I’m really sick of not having the shortcuts and JB tweaks on my phone. Haven’t been able to Jailbreak in a while. My phone is running iOS 11.3.1, is there still a jailbreak for this or would I have to update?

Yes just Google it and you will find a jailbreak. Remember you don’t pay to jailbreak, so if you see one asking for money, it’s a scam.

iPhone 6 ios 12.5.1, my options seem limited.

I also have iPhone 7. Curios which JB would be optimal regardless of ios for that device?

Any advice or opinions would be helpful.

According to this page you can jailbreak the current version of iOS (14.4) using checkra1n:

Jailbreak/14.x - The iPhone Wiki

www.theiphonewiki.com www.theiphonewiki.com

Pay heed to the notes on that page.

This is the official checkra1n website:

Going to Apple store now to update to 14.4, fingers crossed it doesn’t kill my battery life

According to that Jailbreak page iOS 14.4 on an iPhone 7 can be jailbroken with checkra1n.

iOS 14.5 is in beta now and after it gets officially released Apple will stop "signing" 14.4 soon after. iOS 14.5 may not be jailbreakable…no way to know right now.

When I try to download chimera jailbreak using Tweakbox I get this error. Would doing a full restore from previously Unc0ver jailbroken phone have prevented this rather than simply updating?
