What is Jailbreaking?

You’ve probably noticed the term “jailbreaking” on the internet, but what exactly is this term? actually, it’s the process of unlocking your phone to do anything you want with it.

iOS jailbreaking is the method of removing the operating system limitations imposed by Apple on iOS and tvOS. It does this by implementing a series of software exploits. The method allows root access to iOS, enabling users to download and install additional applications, extensions, and themes that are unavailable through the official Apple App Store.

Apple wants to protect its users by running secure apps and stable software, jailbreakers choose to take a few more risk for a few more control over their devices. Apple doesn’t like jailbreaking, and they are trying to make the process more difficult.

The method defeats that closed system (IOS) by loading a modified operating system onto your iPhone. It can still seem much like the original iOS but will provide much more freedom in how you configure and manage your phone.

The disadvantages of Jailbreaking an iPhone:
– Reduced security
– Compromised system updates.
– Reduces system stability.

Should you Jailbreak your iPhone?
There is no direct answer to the above question, but if you’re at all concerned about security, jailbreaking is not for you.
