What Is Odyssey Jailbreak?

Odyssey is an iOS 13 jailbreak developed by the Odyssey Team, led by CoolStar.

It supports compatible iPhone and iPad devices running iOS 13.0 through iOS 13.7.

Odyssey allows users to install the Sileo package manager, add repositories and download supported jailbreak tweaks.

Unlike computer-based jailbreak tools, Odyssey runs its jailbreak process directly from an installed iPhone or iPad application.

You can install Odyssey IPA using AltStore or another compatible IPA installation method.

After successfully jailbreaking, open Sileo to explore available packages, install compatible tweaks and customize supported iOS features.

Odyssey uses the Procursus bootstrap and libhooker to provide its jailbreak environment.

The jailbreak is semi-untethered. After restarting your iPhone, you normally need to open Odyssey and activate the jailbreak again.

Odyssey v1.4.3 is the latest release listed by the developer. This version includes an updated Sileo package manager.

Odyssey is designed for iOS 13 and does not jailbreak iOS 14 or newer versions.
