Luca Todesco Confirms
Luca Todesco was already working to make Yalu compatible with “4k devices”.
Experimental 4K device support has been added in the latest Yalu commit!

4K iOS devices include the iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 5S, iPod 6, iPad Air, iPad Air 2, iPad mini 2, iPad mini 3 and iPad mini 4.
Newer devices such as the iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 6S, iPhone 6S Plus and iPad Pro have a memory size of 16,384 bytes. Hence, they are termed “16K” devices.
Stay away from leaked files
Many unofficial IPA files are appearing on Twitter. Anyone can edit and modify the source code of Yalu102 as it is open source. Some unscrupulous hackers might add “backdoors” to hack your devices.
After witnessing many users downloading leaked ipa files, Luca stepped in.
I added proper 5s support to yalu. Refrain from using half baked leaked ipas.

It is highly recommended that you do not use an IPA file from a third-party source if you want to protect your device and data.
Stable Release is Coming
We will soon get a stable jailbreak tool for all 64-bit devices from iOS 10 to iOS 10.2. We just need to be a bit more patient now. Due to hardware level security, iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus will be compatible up to iOS 10.1.1 only.
If you are interested in the iOS 10.2 jailbreak, downgrade your iPhone, iPad and iPod to iOS 10.2 (tutorial) as long as Apple signs the firmware. If you want to jailbreak at a later stage, save your SHSH2 blobs (tutorial).
