Jailbreaking an iOS 13 device can become very complicated if you don’t know what you’re doing. But Odyssey is the right software to try for such an action if you’re looking to jailbreak iOS and iPadOS versions 13-13.7. The iOS 13 is a version released back in late 2019, which means that there still are a lot of people using it.

Thanks to idownloadblog.com, we have the exact steps to take to get it going with the Odyssey jailbreak for your iOS 13 device. But be aware that you should never jailbreak a device unless you have complete confidence in what you’re doing! Odyssey relies on the Sileo package. First and foremost, you need to learn how to install the Odyssey jailbreak, and you can do it using AltStore. Here are the steps to configure AltStore:

  1. Head over to altstore.io to download AltStore.
  2. Launch AltStore.
  3. From the app’s menu, choose the Install Mail Plug-in option.
  4. Confirm your choice in the prompt that appears. You may need to enter the password of your Mac.
  5.  Access your Mail app and go to Preferences from the Menu Bar.
  6. Click General and Manage-Plug-ins.
  7. Select the checkbox that appears next to AltPlugin.mailbundle.
  8. Hit the Apply and Restart mail option.

The next step is to install AltStore itself, so here’s what you need to do:

  1. Use an MFi-certified cable to connect your iOS device to a computer.
  2. Choose the Menu Bar, where you can click the AltScore icon and then select Install AltStore -> [the name of your device]
  3. Use your Apple ID to log in and hit the install button.
  4. Select Continue if a prompt tells you that AltStore has already been used on another device.
  5. You should see a message telling you that the installation has been successful.
  6. While AltStore should now be on the Home screen, you’ll need to enter your Apple IDafter accessing Settings -> General -> Device Management.
  7. Select the blue Trust button, and hit the red Trust button when prompted.

Since AltStore should now be configured, let’s see how to install Odyssey with AltStore:

  1. Head over to theodyssey.dev using your iOS device’s browser and hit that big blue download button.
  2. Choose the version you want to install, and hit the Install via AltStore button that will appear underneath.
  3. Confirm your choice in the prompt.
  4. Odyssey will appear as an installed app as soon as AltStore finishes side-loading the .ipa file.
  5. Launch Odyssey from the Home screen.
  6. Select the Jailbreak button.
  7. Be patient, and a message will tell you that a reboot is needed to continue.
  8. After the restart, you can continue the jailbreaking process by relaunching the Odyssey app and hit the Jailbreak button once again.

‘That’s all, your iOS device should now be jailbroken!
