TaiG (Taiji) is an untethered jailbreak for all devices on iOS 8.0-8.1.2, except the Apple TV. It was initially released on November 29, 2014. Its website claims the exploits work on iOS 8.2 beta, but support is disabled in the public builds.

Supported Devices

All devices capable of running iOS 8.0-8.1.2 except the Apple TV family, are supported.

iOS 8.2 Beta

TaiG's website originally claimed as early as 4 December 2014 that "support of iOS 8.2 has been completed by TaiG, [but] as 8.2 is still at beta stage, we have disabled support for 8.2 in [the] current public release." This claim remained through 13 December 2014, but was removed sometime before 4 January 2015. It is believed that the third beta of iOS 8.2 (released 18 December 2014) patched the exploits used.
