I have some cool apps on my device. How do I preserve them?
That’s mostly done with a Jailbreak and the tweak Clutch as well as MTerminal. I’ll probably do a complete tutorial sometime.
Jailbreaking? How do I Jailbreak?
There are multiple tools for Jailbreaking. Check which tool works for your device and version first. I recommend this site. [ https://ios.cfw.guide/get-started/ ]
What are Blobs? How do I save them?
SHSH Blobs can help you downgrade on old iOS devices. You can check if you have some saved with iFaith (works best with Windows 7) [https://github.com/iH8sn0w/iFaith/releases]. Using them works best with this Downgrading Kit [https://github.com/LukeZGD/Legacy-iOS-Kit]. You can also save them yourself with the Downgrading Kit, if you have a "rare" version on your device for example.
ONLY SAVE ONBOARD BLOBS WITH IFAITH ON WINDOWS 7 AND BELOW!
BECAUSE IT CAN BRICK YOUR DEVICE.
