What to do? 
Ok currently my iPhone 6S+ is jailbroken on iOS 10.2 with Yalu ( 1 year signed ) but recently many apps are requiring iOS 11+ I don't have any blobs saved for older firmware so I would have to do a current update ( probably a full wipe and setup as new device ) 
My phone has been having some trouble with crashing and slowing down. I've gone through my tweaks and removed everything I didn't consider essential. Run iCleaner and try to keep everything tidy. I just really don't want to lose my jailbroken status. I've almost always had my phones jailbroken scene my first iPhone ( 3GS I think ) 

What do you guys think I should do? The longer I wait the more iOS updates get released and the likelihood of future jailbrakes seems to get fewer and farther apart. 

Anyone have any ideas?

If your device is running slow, a good Semi-Restore or Cydia Eraser helps.

As for iOS 11+, you can try some methods to install on lower iOS versions. Read our "How to Install Incompatible iOS Apps on Lower iOS Versions" topic: https://iosgods.com/topic/50557-install-newer-ios-apps-on-a-lower-firmware-ios-device-3-installation-methods/

Thank you. I have tried lowerinstall with mixed results (  expected ) but it caused my AppStore to crash. Also something else keeps logging me out of my iTunes acct on this device it does let me log back in just strange. 

 

( I take full responsibility and understand something could go wrong  ) for iOS 10.2 what do you think is better for a more complete wipe semi-restore or Cydia eraser?

everything important on my phone is backed up somewhere else ( contacts, photos, notes etc )
