What is Jailbreaking?

Jailbreaking is the process of removing software restrictions imposed by Apple on iOS, iPadOS, and other Apple operating systems. By exploiting security vulnerabilities, jailbreaking grants root access to the device's file system and allows software not authorized by Apple to be installed and run.

For AppleTV2,1, 8 jailbreak tools have been publicly released, covering iOS 4.1 – 7.1.21. Tools are available for Apple TV, macOS, Windows, Linux.

A tethered jailbreak requires a computer to boot the device every time it restarts. A semi-tethered allows the device to boot normally but without jailbreak active until re-applied. A semi-untethered lets you re-apply the jailbreak from an app on the device itself. A fully untethered jailbreak persists across reboots with no action needed - the most convenient type.
