Common Questions Answered
Everything you need to know before getting started.
Is Nugget safe to use on my device?
Yes. Nugget modifies only specific configuration files (primarily MobileGestalt) through Apple's own restore mechanism. It does not inject code, disable security features, or alter the kernel. Thousands of users run it daily. That said, always create a backup before making any system modifications.
Does Nugget require jailbreaking my iPhone?
Absolutely not. Nugget operates through SparseRestore and BookRestore exploits — these are fundamentally different from jailbreaking. Your device's security sandbox remains intact, and all modifications are contained within configuration files that Apple can restore at any time.
Which iPhones and iPads does Nugget support?
Nugget works on all devices running iOS/iPadOS 17.0 through 26.1. This includes iPhone 8 and newer, iPad Pro (2018+), iPad Air 3rd generation+, iPad 7th generation+, and iPad mini 5th generation+. Some features depend on specific hardware capabilities.
Can I reverse the changes if something goes wrong?
Yes, every modification is fully reversible. You can toggle features off directly within Nugget, or perform a standard DFU/iTunes restore to return your device to its factory configuration. No permanent changes are ever made to your device.
Where should I download Nugget from?
Only download Nugget from the official GitHub repository maintained by leminlimez at github.com/leminlimez/Nugget. Avoid third-party download sites, as they may distribute modified or malicious versions.
