she stayed for about 3-5 years only

i didn’t edit her btw

(EDIT: it’s 512gb)

the main reason i want to make it usable is because of its iOS version. but i fear a LCD will be noticeably worse. i don’t want the new screen to break super easily like the stock OLED though.

i don’t have a lot of money for an OLED but do have enough for an LCD. it’s on a good iOS with everything fully intact. (other than face id & the screen)

(personal computer required only for step 1 and 2)

step one: side loading. you need a valid side loader, my recommendations are either AltStore, or Sideloadly.both have a attached virustotal scan at the bottom of the post, and you can do one yourself aswell at Virustotal’s site; DO NOT USE SCARLET OR SUCH SIGNERS

step two, get Pancake Store now sideload it with altstore/sideloadly.

step three: if you have bitlife on your iphone, offload it to keep saves, or delete it. open pancake store, log in with the apple account you purchased bitlife with, # make sure your account has 2FA on.

then it will send your device(s) a 2fa code, remember it, and type it in to the box, if you don’t get one then turn on airplane mode, open settings, tap ur name at the tippy top, then privacy and security, remember the code;

turn airplane mode off then head to pancake store, type it in, paste the bitlife app store link: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/bitlife-life-simulator/id1374403536.

now when it asks where to get the version list select fetch from server, pick 3.24.1; wait for the install, and then enjoy some goodies! (guide below if you don’t know how to get the IAP via dev tools) also if this worked for you, please upvote and or comment :)

how to make use of dev tools:

spam the middle right of ur screen, it should bring up a menu, then tap the hamburger menu at the top left; (3 vertical lines) now tap options, scroll down until you see other tools, tap it. now that you have the drop down open tap the arrows on IAPTToRemove, once you found your wanted in app purchase, tap activate purchase

pancake store's virus total why does pancake store have a virus total detection? it is a false positive, and it is classified as a jailbreak trojan which this is a jailed app so there isn’t a way that’s possible.

sideloadly's virustotal

altstore's virustotal

edit one: i forgor tha i put a shortened link for the pancake store link

if you got déjà vu from reading this, it is because i have reposted in compliance of no advertising

(this isn’t an advertisement it’s the only method that i know of that can do this easily)

step number one: install alt store or any other side loading method you prefer EXCEPT FOR SCARLET AND SUCH SIGNERS, YOU NEED TO SIGN YOURSELF TO AVOID GETTING BANNED BY APPLE (guide here: https://youtu.be/40fWAc546Rs?si=vu2iYGZ0h8Umon6Y)

step DOS: get pancake store’s IPA from here: https://jailbreak.party (it links to its github so you have the source code and you can build that if you have a mac)

STEP numero three: sideload pancake store, after, follow the instructions it gives you select fetch from server when prompted, and make sure not to forget to sign in on the account it owns and offload/delete the app!!

now, use https://apps.apple.com/us/app/bitlife-life-simulator/id1374403536 as the link.

step number four: enjoy bitlife with all IAP’s and some goodies from the dev menu!

doesn’t matter if paid or free
