*Backups involves making a copy of an existing file and storing it somewhere else. As all relevant Ninja Kiwi games utilize encrypted save files, <u>this guide does not give any instruction on bypassing this encryption.</u>

*Cracking involves removing the DRM applied by the App Store within an IPA file so that said IPA can run when sideloaded or installed by any account, rather than just the original Apple ID that installed it.

*Legacy iOS is an umbrella term for any iOS below iOS 11, characterized by 32-bit support. Many apps, such as {{IOS version of|Hot Air Bloon}}, are 32-bit and are classified as Legacy iOS, thus modern devices cannot run it.

==Installing Legacy iOS Kit and Sideloading==

*1. Install ''[https://github.com/LukeZGD/Legacy-iOS-Kit/wiki/How-to-Use Legacy iOS Kit]'' from GitHub. Choose a directory you like and follow the instructions.

[https://ios.cfw.guide/ ios.cfw.guide] has instructions for jailbreaks for a wide array of iOS versions. Before using any method, if concerned about device safety, utilize a device that does not feature important data. As many jailbreaks utilize a sideloaded app, this means that the sideloading method above will work for such jailbreaks. For jailbreaks involving sideloading, install the relevant jailbreak IPA, follow the previous section, then run the app and press the Jailbreak button, repeating the process until ''Cydia'' appears. For iOS versions that cannot be jailbroken with a sideloaded IPA, using ''[https://github.com/LukeZGD/Legacy-iOS-Kit/wiki/Jailbreaking-with-Legacy-iOS-Kit Legacy iOS Kit's]'' guide is an option, but I cannot vouch for it personally yet. In either case, once ''Cydia'' appears, the jailbreak is successful. Note that depending on the jailbreak used, resigning/sideloading the app used for the jailbreak again may be necessary upon powering off the device.

''[https://cydia.saurik.com/ Cydia]'' is an App Store alternative for Jailbroken devices that features apps not allowed on the App Store. Installing Karen/あけみ's ''[https://github.com/akemin-dayo/AppSync AppSync Unified]'' from Cydia enables installing IPA files already on the device without requiring resigning. Next, either install ''iFile'' or ''~~FilzaEscaped~~'' from ''Cydia'', whichever one is supported for the device's OS. Both apps are file managers that provide access for browsing a variety of files, including app save files.

Once ''AppSync'' is installed, IPA files can also be directly installed through ''Legacy iOS Kit'', by running it again, selecting App Management, selecting Install App (AppSync), then following step 4 of the installation section as usual.
