iFaith was developed by iH8sn0w as a Windows utility for jailbreaking iPhones and preserving device-specific SHSH data. The .ifaith file extension identifies files containing SHSH information saved by the program.

iFaith uses this file as part of its firmware workflow, including the creation of a signed IPSW file that can be restored to a compatible device.

The format is associated with older iPhone and iOS versions. iFaith is a legacy Windows program.

How to open ifaith file?

Open an .ifaith file with iFaith on Windows. The file is intended to be loaded by the iFaith workflow, not opened as a text document or edited manually.

Because iFaith supports legacy iPhone firmware, a current device may not be compatible with the file or the program.

How to convert ifaith file?

An .ifaith file is not normally converted to another file format. Its SHSH data is specific to the iFaith workflow and the associated device and firmware.

Use iFaith to load the file and, where supported, create the corresponding signed IPSW file for device restoration.
