Untethered Jailbreak for iOS 9.3.3 is not coming, Pangu confirms

The Pangu jailbreak released for iOS 9.3.3 is semi-tethered that requires users to re-jailbreak every time their device reboots. There has been many confusions related to the jailbreak such as a 32-bit support, which the team confirmed yesterday that they have no plans to release.

The team recently cleared up the question on whether or not 32-bit devices would ever be supported by the iOS 9.3.3 jailbreak, and now they appear to have confirmed that an untethered jailbreak for iOS 9.3.3 isn’t going to happen.

We’ve been seeing comment after comment in the various postings we do here on our website on the new jailbreak about how people want to wait to jailbreak iOS 9.3.3 until an untethered jailbreak for the firmware is released instead of using this rather odd semi-untethered jailbreak that utilizes certificates. The semi-untethered boot process isn’t hard, but it can be inconvenient.

Without a doubt, people seem to agree that the hassle of side-loading the jailbreak app is too much of a pain to have to do every time the certificate expires. Unfortunately for those waiting on an untethered jailbreak, Pangu has confirmed on Reddit that one for iOS 9.3.3 is not being worked on, so you might not want to hold your breath:

Since we will not be seeing an untethered jailbreak for iOS 9.3.3, many people who have been waiting on one are probably going to be disappointed. Nevertheless, a jailbreak is a jailbreak and the community has been asking for one for the latest versions of iOS 9 for a long time, so it’s not all bad; at least we have something.
