> 17.0 is a year old It's the current iOS major version and apps will support this version for years to come. Those who saved blobs with https://github.com/airsquared/blobsaver can freely switch between new and old iOS versions, e.g. if they have a use case which needs https://trollstore.org/: TrollStore is a tool that allows non-jailbroken iOS users to install and run IPA files without App Store verification. It works on iOS 15.5-16.6.1 and iOS 17.0, and supports automatic app refreshing and resigning.

Those who saved blobs for iOS 16.3.1 can run VMs on their jailbroken Apple Silicon iPad. https://x.com/utmapp/status/1708907045314035986 Apple removed Hypervisor support from XNU in iOS 16.4. Here is a diff of iOS 16.3.1 and iOS 16.4. What this means is that even if a jailbreak/TrollStore comes out for iOS 16.6.1/17.0, there will not be UTM virtualization support, even on M1/M2 iPads.
