Notorious hackers Pangu and Luca Todesco have apparently failed in releasing a stable iOS 10.2 jailbreak tool and might have given up to the enhanced security features of the latest version of iOS. This could be a good opportunity for Apple to remind the iPhone users about the consequence of jailbreaking that can possibly end up into warranty void.

Hopes are Dying Out for the Notorious Hackers

Apple iOS 10.2 jailbreak tool remains elusive up until this time. Although Luca Todesco managed to release a working tool a month ago, the jailbreaking community has not fully embraced the Yalu app because of instability and limited features.

Furthermore, the silence of the Chinese group of hackers Pangu also added to the weight of the conclusion that Apple has finally put an end to jailbreaking era. According to Forbes, Apple has managed to cover the security loopholes through iOS 10.2.1 security patches including the 11 potential risks discovered by Google's Project Zero Security program.

Meanwhile, Apple is reportedly seeding on the fourth beta version of iOS 10.3 where new features are likely to be introduced which includes SiriKit improvements, enhanced HomeKit support and iCloud analytics. Changes in App store is also expected such as developer's response to customer reviews and surfacing the most relevant review through "Helpful" and "Not Helpful" remarks.

Consequences of iPhone Jailbreaking

iOS jailbreaking and Android rooting have no legal impediments since time immemorial. For this reason, various hackers have been diligent in finding ways to be able for consumers to modify and open their devices to non-permitted apps no matter how much manufacturers discourage everyone from doing it.

Jailbreaking or rooting has become prevalent nowadays most especially when the federal warranty law protects the right of the consumers to run third-party apps on their devices, according to Motherboard. However, Apple is consistent in reminding the iPhones and iPads users about the consequences of jailbreaking such as hardware damage due to overheating because of modified software controls and warranty void.

With this endless innovation in technology, only hackers and major manufacturers know when to put an end to software modification. But, as of this moment, everyone can conclude that iOS jailbreaking has no place in the current beta version of Apple's mobile operating system.
