The jailbreak tool updates will not stop with unc0ver version 3.4.0. On Thursday, Pwn20wnd posted a series of tweets confirming that the developer is already working on version 3.4.1.

The developer is also working on improving the reliability of the Sock Puppet 2, especially on devices with the A7 chip in unc0ver 3.4.1. Pwn20wnd is also looking for volunteers to test out the next update, specifically those with an iPhone 5S on iOS 12.2.
These updates and the iOS jailbreaking tool itself are free to download on Pwn20wnd’s GitHub page. But the developer also accepts donations through his PayPal and Patreon accounts.
