NOTICE

Apple seems to be removing old ipsws from their CDN servers so if you get a 404 or some other error that might be the reason why.

Download with a Proxy

This will download firmware for an iPhone 15 Pro behind a corporate proxy

❯ ipsw download ipsw --proxy http://proxy.org:[PORT] --device iPhone16,1 --latest

To disable SSL cert verification

❯ ipsw download ipsw --insecure --device iPhone16,1 --latest

download `ipsw` config

You can also use a config file with ipsw so you don't have to use the flags

❯ cat ~/.ipsw/config.yml

download:
  latest: true
  confirm: true
  white-list:
    - iPhone16,1    # iPhone 15 Pro
    - iPhone16,2    # iPhone 15 Pro Max
    - iPad14,1      # iPad Pro 11-inch (M4)
  resume-all: true
  output: /SHARE/IPSWs

This will download the latest IPSWs for only the iPhone 15 Pro models and iPad Pro M4 without requesting user confirmation to download. It will also always try to resume previously interrupted downloads and will download everything to the /SHARE/IPSWs folder

You can also use environment variables to set ipsw config

❯ IPSW_DOWNLOAD_DEVICE=iPhone16,1 ipsw download ipsw --latest

download ipsw --latest

Queries the iTunes XML for latest version (maybe run this as a cron job) 😉

Download all the latest IPSWs
