The RootHide Bootstrap is a powerful tool that, albeit not a jailbreak, allows users to inject certain jailbreak tweaks inside of apps on their device. It can be installed with TrollStore for a perma-signed user experience. It is the only way apart from semi-jailbreaks such as Serotonin and NathanLR to enjoy jailbreak tweaks on A12 and newer devices running iOS & iPadOS 16.6 or later.
