#iPad Pro iOS 11

[annlynngilbertphotography]

Early morning on the lake. Second week with my iPhone 15 Pro Max and IOS 17.1, it replaced my iPhone 11. Still using my iPad Pro, have not been using my DLSR and other cameras much. — Central Florida, Tuesday, October 31, 2023, 7:30 AM EST.

[photon-ephemera]

I have never been an Apple iDevice person but imma be honest, since Procreate put out the statement on anti-AI generated images and stuff, I have been looking into buying an iPad purely so I can start learning how to use Procreate (gdi for only being on iOS)

I have 3 pays until my birthday so HOPEFULLY I will be able to have enough saved to get it as a bday present to myself lol. I also have a con in a couple weeks so. Who knows how that will turn out. Artist Alleys make me wanna spend all of my money...I need to be careful :') I'm going both days so I need to be even more responsible LOL

Still umming and ahhing between the 11" and the 13" iPad Air M2 (I cannot justify the Pro, oof, I ain't made of money), and I definitely want the 256GB one. Obviously need the Apple Pencil too (Pro? Maybe?). Then there's the stuff like the case, need nib protectors too bc I want a paperlike screen protector bc I have a Samsung tablet atm and it's a glossy screen and it kinda sucks for drawing on. My Cintiq is a more matte screen which is SO MUCH NICER to draw on.

I have ideas and I want a portable option so I don't have to just sit at my desk, I can sit anywhere in the house or even bring it when I go out places, etc, etc...also Procreate has some really neat features (I love you CSP but I am not paying for 2 subscriptions) I was trying it out on my sister's iPad and it's pretty nice indeed, I could get used to this. Also the amount of user-made assets and tutorials for Procreate is so cool, I know I can definitely find something that's in the realm of what I'm wanting to do :3

Also I am one of those people who loves customising their devices and it's so much easier to do on an Apple device over an Android. I use a Samsung phone and I do have it to a point where I really like how I've customised it, but my tablet is another story - it's okay but ehhhh, I want it different. Yes I am going to change my icons when I get my iPad, this thing is gonna be so fun when I am done with it. Still thinking about if I should get a clear back folio case so I can stick prints and stuff in the back or if I should just go for a regular folio case, but that's a problem for idk, a few weeks from now.

Oh god my birthday is in just over a month-

Anyway yeah. Hoping to get the iPad and stuff around my birthday but knowing me it'll prooooobably be closer to Christmas but also I hate waiting so we'll see if my impatience is stronger than my impulsively spending on other stuff I don't need - place your bets now /hj

Why Cydia Plus Special?

Cydia, once the reigning app manager for older iOS versions, held a prominent position in the jailbreaking community. It was the default choice for enthusiasts who sought to customize their devices beyond Apple’s restrictions.

Collaborating seamlessly with popular jailbreak tools like Checkra1n, Unc0ver, Chimera, Electra, Pangu, TaiG, Yalu Jailbreak, Meridian, and Phoenix, Cydia became synonymous with the jailbreaking experience.

However, in 2018, the original Cydia developer, Saurik, ceased updating the platform. The decline in untethered jailbreaking’s popularity contributed to this decision.

Cydia Plus is a modified version developed by the Cydia Plus team. This alternative to Cydia caters specifically to the latest iOS versions. It empowers users to install jailbreak tweaks and third-party apps without requiring an untethered jailbreak on their devices. A fresh approach for a new era of iOS customization.

Cydia iOS 26 – Take Complete Control of Your iPhone

Apple iPhones are secure, sleek, and simple—but they also restrict what you can change on your own device. Want to rearrange system settings, install custom apps, or change how your phone looks? Cydia iOS 26 is the answer. It opens up powerful features, advanced tools, and deep customization options Apple doesn’t allow.

With iOS 26 now out, more users want access to Cydia iOS 26. This guide explains what Cydia does, why Cydia iOS 26 is important, and how to install it the easy and safe way using iNstantJB—no complex steps or a computer needed.

What Is Cydia?

Cydia is a third-party app store for jailbroken iPhones and iPads. Unlike the App Store, it lets you download tweaks, themes, system tools, and apps that Apple doesn’t support. These additions can change how your device looks, behaves, and performs.

