Download Updated Cydia Impactor for iOS 11
It is said to be believed that the latest version of Cydia Impactor supports iOS 11, but I don’t think so. I have tried 2 months ago on my iPhone 6s Plus with iOS 11 and it didn’t work.
Now, I have tested it with my iPhone X (I don’t have my old phone now to test it now) but not working for me.
Try it yourself and enjoy side loading apps to your iOS 11 device if it works for you. Meanwhile, you can download it from the official website.
If you have installed the software already on your device, open it, update the current version to the latest version.
