What Is Meowbrek2 Jailbreak?

Meowbrek2 is an iOS 15 jailbreak application developed by dora2ios for selected older iPhone and iPad devices.

It is designed for compatible devices using A8–A11 processors, including the iPhone 6s, iPhone 7, iPhone 8 and iPhone X.

Meowbrek2 provides a semi-untethered jailbreak experience. This means users can restart their iPhone normally and then open the Meowbrek2 app to enable the jailbreak again.

Earlier versions worked mainly as a re-jailbreak tool for devices already jailbroken using rootless Palera1n. Later builds introduced standalone bootstrap functionality, although certain devices may still require additional setup.

Meowbrek2 is installed using TrollStore and supports a rootless jailbreak environment with compatible tweaks and the Sileo package manager.

The latest documented version is v1.1.7-beta, which improved compatibility checks for newer iOS 15 firmware.

Meowbrek2 does not support iOS 16, iOS 17, iOS 18, iOS 26 or iOS 27.
