    2. Unzip, then copy the iPhoneOS14.5.sdk folder into ~/theos/sdks
  2. Clone SCInsta repo from GitHub: git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/SoCuul/SCInsta

Support the project

SCInsta takes a lot of time to develop, as the Instagram app is ever-changing and difficult to keep up with. Additionally, I'm still a student which doesn't leave me much time to work on this tweak.

If you'd like to support my work, you can donate to my ko-fi page!
There's many other ways to support this project however, by simply sharing a link to this tweak with others who would like it!

Seeing people use this tweak is what keeps me motivated to keep working on it ❤️
