Icy Installer 3 (Cydia alternative)

Since this new installer looks promising, I decided to take it for a test drive on my iPad mini on iOS 9.3.5.
WHICH VERSIONS DOES IT SUPPORT TO Install Icy Installer 3?    Â
As of now, Icy Installer 3 works only up till iOS 10.3.3 beginning from iOS 7 (legacy firmware). You can use it on any of the following iOS versions.

- iOS 8-8.4.1
- iOS 9-9.3.5
- iOS 10-10.3.3

Apart from that, only 64-bit devices are supported at the moment because the developer used iOS 11 SDK.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTÂ
- According to Artikus, it crashes on Electra jailbreak (iOS 11-11.1.2) firmware. He doesn’t have any test devices running iOS 11, which will definitely delay a full-blown release for iOS 11. The next step would be to make it compatible with the latest iOS operating system.
- The developer also intends to roll out bug fixes as soon as possible.
- Improvements to the GUI.
- Adding support for 32-bit Apple devices.
- Add support for third-party Cydia repositories.
