I once jailbroke my iPhone 6, but then i unjailbroke it again, but the cydia app is still there. I can't open the app, it opens with a white screen and then quickly closes again. I tried deleting everything and rebooting, but the app is still there when i open the phone afterwards. I assume that the app is in the back up, but i don't want to loose everything on my iPhone.

What to do?

Choose.

Live with it staying there and keep your data or restore as new and it will be gone.

If you choose to restore, put your phone in DFU mode, upgrade and restore as new.

IF you happen to have any backup before you jailbroke then you can restore to that, but if you do not, then you will need to set things up again. Otherwise restoring from a backup that was done when you were jailbroken will cause Cydia to return.
