Play Pokemon GO despite jailbreak - how it works
With the latest update, Niantic is blocking Pokémon GO for jailbreak owners. This practical tip shows how you can play the hype game despite jailbreaking.
Keep playing Pokémon GO thanks to jailbreak tweak
In order to make life difficult for hackers and cheaters in Pokémon GO, the developers took a big step in the last update: All users of an iPhone or iPad with a jailbreak were excluded from the game. In these cases, the app crashes directly when the game starts. With a little trick you can start Pokémon GO despite the jailbreak and go hunting again.
- To do this, open Cydia on your iPhone or iPad and switch to the "Sources" tab below.
- At the top right, tap "Edit" and then "Add".
- Enter the URL "//beta.unlimapps.com/" in the text field and add this source to Cydia using the "Add Source" button.
- After Cydia has downloaded all the data, tap on "Return to Cydia".
- Finally, look for the "xCon for Pokémon GO" tweak and tap "Install".
- After installation, you can close Cydia and restart Pokémon GO as usual.
