UTM 2.0 includes a redesign of the frontend for iOS 14 and introduces support for macOS 11. Due API limitations, the new design will not be available for iOS 13 and below. That means any feature that depends on the new design will also not be back-ported to iOS 13. Launching UTM 2.0 on iOS 14 will show the new design and launching UTM 2.0 on iOS 13 and below will show the old design.

iOS 14 unfortunately patched the ptrace() exploit that allowed UTM to run side-loaded on non-jailbroken devices. However, iOS 14.2 introduces a new method for running UTM's JIT engine (untethered). As of this release, the changes to AltStore required for the new method are not released yet, so for now the recommended way to install UTM for iOS 14.2 is not to use AltStore. You should use iOS App Signer until the new AltStore is released.

As always, please report all bugs to Github

Changes

• (iOS 14) Detect new iOS 14.2 JIT enable method (see above)
• (iOS 14) Disable modifying VM settings when suspended (#476)
• (iOS 14) When VM is suspended, add toolbar/menu option to delete save state. Also show suspended state in details view.
• Fix QEMU issue where on some occasion, "Could not remap code buffer mirror" error shows up on launch.

iOS 14 unfortunately patched the ptrace() exploit that allowed UTM to run side-loaded on non-jailbroken devices. UTM 2.0 running on iOS 14 requires either jailbreaking or tethering to the Xcode debugger (launch directly from Xcode). To better support future iOS releases, we are deprecating support for non-jailbroken devices. This means that future features may depend on jailbreak and "legacy" UTM will no longer get priority for new features.

Changes

• Fixed “Could not allocate dynamic translator buffer” on jailbroken devices (#459)
• Implemented APRR JIT for < iOS 14. This means non-jailbroken devices on < iOS 13.5 (thanks to Psychic Paper) and ALL jailbroken devices get improved JIT. These devices no longer have the 1/2 JIT cache penalty (and can allocate a bit more guest RAM). The kernel instability from improper exit should also no longer affect these devices and you can now terminate UTM by swiping up from the task switcher.
