Step 01.
Backup your personal data in iCloud or in iTunes. Check to see if iTunes is updated to latest version!This is really important because you never know what might go wrong while jailbreaking.
Step 02.
On your PC: Now you need to download Cydia Impactor (made by @saurik) and the Yalu jailbreak app (.ipa) from qwertyoruiop's website. Both are zipped and ready to download for Windows, macOS. Unzip the downloaded file and execute the Cydia Impactor executable.Step 03.
On your PC: Connect your iOS device to your computer and make sure you trust the computer on your iPhone, iPad or iPod. Open Cydia Impactor without the "Run as Administrator" option. Drag and drop yalu102_beta7.ipa into Cydia Impactor application window on your desktop computer.
Step 04.
On your PC: Cydia Impactor will now ask you for your AppleID in order to *sign* the ipa file. You can use your AppleID or you can create a new AppleID to use only with Cydia Impactor. Your choice. Click the OK button to continue.Step 05.
On your PC: Cydia Impactor will automatically prepare everything based on your inputs and sign the IPA file. If everything is OK, the IPA file will be installed on your iOS device correctly. If you get error notifications, you probably entered an incorrect Apple ID or password.Step 06.
On your iDevice: Tap the Settings icon, scroll to General and choose Device Management. You then see a developer profile under your "AppleID" heading. Tap the profile to "trust" for this developer. (an internet connection is required to verify the app developer's certificate when establishing trust.)
Step 07.
On your iDevice: Open again the Settings app and make sure you *disable* TouchID and Security Code and also disable the Find My iPhone feature from the iCloud menu.Step 08.
On your iDevice: Find the newly installed Yalu app and run it. Be patient and your device should restart shortly. When it boots up, you should be able to see and run Cydia.
Step 09.
On your iDevice: Re-enable the Find my iPhone option in iCloud settings, also enable your Passcode and TouchID again.Keep in mind the following:
- This is a semi-tethered (if you will) kind of jailbreak, it means that every time you restart your iDevice, you need to re-jailbreak it with the installed Yalu app - just repeat step 08.
- We recommend that you use a burner AppleID to sign the IPA file, just to be safe. Cydia Impactor will only use your AppleID to sign the IPA file, nothing more.

- If the jailbreak process get stuck at some point, restart it. Sometimes it might take a few tries to jailbreak.
