Hacker andunc0verlead developerPwn20wndhas been on quite the roll lately; just yesterdayhe released unc0ver v2.1.4 to the general public, and he also pushed a bevy of revisions this weekend to the unc0ver v2.2.0 pre-release with bug fixes, performance improvements, and experimental new features. But as it would seem, there’s still more work to be done.
Pwn20wndshared a Tweet Sunday morningdenoting how he’s “actively implementing user requests” to make unc0ver “even better.” The Tweet points to the hacker’s officialGitHubrepository, where unc0ver users can reach out about problems and feature requests via theIssuestab on the web page:
As you might come to expect, openly welcoming feature requests from thejailbreakcommunity is sure to attract some attention. Pwn20wnd has already started implementing some of those requests, beginning with what now appears to be the thirteenth revision to the unc0ver v2.2.0 pre-releasesince its initial conception two weeks ago.
According to the changelog published on Pwn20wnd’s GitHub repository, unc0ver v2.2.0 beta 13 comprises of a novel feature that lets users reset the Cydia app’s cache upon request:
05-08-2025 – v2.2.0~b13 was released for public testing with the following changes:
– Add a switch to reset Cydia cache on request
When Pwn20wndreleased unc0ver v2.1.0 to the massesat the end of 2018, it was touted as the single most significant update to the iOS 11-centric jailbreak tool; however, given the extensive changelog posted for the unc0ver v2.2.0 pre-release thus far, it seems that v2.2.0 will soon bear that title when it’s officially released for production.
At the time of this writing, unc0ver v2.1.4 is the latest public release of the unc0ver jailbreak tool available. The unc0ver v2.2.0 pre-release should be treated as abeta, and you shouldn’t deploy it unless you’re an experienced jailbreaker or developer with basic knowledge about jailbreak-centrictroubleshootingsteps in case something goes awry.
Both versions of unc0ver (the v2.1.4 public release and the v2.2.0 pre-release)can be had from Pwn20wnd’s official GitHub repository. As always, we’ll keep you updated when v2.2.0 comes out of its pre-release stages.
