Chinese team “Pangu” have released a jailbreak for iOS 7.1.X, and compared to previous sketchy releases, this jailbreak does indeed seem to work. While the jailbreak installs Cydia jailbreak package installer application, it also installs a sketchy Chinese pirated app installer.

Currently the jailbreak tool only works on Windows however plans of a future Mac OS X version are in the works. The download file takes up a whooping 70 MB which does raise some warning flags, as to whether the file includes more than just the jailbreak tool.

Famed jailbreak developer iH8sn0w commented on Twitter:

Aside from the piracy store and enterprise certificate… The pangu.io jailbreak does not have “spyware” or malicious trails.—

If you want to test the jailbreak feel free to download it from their site, and yes the whole site is indeed in Chinese.
