Phœnix is a semi-untethered jailbreak for 32-bit devices, primarily intended for devices running iOS 9.3.5. It was written by tihmstar and S1guza (assisted by Max Bazaliy, Luca Todesco and jk9357). Like its predecessor, Home Depot, Phœnix works by sideloading an IPA using Cydia Impactor. Released on 7 August, 2017, almost a year after the release of iOS 9.3.5, it brought a long-awaited jailbreaking solution to devices for which iOS 9.3.5 is the only signed version. Phœnix exploits the fact that Apple never properly fixed the vulnerabilities exploited by Home Depot (Pegasus). It is not yet known if it is compatible with iOS 8.4.1, but the IPA can be installed on iOS 8.4.1 and higher.
