jailbreak or hack ipad 3rd gen A2377

[13117015N]

Hello, I have an Ipad 3rd gen A2377 right now running IOS 16.5.1 (c). Is there anyway to jailbreak or hack this device as I need to track key strokes and website activity for safari where I can see the exact pages (sub urls) of content for sites visited not just the general website domain. I can see the websites visited through my home wifi logs but not the details. It is my personal ipad and my personal home wifi. If this is not the right forum or platform to find information, would someone mind directing me to the appropriate forums, discussion groups? Thank you so much

Welcome to iPad Forums!

As far as I know, there’s no jailbreak for iPadOS 16.5.1 at the moment. It’s also not possible to downgrade. Apple stopped signing software versions below the one you’ve installed in your device.

Just to name the device correctly: According to the model number, you own an iPad Pro, 11-inch (3rd generation), released by Apple in 2021, with the Apple M1 chip.

Thank you for letting me know. I was afraid of that. Do you think this may be something that will be possible in the future? Also, is there any apps that you know of that can capture or record the screen or activity remotely? Thanks again!

Sorry, no idea whether or not there‘ll be a jailbreak for the software installed on your device in the near future.

There‘s an app called Splashtop SOS which can be used to remotely control an iPad. No idea whether or not it can also record the screen. Originally, it‘s meant to help a technician providing help on a different device remotely.

It‘s possible to switch the control of your iPad to a different iDevice. Both devices have to be connected to the same Wi-Fi and Apple ID. There‘s no app necessary. You find the feature in Settings - Accessibility - Control Nearby Devices. I‘ve tried it, but I couldn‘t find the option to record the screen. Maybe it‘s different on your devices.

There‘s also Switch Control, a feature that allows controlling another Apple device:

Use Switch Control on your device to control another Apple device - Apple Support

With Use Other Devices for Switch Control, you can control your other Apple devices remotely on the same Wi-Fi network without adjusting any switch connections. This enables you to navigate your Mac or Apple TV with the same switch setup that you use to control your iPhone.

Hope that helps.

Thank you. I tried to figure out the switch control and although I'm pretty tech savy I couldn't get it to work. Thanks again.

You‘re welcome.

There are parenting apps that log your iPad's internet activity, I'm not sure what level of detail they provide. They normally work by connecting your iPad to a VPN server and logging that traffic.

There are alternate touch screen keyboards. Some of them might allow key logging. They would be required to inform you and make the feature opt-in, since they require a certain amound of trust in the app provider. I couldn't find one with a casual search, so if they exist it will take some research.

If looking at the websites source code would help, iCab Mobile and a few other browsers allow you to see a site's source code. You might also find some helpful tools if you search for web developer tools.

Thank you for your reply. The parent control apps that I looked at are not compatible with this ipad and IOS 16. I'll check out the keyboards and the web developer tools. Have a great day!
