Why is the Neko online tool so special?
The online tool is the only supportive method for iOS 18 and above up to iOS 18.2 beta because Neko Trollstore and Neko Sideloadly tools are outdated. Both Trollstore and Sideloadly do not support iOS 18.
The Neko JB jailbreak tool supports Cydia, Zebra, and Sileo package managers. So, you can choose the compatible package manager after completing the jailbreak process.
The Neko online tool works as a semi-jailbreak and does not access the device's software file system. Therefore, it does not void your Apple warranty.
Safe to use - The online method is always more secure than the TrollStore and Sideloading methods. It’s not mandatory to back up the device's data before starting the process.
Neko TrollStore and Sideloading methods have limited device compatibility, but the online tool supports all the latest iPhone models, including the iPhone 16, iPhone 15, iPhone 14, iPhone 13, and iPhone 12 series.
The Neko sideloading PC tool is complicated and not user-friendly. The online method, however, is much simpler and requires fewer steps. Even new users can easily understand it.
Most online jailbreaking methods have a 7-day revoke period and only work for 7 days after installation. However, the Neko online tool can be used until you uninstall it.
Latest Method - The Unc0ver and Checkra1n semi-untethered tools are outdated and no longer support the latest versions. Palera1n is the most current semi-tethered tool available.
