Pick your platform below. On iOS you can install Unbound with or without a jailbreak. Unbound runs inside the Discord app, so you install a modified Discord rather than a separate app.

​
Sideloaded (no jailbreak)

Use this if your device is not jailbroken. You need a sideloading tool such as SideStore, Feather, or AltStore.If your tool supports sources, add Unbound’s source. If it doesn’t, install the app file directly.

​
Install from the source

1

Open Your Sideloading Tool

Open SideStore, Feather, AltStore, or another sideloading tool that supports sources.
2

Add the Unbound Source

Add this source URL:
3

Install Unbound

Find Unbound in the source and install it. Pick plain Unbound unless you want the beta.The source also lists Unbound (TestFlight), which is built on Discord’s TestFlight beta.
4

Open the App

Open the newly installed app and log in to Discord.

​
Install the app file

1

Download the App File

Download Unbound.ipa from Unbound’s GitHub releases.
2

Install It with Your Sideloading Tool

Open the file in your sideloading tool and install it.
3

Open the App

Open the newly installed app and log in to Discord.
Always sideload the ready-made Unbound.ipa, or install from the source above. Don’t inject Unbound into a Discord app yourself.Unbound is built for the ElleKit tweak runtime, and other tweak runtimes will likely break features. If Unbound is not loaded through ElleKit, the app shows a Runtime Detection alert saying that functionality is not guaranteed.

​
Keep the app extensions

Some sideloading tools offer to remove app extensions. Keep them if you want these features:
  • Opening Discord links from Safari in the app.
  • Sharing photos and files to Discord from other apps.
If you remove them, Unbound shows a Missing Safari Extension or Missing Share Extension alert on launch, and those features won’t work.

​
Jailbroken

Use this if your device has a rootless jailbreak. The package is called Unbound. Your package manager also installs ElleKit if you don’t have it yet.
1

Open Your Package Manager

Open the package manager that came with your jailbreak, such as Sileo.
2

Add the Unbound Repo

Add this repo:
3

Install Unbound

Remove Enmity, Vendetta, or Pyoncord first if you have them. Unbound can’t be installed alongside them.Then search for Unbound and install it.
4

Open Discord

Close Discord if it was running, then open it again.
To install without the repo, download the package file from the latest GitHub release and open it in your package manager. The file is named like app.unbound.ios_<version>_iphoneos-arm64.deb.If Discord shows the alert This version of Discord is incompatible with this version of the Tweak., your Discord app is too old or too new for the installed Unbound version. Unbound will not load.

​
After installing

Make sure you’re online the first time you open Discord with Unbound. That’s when it downloads Unbound’s latest version. On later launches it checks for a newer version and downloads it only when one is available. You don’t need to update Unbound by hand for these updates.

​
Check that Unbound is working

Open Discord’s settings. A new Unbound section appears at the top of the list, with these pages:
  • General
  • Plugins
  • Design
  • Marketplace
If the Unbound section is missing, Unbound didn’t load. If the download fails and no earlier copy is saved on your device, Discord shows an alert and opens without Unbound. On iOS the alert reads Failed to load Unbound’s bundle. Please report this to the developers.

​
If you see a security warning

Only install Unbound from the sources on this page. On iOS, if the app shows a SECURITY WARNING alert saying the injected tweak failed Unbound’s integrity verification, you can’t be sure the copy you have is free of malware. Uninstall it and reinstall from one of the sources above.

​
Open the recovery menu on iOS

Shake your device for between half a second and two seconds, or hold three fingers on the screen for half a second. This menu, called the toolbox, works even when the rest of Unbound fails to load. See Troubleshooting for what it can do and how to fix other problems.
