# Launching UTM

After the initial setup is done, this is all you'll have to do to start UTM.

{% hint style="info" %}
Make sure you are connected to a Wi-Fi network. This does not work over mobile data.\
If you are on mobile data, nothing will happen after step 3.
{% endhint %}

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Paid ADP Account" %}

1. Open Jitterbug
2. Find your device in the device list. e.g iPhone-12.local
3. Choose your pairing file
4. Choose UTM
5. If it pops up with another menu asking for a disk image, choose DeveloperDiskImage.dmg
   {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Free ADP Account" %}

1. Open Jitterbug on your secondary device
2. Find your main device in the device list. e.g iPhone-12.local
3. Choose your pairing file
4. Choose UTM
5. If it pops up with another menu asking for a disk image, choose DeveloperDiskImage.dmg
   {% endtab %}
   {% endtabs %}

UTM should now start in tethered mode. You can now run any VM, at full speed!
