Jailbreakers have had their share of issues while installing tweaks on Electra jailbreak toolkit. Here’s a new tool called Tweak Installer that will make the installation process a breeze.


Tweak Installer is a desktop-based Debian package installer for Electra development toolkit. It is developed by Joseph Walden.


This tool also installs tweaks and themes on your Apple device remotely with SFTP. Here’s how it works –

  • Establish an SFTP connection with the target device.

  • Convert the Deb file to an installable format.

  • Transfer it automatically to the required locations on the device’s filesystem (SBInject, Preferences, etc).

Apart from Electra, it also supports Yalu jailbreak for iOS 10-10.2 firmware. However, its utility remains limited because Yalu already comes with Cydia. It has been tested on Yalu (iOS 10.2) and Electra developer toolkit (iOS 11.1.2)
