Installing Odyssey

For support in English, ask for help on the r/Jailbreak Discord Server.

Odyssey is a semi-untethered jailbreak, meaning it requires an app to re-apply the exploit after a reboot.

The tool is compatible with jailbreaking devices on iOS/iPadOS versions from 13.0 to 13.7.

Due to how semi-untethered jailbreaks work, the app will need to be re-signed once every 7 days.

We will use Sideloadly to install the Odyssey jailbreak application to your iOS device for use in the next step.

WARNING

If you are already jailbroken with another jailbreak (besides Odysseyra1n), make sure to properly remove it before proceeding.

Downloads

Odyssey is currently signed at jailbreaks.app for easy installation without a computer.
