As we have reported earlier Saurik has released a remarkable new tool called Cydia Impactor that
allows users to essentially unjailbreak their iPhone, iPad or iPod touch and bring it back to the stock iOS. What’s so great about this particular tool is that it removes the jailbreak and all traces of it without you having to lose your ability to jailbreak. Normally, when someone wants to remove the jailbreak from his or her device they have to restore it through iTunes. The problem with that method is that your device is updated to the latest available version of iOS, which may or may not be jailbreak-able.

So why would you want to unjailbreak your iOS device using Cydia Impactor? Well below are some of the many scenarios this tool can be useful.
- You are selling the device but don’t want to restore and lose its jailbreak-ability.
- You have an Apple Store appointment and want to temporarily remove the jailbreak.
- You are having troubles with your jailbreak and want to start fresh without restoring it through iTunes.
How to unjailbreak iOS using Cydia Impactor
Before you begin with using the Cydia Impactor to unjailbreak your device, it is advisable to backup your device to iTunes or iCloud. Please note that Cydia Impactor not only removes jailbreak from the device but it also deletes all apps, photos and other data. After the process is complete you have to set up the device again just like you do after an iTunes restore.1. After you have created a backup of your device, on your jailbroken iPhone, iPad or iPod touch launch Cydia and search for ‘Cydia Impactor’.
2. Install Cydia Impactor, which is available for free on your device.
3. Once the tool has been installed tap on the ‘Cydia Impactor’ icon from the homescreen.
5. Now the process of unjailbreaking will be started. It could take a few minutes to complete. Make sure your device has enough battery life remaining. To be on the safe side we would advise you to plug it into a charger.
Once the unjailbreak process is complete your device will reboot and you will be taken to the set up screen. Here you can restore the iTunes or iCloud back or set up iPhone, iPad or iPod touch as a new device.
