Just in time for celebrating the holidays, fans of the iOS jailbreaking tool were delighted with the public release of the Yalu iOS 10 jailbreak tool by Luca Todesco. However, only a beta version is currently available and only a limited array of devices can install it.

It is common knowledge in the technology world that beta versions still have some bugs since it is not the final item yet. So, some developers have reminders and instructions for iOS users who have been waiting to finally use a jailbreak for iOS 10.

1redDrop reminds iOS 10 jailbreak fans that the currently available tool by Todesco is not compatible with all devices. The report mentioned that the Yalu iOS 10 jailbreak tool beta version will only work with iPhone 6S, 6S Plus, iPad Pro, iPhone 7, and iPhone 7 Plus running with iOS 10.0.1, iOS 10.0.2, iOS 10.0.3, iOS 10.1, and iOS 10.1.1.

Another reminder that 1redDrop shared is that people who want to install the Yalu tool "must be a registered Apple Developer and have Xcode installed on your Mac" and that the computer to be used for installing the tool must be using the latest version of iTunes - the 12.5.4 update. Another major tip is to backup all the data in the device with iTunes or iCloud.

According to the same report, those who would want to try to install the Yalu jailbreak tool must disable TouchID, Passcode, and the Find My Phone app. These can all be reactivated after installing the jailbreak tool.

After making sure that these reminders were followed, iOS users need to make sure that they also have the Cydia Impactor app and then they can proceed to download the Yalu jailbreak tool. 1redDrop provides the step-by-step process of installing the Yalu iOS 10 and 10.1.1 jailbreak tools.

On other news, Apple just released the second beta version of iOS 10.2.1 last week and it has been available for use for those who have signed up for Apple's beta testing program.
