Important
On Linux, usbmuxd must be installed on your system. Don't worry though, it comes with most popular distributions by default already! However, due to some distributions udev rules usbmuxd may stop running after no devices are connected causing Impactor to not detect the device after plugging it in. You can mitigate this by plugging your phone first then restarting the app.
On Windows, iTunes must be downloaded so Impactor is able to use the drivers for interacting with Apple devices.
Note
Pairing file installation is only available for devices plugged in via USB.
Tip
chmod +x /path/to/AppImage after downloading may be required for Linux.
This project is still very new! Expect bugs to occur :)
