What is Tethered and Untethered Jailbreak?
Many people, especially the newbies in Jailbreaking do not know the difference between a tether Jailbreak and untethered Jailbreak. Well to make it short and clear, Tethered Jailbreaking is a kind of Jailbreak that still depends on the software used to Jailbreak a device every time it needs to reboot, meaning, every time the tethered device is hard booted, turn off or ran out of battery it cannot boot on a jailbroken state unless you connect it to the computer and run the application you used to Jailbrake it, repeating some of the process of Jailbreaking. While on the other hand, Untethered Jailbreak, all devices under this Jailbreak can independently reboot itself anytime, preserving its Jailbroken state without needing the application used to Jailbreak it.
