iPod Touch Jailbreaking [Seeking Help/Tips]

[Ducky]

Earlier this year, I bought a secondhand iPod Touch [Version: 9.3.5 (13G36)] with a replaced battery. My main intention is to use it to listen to music and play games. (NO SOCIAL MEDIA on this iPod >:3)

A friend suggested that I jailbreak it so that I can access different app stores besides the official one.

I have tried to jailbreak it using the Phoenix method, but it didn't seem to work (it wouldn't let me log in with my Apple account, which btw I used a spare throwaway account rather than my actual  account.)

Looking up other methods on jailbreaking gives me a lot of different results. This is not a topic I am very knowledgeable on, so I figured it'd be wise to ask any tech-savvy folks in the forums for help/advice.

Does anyone have suggestions on how to go about successfully jailbreaking an iPod Touch (on Windows?) Any apps I should look into downloading if jailbreaking is successful? Should I even jailbreak the iPod at all?  Whatever tips you may have in regards to the topic, I'd love to hear them!

(Disclaimer, I looked it up, and jailbreaking one's device is perfectly legal. It would just mean that Apple would void any warranty and support. Not like they'd help me with it anyway, since they've long since discontinued the iPod Touch line.)

To end off the post, here are a couple of pics of the iPod in question:

Cute, huh?

I use an iPhone 5 in airplane mode for the same reason  (though its black and not a fun as your iPod  )  Running iOS 10 it can still stream Apple Music and all the music I have in my iTunes library which is about 200GB worth (much more than I could store on the phone)

I used to Jailbreak a lot back in the day, and aside from some customisation features that were never that amazing there became less and less of a point to doing it by the iOS 9 era. These days I'm guessing the main reason is to sideload apps that are no longer on the AppStore? (Unless there is an underground scene of people making modern apps for old iOS versions that Im unaware of?  )

I remeber I once installed Android on an iPhone 3G.. that was a mess 

Usually jailbreaking would not hinder logging into an Apple account though; I don't remember that ever being an issue - on some older iOS versions you need to add the 2FA pin after your password when logging in; aside from that they still work ok! If you are installing modded versions or trying to restore back to the stock os; always do it in DFU mode - I've always found it much more reliable than other kinds of restores.

Anyway, Im curious to hear how this thread goes; if I can sideload apps, or backup apps I have installed on my phone that would be useful!
