h3lix is a semi-untethered jailbreak for 32-bit devices running any version of iOS 10, developed by tihmstar and Siguza. h3lix works by sideloading an IPA using Cydia Impactor. The first release candidate was released on 24 December, 2017. It is one of two jailbreak projects based on the v0rtex exploit, the other being Saïgon.

History

The development started shortly after the announcement of the v0rtex exploit in early December of 2017, and the first release candidate was published on tihmstar’s webpage on Christmas Eve. Initial testing by the developers found it to be compatible with iOS 10.3.3 on the N42AP (iPhone5,2), while users also found it to be compatible with other A6 devices on the same version. It was, however, reported problems when attempting to use it on older iOS 10 versions.[1]
