I have a i phone 13 and running ios 17.5.1

#

I want to do this to run 32 bit games

mighty marsh
#

no

#

if you want to run 32-bit games I recommend getting something like an iPhone 5s/iPad air 1/iPad mini 2 and downgrading it to iOS 10

Is there any way to jailbreak my phone?

mighty marsh
#

no

#

especially not for an iphone 13

vernal birch
#

I dont know how and dont think its possible

drifting monolith
#

yeah but to clarify that's just not possible outright

#

you can't get an iphone 6 and run 32 bit apps on it unless it's on ios 10 or older

vernal birch
#

I might buy a VERY old phone

#

Im thinking of doing it

drifting monolith
#

do what they said

vernal birch
drifting monolith
#

an old 5s, mini 1/2 or air 1 are fairly cheap

vernal birch
#

What about a extremely old device

#

Would it technically still work

#

Because its lower than ios 10

#

Uh

drifting monolith
#

and what you want to run

vernal birch
#

And it aint that powerful

#

Its not gonna crash any i phone

drifting monolith
#

ok so then you have to worry about version support

#

even though it's a 32-bit app on a 32-bit device, an ios 3 device won't run an app made for ios 8

#

I had a old i pad mini in 2018

#

I would play it on

#

It was a very old device

#

Somehow ran it

drifting monolith
#

do you have that

vernal birch
#

No

#

Sadly

drifting monolith
#

ok so what do you have

vernal birch
#

I wish

drifting monolith
#

you said you have an old device

vernal birch
#

I have 3 devices ive kept but the one i need is gone

drifting monolith
#

ok but what devices

vernal birch
#

I have a i phone 13 and a i pad mini 6th gen and idk the other one

#

But it definitely isnt lower than ios 10

drifting monolith
#

like ios 12?

vernal birch
#

Probably

drifting monolith
#

i mean you can just buy an iPad Mini

#

they're very cheap

vernal birch
#

How cheap?

drifting monolith
#

idk check

#

i don't know your market

vernal birch
#

Will they add support for jailbreaking on newer devices

drifting monolith
#

yes, current highest for the iPhone 13 and iPad Mini 6 is 16.5 and lower

#

you can't downgrade to that

vernal birch
#

I have a 13

#

Tho

drifting monolith
#

ok

#

so you'll have to wait for people to figure out how to jailbreak it

vernal birch
#

So i can jailbreak?

drifting monolith
#

no

vernal birch
#

Is it still possible to use tweaks with jailbreaking nowadays

drifting monolith
#

yeah that's mainly why you'd want to

vernal birch
#

Yeah

drifting monolith
#

if you want to pick an iPad, the Mini 2 can be downgraded to 10.3.3

#

the Mini 1 can be downgraded to 8.4.1 which is very useful

vernal birch
#

Are you sure thats the cheapest possible one to get in a situation like this

vernal birch

#

Legacy iOS Kit

#

works on linux and macos

drifting monolith
#

look on local marketplaces for devices

vernal birch
drifting monolith
#

i don't know what your options are

#

i am not you

vernal birch
#

Well i wanna play 32 bit games but I’m not sure if i wanna spend a lot of money doing it

drifting monolith
#

online second hand marketplaces are often good for that
