How to remove Jailbreak from iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad

Method 1: Best option is to restore your device. Make sure you take a backup because you will losing all your data present on the device. I prefer to take backup on iCloud as it backs up everything. Backup in iTunes will not have Music and Apps backed up. Now connect your iOS device to iTunes and click on Restore. You will be prompted to take backup before you restore. Once the restore is completed, your device would be jailbreak free. You can now restore your backup to get back all your information. This is the safest method.
Method 2: This method would just remove Cydia and not the jailbreak. It basically hides your jailbreak. Open Cydia and tap on Manage from bottom bar. Now go to Packages and look for Cydia Installer. Tap on Cydia Installer then select Remove on top right menu. Let the process finish and Cydia will be removed. Make sure you remove any jailbreak tweaks you have installed before removing Cydia.
I hope one of the above method was useful for you. Let us know, what was the reason you removed your jailbreak?
