I used to have jailbreak on my iPhone 6, but i decided to remove it. Now i am trying to use an app called VIPPS, but when i open the app it says that my device is jailbroken, even though I removed the jailbreak. Is there any way around this?

How did you remove the jailbrake and what iOS are you on?

Are you sure you restored and not updated?
I'm not totally sure what i did, but it do not have cydia anyomore, and i am sure i don't have jailbreak. Do you think it will work if i restore my phone again?

I think the difference is, with a RESTORE it replaces the files in a different manner than an UPDATE, and UPDATE might leave something behind that VIPPS checks for as evidence that it is jailbroken. Alternatively have you tried methods of blocking the jialbreak protection, like flex, tsprotector, etc.

Did you restore data from a backup? If so, the problem might be something from there. Try a clean restore and test prior to restoring backup, if it works then but stops working after you restore from backup, then you know where the problem is!
