Add RyukGram
Open it on your phone and everything is one tap away. Add it once and updates arrive on their own. - **Sideload.** Adds the source to **Feather** or **RyukSign**, **SideStore**, or **AltStore**. Pick the **plugins** build normally, or **no plugins** if you sign with a free Apple account, since free accounts cannot sign the bundled extensions. - **Jailbreak.** Adds the repo to **Sileo** or **Zebra**, then installs the build that matches your setup. To paste it by hand the repo is `https://source.ryuksign.com/apt/`. ### Build your own IPA Instagram itself cannot be bundled here, so you bring the Instagram IPA and the build slots RyukGram into it. **With GitHub Actions, no Mac needed.** Fork this repo, open the **Actions** tab, and run **Build sideloaded IPA from Release Assets**. Give it your Instagram IPA and it hands back a patched IPA ready to sign and install. Turn on the no-plugins option if you sign with a free account. **Or by hand** with a tool like cyan, injecting into your own Instagram IPA: - Regular build. Inject `zxPluginsInject.dylib` into the app and its plugins. The normal one, with the bundled extensions. - No-plugins build. Inject `NoPluginsPatch.dylib` instead. For a plugin free sideload, or a free account where extensions cannot be signed. ### Download the .deb Prefer the file? Both builds are on the [latest release](https://github.com/faroukbmiled/RyukGram/releases/latest).

Export the strings from **Settings, Debug, Localization**, translate the right side of each `"key" = "value";` line, and open a pull request with your file at `src/Localization/Resources/.lproj/Localizable.strings`. Keep the format specifiers like `%@` and `%lu` exactly as they are. Missing lines fall back to English, so partial work is welcome. Anything you contribute is licensed to the project under the same terms as RyukGram. ## Opening settings | | | |:-------------------------------------------:|:-------------------------------------------:| | | | ## Credits RyukGram got its start from [SCInsta](https://github.com/SoCuul/SCInsta) by [@SoCuul](https://github.com/SoCuul), and I'm grateful for the foundation it gave the project. That code has since been fully rewritten and none of it remains, so RyukGram is its own separate codebase. It went closed source because earlier releases were being lifted and resold as paid tweaks, which is something I can't keep feeding, and I know some of you valued it staying open. Thanks to @SoCuul and the wider iOS tweak scene for paving the way. - [**@SoCuul**](https://github.com/SoCuul) for SCInsta, the spark for this project - [**@BandarHL**](https://github.com/BandarHL) for BHInstagram - [**@VAXMG**](https://t.me/ciesIPAs) for OLED theme inspiration - [**@euoradan**](https://t.me/euoradan) for experiment flag research - [**@n3d1117**](https://github.com/n3d1117) for the Following feed - [**BillyCurtis**](https://github.com/BillyCurtis/OpenInstagramSafariExtension) for the Safari extension base - [**@asdfzxcvbn**](https://github.com/asdfzxcvbn) for ipapatch and zxPluginsInject - Furamako, [@ZomkaDEV](https://github.com/ZomkaDEV), [@ch1tmdgus](https://github.com/ch1tmdgus), [@bruuhim](https://github.com/bruuhim), [@jaydenjcpy](https://github.com/jaydenjcpy), [@brunorainha](https://github.com/brunorainha), [@yesnt10](https://github.com/yesnt10), [@tranbinh02](https://github.com/tranbinh02), [@yannouuuu](https://github.com/yannouuuu), and [@willybilly981](https://github.com/willybilly981) for translations ## Support If RyukGram earns a spot on your phone, you can keep it going here.
