How to Jailbreak the iPhone 7 Plus in 2025 (The Best Method)

If you own an iPhone 7 Plus and want to unlock its full potential, jailbreaking is still possible in 2025 — and it’s easier than ever. By using AltStore, TrollStore, and the Dopamine jailbreak, you can safely jailbreak iOS 15 through iOS 16.5 on your iPhone 7 Plus.

This is the most reliable method as of August 2025, and the same process applies to the iPhone 8, iPhone X, and other supported A10/A11 devices.


Why Jailbreak the iPhone 7 Plus?

The iPhone 7 Plus may be older, but it’s still a strong device. Jailbreaking allows you to:

  • Install powerful tweaks and themes
  • Run apps Apple doesn’t allow on the App Store
  • Customise your device far beyond stock iOS
  • Use advanced tools for privacy, gaming, and productivity

Step-by-Step Guide to Jailbreak iPhone 7 Plus

Step 1: Install AltServer

  • Download and install iTunes and iCloud on your computer (Windows users only).
  • Download AltServer from the official site.
  • Plug your iPhone 7 Plus into your computer via USB.
  • Open AltServer and install AltStore onto your iPhone.

Step 2: Install TrollStore

  • Open AltStore on your iPhone.
  • Use it to sideload and install TrollStore.
  • TrollStore is what makes permanent signing possible (you won’t need to keep reinstalling your jailbreak app).

Step 3: Install Dopamine Jailbreak

  • Once TrollStore is installed, open it.
  • Use TrollStore to install the Dopamine jailbreak app.
  • Dopamine supports iOS 15 up to iOS 16.5, making it perfect for the iPhone 7 Plus.

Step 4: Jailbreak Your iPhone 7 Plus

  • Open the Dopamine app.
  • Tap “Jailbreak”.
  • Your device will respring (restart the UI).
  • That’s it! Your iPhone 7 Plus is now jailbroken.

Re-Jailbreaking After Restart

This method is semi-tethered — which means that after a reboot, you’ll need to reopen Dopamine and tap Re-Jailbreak. Thanks to TrollStore, the app stays signed permanently, so you never have to reinstall it.
