iOS 8.4 Jailbreak

iOS 8.3 jailbreak release may not happen in July after the release of the official version of iOS 8.4 as most users will upgrade to said version that may have restrictions for the iOS 8.3 jailbreak.

After popular Chinese jailbreaking team Pangu showcased the iOS 8.3 jailbreak at the Mobile Security Conference in Sanghai, China, the dev team announced that it will release the jailbreak to the public soon.

Moreover, hacker team PP Assistant, which is the developer behind the OS X version of TaiG, claimed that it will release the iOS 8.3 jailbreak in July. The official iOS 8.4 will be rolled out on June 30 packed with new software features, according to Scribbal.

The jailbreak community will most likely jump straight to iOS 8.4 jailbreak. Chinatopix claimed that jailbreakers think that it makes no sense to put effort on a jailbreak that will be irrelevant soon.

Reports claimed that the new iOS version will fix all issues in terms of security and will patch all of its vulnerabilities. iOS 8.4 includes new features like Apple Music and improved Siri and iOS 8.3 jailbreak users will not be able to enjoy such features.

Meanwhile, Ecumenical News reported that iOS 8.4 jailbreak will be released as new jailbreaking tools are already being prepared for the OS.

On the other hand, Chinese developers TaiG and K33n are working separately on the upcoming iOS 9 jailbreak and will release it in the fall, according to WCCF Tech. The report added that Chinese app stores that are running in jailbreak are paying developers over $1 million to work on untethered jailbreak.

However, previous reports claimed that iOS 9 operating system will be impossible to jailbreak as it will pack "rootless" security feature that will put an end to all jailbreaks. Without the "root," which is used by jailbreakers, users with administrative-level will not be able to access certain protected files in Apple devices.
