☐ iOS version exactly 5.1.1 (Check Settings → General → About) ☐ Jailbroken (Look for Cydia icon) ☐ Downloaded IPA labelled "v1.9.1" or "v2.0.0" ☐ Installed AppSync Unified (if using direct install) ☐ 50MB free storage ☐ Airplane Mode ready for first launch

: It's not worth the hassle. Unless you're keeping an old device for nostalgia, upgrade to at least iOS 9–10 (if possible) to run moderately old versions of Subway Surfers, or use a modern device to play the current game. Sideloading random IPAs from untrusted sites is a security risk.
: Using software like iTunes, Cydia Impactor, or AltStore, you can install the IPA file on your device.