With Cydia iOS 26, these options now work with the iOS 26 update. You can finally use advanced tools to personalize your device right the way you want.

Why Cydia iOS 26?

Apple’s iOS 26 brought new features, but also tightened security. That made it harder to install mods and tweaks. Cydia iOS 26 clears that barrier. It gives users full access to system-level tools, themes, and hidden features that Apple doesn’t allow.

Whether you want a fresh theme, improved battery life, or gesture controls, Cydia iOS 26 lets you do all that—and more.

How to Get Cydia iOS 26

Cydia can't be installed like regular apps; it needs a jailbreak. The most secure and fastest way is through iNstantJB. Here’s how it works:

Open Safari on your iPhone or iPad.

Go to: https://www.instantjb.com/cydia-ios-26-0-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-jailbreak.html

Tap “Start Jailbreak”.

Follow on-screen steps.

After completion, Cydia appears on your home screen.

Try iNstantJB to get Cydia—it is the best way to download a Cydia alternative. No PC, no cables, no hassle.

What Can You Do with Cydia iOS 26?

Once installed, Cydia iOS 26 gives you access to powerful tweaks and custom themes. Here are some top features:

1. Full Customization

Change icons, fonts, status bar, widgets, control center—make your iPhone truly yours.

2. Hidden System Tweaks

Add gesture shortcuts, record calls, lock apps, manage files—all with tools Apple doesn't include.

3. App Freedom

Install emulators, screen recorders, torrent apps, and modded software that don’t appear on the App Store.

4. Performance Enhancements

Clean up junk files, boost speed, extend battery life with tools like iCleaner and BatteryLife.

5. Advanced Control

Access root files and deep system settings using apps like Filza File Manager.

Popular Tweaks for Cydia iOS 26

Here are some top tweaks available after installing Cydia iOS 26:

SnowBoard – A theming engine to completely change your device’s look

Filza File Manager – Full access to internal files

iCleaner Pro – Clean junk and speed up your iPhone

Activator – Add shortcuts and gesture controls

BatteryLife – Monitor and improve your battery’s health

YouTube Reborn – Block ads and add extra player settings

These tweaks bring real value and are easy to set up once Cydia’s installed.

Devices That Support Cydia iOS 26

Cydia works on all devices running iOS 26, including:

iPhone 15, 15 Plus, 15 Pro, 15 Pro Max

iPhone 14 & 13 series

iPhone 12, 11, X, SE (2nd & 3rd gen)

iPad Pro, iPad Air, iPad (9th & 10th gen)

If your device is on iOS 26.x, iNstantJB can jailbreak it, giving you full access to Cydia iOS 26.

Is Jailbreaking Safe?

Yes—modern jailbreaks like iNstantJB are stable and reliable. Jailbreaking doesn’t harm devices if you follow these tips:

Back up your device before jailbreak

Use trusted sources for tweaks

Avoid pirated apps

Remove issues via Safe Mode or restore if problems arise

If you need to, you can always remove the jailbreak and restore your device to a standard iOS setup.

Removing Cydia iOS 26

Changed your mind? Here’s how to undo everything:

Option 1: Restore in iTunes or Finder

Connect your device and restore. This removes Cydia and jailbreak completely.

Option 2: Use Cydia Eraser

Some jailbreaks include Cydia Eraser, which removes everything safely while keeping your data intact.

After this, your iPhone returns to a normal, stock setup.

Common Questions

Q: Do I lose data when jailbreaking? A: No—your files stay safe as long as you follow instructions.

Q: Can I still install App Store apps? A: Yes—Cydia runs alongside the App Store.

Q: Does jailbreaking void warranty? A: Apple may deny warranty if Cydia is detected, but restoring to stock removes traces.

Q: Is it legal? A: Yes—jailbreaking is legal in most countries, including the U.S.

Final Take

If you want full control, customization, and powerful tools on your iPhone or iPad, Cydia iOS 26 is essential. It offers features Apple doesn’t allow, and iNstantJB makes the jailbreak process simple and secure.

