Dopamine 3 is finally here, bringing jailbreak support to compatible iOS devices, including versions up to iOS 26.0.1. In this guide, we will walk through downloading Dopamine, installing it with TrollStore, completing the jailbreak, setting up Sileo or Zebra, and installing jailbreak tweaks.
Check Dopamine 3 Compatibility
Before starting, make sure your iPhone or iPad and its iOS version are supported. Dopamine 3 supports devices across the supported iOS range, with A12 and A13 devices having the widest compatibility. ARM64e devices have support up to iOS 17.3.1 according to the guide.
Download Dopamine 3
Dopamine is available in both IPA and TIPA formats. If you already have TrollStore installed, download the TIPA file. If you don’t have TrollStore, download the IPA and use a compatible sideloading method.
Install Dopamine
If you’re using TrollStore, open the downloaded TIPA file and select TrollStore from the Share menu. TrollStore will launch and show an installation prompt. Tap Install to install Dopamine.
For users without TrollStore, sideload the downloaded IPA using SideStore, Esign, KSign, or your preferred compatible sideloading solution. Once Dopamine is installed, launch the app and leave the settings at their default values unless you know what you’re changing.
Jailbreak Your iPhone or iPad
Open Dopamine and tap Jailbreak. You can select Sileo, Zebra, or both package managers before continuing with the jailbreak process.
The jailbreak process may occasionally appear to get stuck. If this happens, force-reboot the device and try again. If the problem continues, return to the Home Screen, relaunch Dopamine, and retry the process.
Once the jailbreak completes, the device will reboot. After it starts again, your selected package manager should appear on the Home Screen.
Install Jailbreak Tweaks
Open Sileo or Zebra and update the installed packages first. After updating, you can search for compatible jailbreak tweaks and add them to the installation queue.
The guide demonstrates installing Cylinder, which adds customizable animations to iOS. Depending on the tweak, you may need to respring or reboot the device before the changes take effect.
Switch Between Sileo and Zebra
Dopamine also allows you to reinstall or change the package manager from its settings. You can select Sileo, Zebra, or both.
If you switch to Zebra, you can import your existing sources from Sileo. This makes it easier to continue using your preferred repositories without adding them manually.
With Dopamine 3 installed, you can now use Sileo or Zebra to manage packages and customize your supported iOS device with jailbreak tweaks.
