Huh haven’t jailbroken my iPhones since my iPhone 5 back in 2014. Back then I feel that iOS was severely limited in functionality and jailbreaking allowed for custom solutions to problems Apple wasn’t addressing. Since then iOS has seen a plethora of features and I feel there’s little reason to jailbreak anymore. Does anyone know if there’s any good reason to jailbreak anymore? Any killer functionality that would make it worth it?
The make or break is whether this one is finally untethered or not. I miss the days when the jailbreak community was abundant both in users and developers. Unfortunately it seems like its days are (have been?) numbered. A shame, because reverse engineering iOS[1] was a hell of a lot of fun.<p>[1] <a href="https://github.com/GN-OS/Bloard" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/GN-OS/Bloard</a>
This includes the iPhone Xs and 11 (and presumably all A12 and A13 devices). Was there a new exploit found on these chips? Last I checked only devices with chips older than the A12 were vulnerable to the checkra1n exploit.
The baity title and the coming-soonness are two strikes against this submission. Does anyone want to argue in its favor? and if so, what should we change the title to?
