checkra1n
checkra1n is a semi-tethered jailbreak tool for iOS devices (iPhone 5s through iPhone X, iOS 12.0–14.8.1) and tvOS. It allows users to gain root access and customize their devices beyond Apple's restrictions. The macOS version runs on your Mac to initiate the jailbreak process on a connected iOS device via USB, requiring re-jailbreaking after each device reboot. It's primarily used by power users and developers who want deep system customization, tweaks, or access to unofficial packages.
