At the moment, jailbreak is not only not dead, but also thriving like never before. Recently, several jailbreak tools have been released. Users don't even know which one to choose.
In addition, registration in the Installer5 beta testing program, an alternative to Cydia, has recently begun. Jay Freeman is also working on updating Cydia for iOS 11. If Installer5 turns out to be of the same quality as its developers promise, then many people will simply stop using Cydia.
However, this will only happen if Installer5 is more or at least as convenient as Cydia. Many users will want to use both applications at once.
These arguments should be enough to make you believe the first sentence of this article. Now let's get to the fun part!
Electra jailbreak is the only jailbreak for iOS 11 that allows you to install themes and tweaks. But there is one 'but' – you have to do it manually by copying files. It's not as fast or as convenient as it would be with Cydia support. Besides, not many people know how to do it. If you also do not know how to install tweaks manually, our detailed step-by-step instructions will help you.

In addition, using this method, you can damage system files, which can cause the jailbreak to stop working, and you can lose your data.
Fortunately, there is an Electralyzed app that automatically installs tweaks. You only need to enter your IP address and password. After that, you only need to press one button, and the tweak will install itself.
Finding useful and high-quality tweaks is also not easy. There are already a large number of jailbreak apps and tweaks available for iOS 11, and finding the best ones can be difficult. Only a small number of them will really make your device better.
That is why we have compiled for you the 10 best jailbreak tweaks compatible with Electra.
