[iMazing] How to Install Save Game Cheats for Non-Jailbroken iDevices!

Rook · January 29

PLEASE NOTE This tutorial still works, however Merge Dragons save seems to no longer be working so we recommend you try it on Hill Climb Racing Save Game instead. BACK UP YOUR DEVICE VIA ITUNES BEFORE PROCEEDING! We also have another better tutorial you can now follow which won't involve restoring from backup.

Since iBackupBot stopped working on iOS 11, iOSGods found a new way to install & apply save game cheats on iOS 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16! It's a much easier and simpler process too!

I will write a tutorial in this topic on how you can install Save Game Cheats onto your device! We'll be using an iPhone X on iOS 11.1.2 as an example. Let's begin.

Requirements:
- A computer running macOS or Windows, you are not able to do this on your device only.
- WinRar or 7-Zip or any other similar ones. 7z crashed for me so WinRar is suggested.
- iMazing [Free]
- Your Non-Jailbroken iDevice connected via USB cable. This method also works on Jailbroken iDevices, but this should mainly be used for Non-Jailbroken devices as Jailbroken devices have an alternative and much simpler way of installing save game cheats.
- Find My iPhone Turned Off. Yeah, this may sound sketchy but it's required for this tutorial to work. Enable it again once you have successfully applied the hack!

Instructions:
1. First of all, install & do everything from the requirements above. Then open up iMazing on your PC.

2. Make sure you have your target app installed on your iDevice. To be certain, play the app a bit so it generates the save files it requires. For this tutorial, I will be hacking Merge Dragons! using this hack from iOSGods. So go ahead and download the hack onto your PC.

3. Next, go to iMazing and then click on "Manage Apps" option.

4. Inside the Manage Apps window, click on the "Device" tab then find your target app. Mine is called "MergeDragons!" from the list. Right click the app's name and click on "Back Up App Data" from the menu.

5. In the Back Up App Data screen, make sure "Back Up and Extract App Data" option is ticked and click Next & then follow the on-screen warnings and instructions. Your app will be backed up and extracted to your PC in the destination you chose.

6. Now this is where WinRar comes in. Open the new xyxyxy.imazingapp file via WinRar then open the Container folder and in there you will see your app's Documents & Library folder. This is the part where you copy over the hack files you downloaded from iOSGods. Drag the hack files inside WinRar. Save files must be placed in their respective directories. Please see the iMazing developer's reply here.

7. Replace old files if prompted and then close WinRar and go back to your iMazing Manage Apps tab. Scroll back to your app and right click it, but this time, you will click the option "Restore App Data". Inside the Restore App Data screen, choose the file you just opened with WinRar. The one where you moved the hack files into. Then click Done. Your iDevice will reboot in order to restore the app's data.

After reboot is done, you can now open your app and you will see that the Save Game hack we applied is working!

And that's it! You can repeat this process again for other apps you would like to hack! You can restore multiple hacks at the same time.

Hey @DiDA good work with the tutorial ?

There’s the possibility to use FilzaEscaped/Jailed on iOS 11 without jailbreak for apply the save data, I usually do with this one with original app’s from AppStore ??‍♂️

That’s correct but FilzaEscaped only works on specific iOS 11 versions. This tutorial is for all current and future versions of iOS.
