What is Rootless Jailbreak?
Rootless Jailbreak or RootlessJB for iOS 12.4.8 Jailbreak is originally developed and released by Jake James. Now, it has been updated by Brandon Plank to work with iOS 12.4.8. Even a package installer has also been released called Saily by Lakr, although we know rootless jailbreak doesn’t come with any package manager by default.
It’s a Jailbreak that is very simple in its nature, but you can run tweaks on it.

Remember as mentioned at the start, rootlessjb takes a lot of attempts so it requires your patience. It might take 10-20 attempts to jailbreak your device successfully. The success ratio of Rootless jailbreak is too low.
- Step 6:
Open the application and tap on the jailbreak, once you do that, one of three things will happen. Either the device will restart, or the exploit will fail, or jailbreak iOS 12.4.8 will be done successfully.
If your device restarts, open the Rootless jailbreak app again and try jailbreaking again. In case the app stops working, delete the app and install that again.
If you see the Exploit Failed on the jailbreak button, force restart your device and open the app again.
When you press the jailbreak button, if the numbers go up from 1/12, it means the jailbreak process is started. The exploit’s success rate is too low, so keep patience and try again.
Remember that, if these numbers stuck on 11/12 or 12/12, it means the jailbreak is done so you can quit the rootlessJB app.