There’s no risk, and the rewards are customization, added features, and complete control at your fingertips.

iPad 4 được sản xuất năm nào?

iPad 4, hay còn được gọi là iPad thế hệ thứ 4, được Apple chính thức công bố vào ngày 23/10/2012 và phát hành vào 2/11/2012. Đây là phiên bản nâng cấp của iPad 3, mang đến nhiều cải tiến đáng chú ý về hiệu suất và công nghệ.

Xem thêm bài viết: Có nên mua iPad 4 cũ không?

1. Bối cảnh ra đời của iPad 4

Vào năm 2012, thị trường máy tính bảng phát triển mạnh mẽ, với sự cạnh tranh từ nhiều hãng công nghệ như Samsung, Google và Microsoft. Apple đã giới thiệu iPad 3 vào tháng 3/2012, nhưng chỉ sau 7 tháng, họ tiếp tục ra mắt iPad 4 nhằm cải thiện hiệu suất và mang lại trải nghiệm tốt hơn cho người dùng. Việc Apple nhanh chóng thay thế iPad 3 bằng iPad 4 khiến nhiều người bất ngờ, nhưng điều này giúp hãng duy trì vị thế dẫn đầu trong phân khúc máy tính bảng cao cấp.

2. Những điểm nổi bật của iPad 4

Dù thiết kế tổng thể của iPad 4 không có quá nhiều thay đổi so với iPad 3, nhưng Apple đã nâng cấp đáng kể về phần cứng:

Vi xử lý mạnh mẽ hơn: iPad 4 được trang bị chip Apple A6X, có hiệu suất gấp đôi so với chip A5X trên iPad 3. Điều này giúp máy hoạt động mượt mà hơn khi chơi game, xem phim hay thực hiện các tác vụ nặng.

Màn hình Retina sắc nét: iPad 4 tiếp tục sử dụng màn hình Retina 9.7 inch với độ phân giải 2048 x 1536 pixel, mang lại hình ảnh sắc nét, màu sắc chân thực.

Cổng kết nối Lightning: Đây là dòng iPad đầu tiên sử dụng cổng Lightning thay vì cổng 30-pin truyền thống, giúp việc sạc pin và truyền dữ liệu nhanh hơn.

Camera trước được nâng cấp: iPad 4 có camera trước 1.2 MP hỗ trợ FaceTime HD, cải thiện chất lượng video call so với camera VGA của iPad 3.

Hỗ trợ LTE tốc độ cao: Phiên bản iPad 4 có hỗ trợ mạng di động giúp tốc độ truy cập internet nhanh hơn.

3. Thời gian ngừng sản xuất

Sau khi ra mắt, iPad 4 trở thành một trong những mẫu máy tính bảng được yêu thích. Tuy nhiên, đến tháng 10/2013, Apple đã giới thiệu iPad Air, đánh dấu sự kết thúc của dòng iPad truyền thống với thiết kế viền dày. Đến tháng 3/2014, iPad 4 chính thức bị ngừng sản xuất.

4. iPad 4 có còn đáng sử dụng không?

Tính đến nay, iPad 4 đã hơn 10 năm tuổi và không còn được Apple hỗ trợ cập nhật phần mềm mới (dừng lại ở iOS 10.3.4). Do đó, máy không thể chạy các ứng dụng mới hoặc hoạt động mượt mà như những dòng iPad hiện đại. Tuy nhiên, nếu chỉ dùng để đọc tài liệu, lướt web cơ bản hoặc làm thiết bị dự phòng, iPad 4 vẫn có thể đáp ứng được nhu cầu.

Kết luận

iPad 4 được Apple sản xuất và ra mắt vào năm 2012, mang lại nhiều nâng cấp về hiệu năng và công nghệ so với thế hệ trước. Tuy nhiên, sau hơn một thập kỷ, chiếc iPad này đã trở nên lỗi thời so với các tiêu chuẩn hiện đại. Nếu bạn đang tìm kiếm một chiếc iPad để sử dụng lâu dài, có lẽ bạn nên cân nhắc những mẫu mới hơn như iPad Air hoặc iPad Pro.
