Please Note: As Unc0ver jailbreak v3.5.2 is a semi-untethered jailbreak you are bound to various conditions. In fact, in every time you reboot the device, you will be dropped to stock state. So after every reboot, you need to rerun the jailbreak app and regain jailbreak privileges. And at the same time Unc0ver jailbreak is bound to jailbreak expiry as with the added certificate. So in case if you have used the usual free Apple ID, you need to resign the jailbreak in every week to keep jailbreak features. But for those who have used developer Apple ID can keep the jailbreak safe for about 12 months without expiry.
