User Reviews

Hacking your iPhone and iPod touch just got a whole lot easier! For those who don’t want to wait until February, AppSnap at jailbreakme.com is a one-touch instant jailbreak for both iPhone and iPod touch. This is done by visiting the URL http://jailbreakme.com in Safari on your iPhone or iPod touch. Read the directions on the page, scroll to the bottom, and tap Install AppSnapp which loads the TIF hack. You will get full disk access and install Installer.app so you can add pretty much any third party application you like.

After starting the install, Safari will disappear returning you to the main springboard. The iPhone will restart and after some time you will see the slide-to-unlock option. If Safari hangs on the first try, you can force quit Safari by pressing and holding the home button for 4-8 seconds, and trying again.

After you slide-to-unlock you will see the Installer.app icon you your home screen. The process is seemingly as simple as claimed to be. You should also probably upgrade Installer.app at this point. If you want to access the file system on your iPhone or iPod touch, from Installer.app install BSD subsystem/Community Sources/Open SSH. Then you can ssh into your device and use Finder windows to drag and drop files onto your iPhone or iPod touch.

Latest News on AppSnap: AppSnapp has been shut down to comply with Apple’s latest iPhone developer agreement, which prohibits the creation of jailbreak utilities as well as aiding others in the jailbreak process.

Warning! Use iPhone mods and hacks at your own risk! Installing 3rd Party iPhone apps requires you to jailbreak the iPhone before installing the native software and apps which voids your warranty.

   I used the browse to appsnap method with my new 16GB Touch. The process worked smoothly and it helped to look up home made videos illustrating this process on youtube. Once the correct support files are installed, it is possible to install everything and it all works as expected (nicely). My new iPod is now capable of so much more including some helpful network tools that will be invaluable for work. Thanks for putting this high-quality software out there for everyone to use and enjoy!
   BTW, is there a 2.5GB limit to the size of the standard applications folder on the device? I can only seem to install exactly 2.5GB into this folder and I can no longer put any additional packages into the folder (they show up incomplete). I can add additional items all day (for example shortcuts to digg and facebook and groceries etc.) as long as they do not increase the size of the applications folder. I can pull out or uninstall a couple and then I can add a different one at that point. I already have more than enough additional functionality in my device, but it would be nice to add just a few more items especially while I am still showing this thing off to everyone in sight Thanks again!

   I have a bit of an issue and was hoping you could point me in the right direction! I used ibrickr to downgrade to 1.0.2 and then it went on to install jailbreak etc. Short and curlys is that now the iphone when switched on gives me the silver apple and then scrolls through lots of random white text on a black background. Then it stops half way through and reboots, and continues the cycle, for ever!!! Looks like im really in trouble now. Not sure if Apple are gonna help me, kind of hoping some way can as the wife will kill me if she finds out I’ve killed my xmas pressent!!!!!!

   Daniel you need to downgrade to version 1.1.1 as stated several times above. appsnapp will be deleted when your pod updates to version 1.1.2 and is not compatable with version 1.1.2

   search on youtube on how to downgrade from version 1.1.2 to version 1.1.1
