Jay Freeman, better known as saurik in the jailbreak community, has finally released the final version of Cydia 1.1.28 for jailbroken iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices. 



For those don’t know, Cydia 1.1.28 is the first version of Cydia which brings native support for 64-bit devices, as well as full support for iOS 10-10.2 yalu102 jailbreak. 


Additionally, Cydia now uses APT 1.14~b, which is basically a “major update to the core package management logic used by Cydia. This library, which is shared with Linux distributions such as Debian and Ubuntu, is an industry standard, which Cydia has been excited to share. For purposes of performance and reliability, Cydia had a number of patches to the (rather old) copy of APT it had been using. 


It turns out APT’s upstream has been paying attention, and was excited to have us update.”

The usual bug fixes and other under-the-hood improvements are of course also part of this latest Cydia release, and best of all, it even supports jailbroken devices running older iOS versions such as iOS 9, iOS 8 and even iOS 7 and below.

The screenshot of the changelog can be found below.
