The launch of iOS 11 in September opened a wide range of possibilities to make the Apple device experience more remarkable for users. Although, this also served as another challenge for jail breakers as the Cupertino-based tech giant has imposed tighter security measures to keep the latest firmware version unexploitable. Fortunately for users wanting to get their iOS 11 settings customized, there are early positive signs that a jailbreak tool will be released soon.

As reported by Value Walk, Italian developer Luca Todesco might have already made the first steps to successfully jailbreak the iOS 11. The popular software expert, who also developed some jailbreak tools for the iOS 10, teased his successful WebKit leak exploit on Twitter. This suggests that Todesco has already reached root status on the iOS 11 version, increasing the likelihood that the iOS 11 jailbreak tool is on its way.

Todesco has gained popularity in the mobile tech industry with his studies on existing software platforms. He has released a number of bug fixes and system solutions for the benefit of the public. However, he became more popular by challenging Apple in exploiting the iOS 10, which seemed to be an unexploitable firmware version back then. It appears that Todesco will continue the streak with the current iOS 11, although he already mentioned that he will no longer be involved in jail breaking works.

The announcement of Todesco that he will be focusing on his private work from now on is not a good sign for the iOS 11 jailbreak development. If ever he is able to come up with a successful exploit on the firmware, Todesco may not share it with the public. Nevertheless, the progress made by Todesco so far in exploiting the iOS 11 means that other developers can achieve the same feat. Furthermore, the iOS 11 was only a few weeks old when Todesco discovered the WebKit leak exploit, suggesting a huge potential that the latest firmware version is jailbreakable.

Other than Todesco, there are other software experts who have given hope that a working iOS 11 jailbreak tool will be out in the near future. For one, KeenLabs was able to exploit the firmware by holding an iOS 11 jailbreak demo in June. Although, it should be noted that the iOS 11 at that time was still undergoing beta testing.

The best thing that the users can do to jailbreak the iOS settings is by downgrading to the firmware version that is supported by the current jailbreak tools. Unfortunately, Apple has stopped signing the iOS 10.3.3 and the first iOS 11 version, which will prevent users from reverting to older iOS updates.
