Cydia was affected by the ongoing Amazon EC2 server outages. This meant you could not download/purchase any Cydia packages, access the theme center or even your own Cydia account. Today we got more word from Saurik, and this time good news! You see, Saurik recently announced on Twitter that after 86 hours of down time Cydia is up and running. This means that all of Cydia’s features should be back up and running like normal. Take a look at Saurik’s tweet below.





Here is a screenshot of Cydia working fine now...


Saurik definitely spent countless hours trying to get Cydia back online as fast as possible. Saurik’s dedication to the jailbreak community is greatly appreciated. Saurik really is one of the main faces behind jailbreaking and it is great to see he was so committed to bringing Cydia back online as soon as possible.
