If you're a jailbreak fan who gave up all hope of liberating your iOS device and decided to upgrade to iOS 9, then you may want to explore the possibilities of an immediate downgrade. Over the last few hours a number of rumors have started to circulate pertaining to the possible release of a fully-functional, untethered jailbreak solution for Apple's iOS 8.4.1 platform, which was the last public release of iOS 8.
Jailbreak users, as you might know by now, Apple has released iOS 8.4.1 for supported iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices. If you're a jailbreaker and have your device already jailbroken on either iOS 8.4, 8.3, 8.2 or 8.1.3, here's what you need to know.
After releasing iOS 9.1 beta 2 to developers and iOS 9.0.1 final for all older iPhone, iPad and iPod touch models yesterday, today Apple has rolled out iOS 9.1 beta 2 to those registered on Public Beta Program and iOS 9.0.1 for iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus.
Apple has taken the opportunity to provide some additional information about a number of third-party iOS apps that were recently discovered to be infected with the XcodeGhost malware. After the existence of the XcodeGhost trojan filtered down into the public domain, Apple took a number of steps to not only combat the issue, but also provide clarification on what it means to users, developers, and how it plans to rectify the problem and ensure that it doesn't happen again. Now, as an addendum to that info, the Cupertino-based company has listed the top 25 apps that have been affected by the malware.
If there is one thing that you can be sure of when a new release of iOS or a new iPhone is announced, it's that jailbreakers will only be a step or so behind. With the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus going on sale this coming Friday, September 25th, the new phones' marquee feature is without doubt 3D Touch which allows users to press harder than a tap in order to open new menus and added functionality. However, starting now, we already have a jailbreak tweak which attempts to mimic Apple's new 3D Touch.
Only a week after iOS 9.0, Apple today has released final iOS 9.0.1 IPSW download links for supported iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices.
There is undeniably a lot of positives to take from the Apple's introduction of iOS 9. The plethora of new features and stability improvements alone make the latest and great version of iOS worth downloading and installing on all devices. Then there's the fact that we still have the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus to come with iOS 9 pre-installed which will serve up additional functionality, such as 3D Touch and Live Photos. There are plenty of reasons to want iOS 9, but, as it turns out, there's also one fairly large reason to not want iOS 9 on your iPhone or iPad - a serious security flaw that lets individuals bypass the device passcode.
As part of the company's release and delivery strategy for the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus, Apple has started issuing emails to a number of pre-order customers in the United States who could be affected by the visitation of Pop Francis. It has been well discussed on social media and mainstream news over the last week or so that Pope Francis is visiting Washington DC, New York and Philadephia as part of a historic visit. And now, Apple seems to have deemed it necessary to let certain consumers know that their iPhone 6s / 6s Plus pre-orders could potentially be delayed due to the visit in some areas.
Apple has today outlined what the XcodeGhost malware is in a FAQ published on its website, explaining what compromising of some App Store apps actually means for users via its Chinese website, and the steps that the company is taking in order to minimize the risk and ensure its developers can be protected moving forward.
It's highly likely that Cupertino-based Apple will not be happy with the overly eager performance of one of its logistics partners in the San Diego, California area. Adrienne, who plies her trade as a visual designer in the San Diego locality, has become one of the first known customers to receive a pre-ordered iPhone 6s unit a whopping five days before it was actually meant to be delivered as part of Apple's official launch of the handset in eleven countries around the world.
