Filza is the ultimate file explorer and management utility no matter which jailbreak tool you have. Here’s a quick tutorial on how you can install Filza file manager on Meridia jailbreak on iOS 10-10.3.3.
As we know, Meridian jailbreak is missing Cydia and Substrate. This means you can’t play around with your device even though you have a full-blown jailbreak. Having Filza file manager on your device will allow you to alter the way the stock iOS operating system work to a great extent.
Warning – The current version of Filza is missing a few necessary daemons. This means you will not get write access to the root. However, all other areas of your device’s filesystem will remain accessible.
Requirements
