Apple Countered Pangu Team’s Jailbreak with iOS 9.1
Have you updated your iPhone to the latest operating system yet?
The iPhone 6S, one of the iPhone models that can support the new iOS 9.1.
Let’s dive in to see a few more details on Pangu’s updated version for the Pangu 9 tool and what new additives are part of the new version. Below are our tutorials for jailbreaking using Pangu 9.
Before you update your iPad or iPhone to the new iOS version, we suggest you to make a backup, to do this, you can simply use iTunes and if you are an “old” iOS user, then you should already know about this.
The tweak, developed by PoomSmart, allows iOS 9 to 9.0.2 users to install the emojis and have them running on their device’s keyboards without necessarily updating their whole OS to 9.1.
This seems to be corroborated by other news sites as well, as it has been noted by others such as on Value Walk that iOS 9.1 has negated any effort to use the jailbreak program that Pangu has come out with. The update patched vulnerabilities responsible for the Pangu 9 jailbreak.
On the Pangu site, the Pangu team has said that so far, iOS 9.1 remains to be unjailbroken. Downgrading may or may not be a good idea, considering that with each iOS version update comes with it security fixes as well as other updates. “What we had in 9.0.2 was so reliable and useable, that the big news in 9.1 is there’s a middle finger emoji”. If you haven’t updated yet, you should do so while you’re awake – or risk sleeping in.
“iOS 9.1 is definitely what I’d call a must-install release”, LaMarche told us.
LaMarche added, “Because of Apple’s “walled garden” approach to their platform, iOS users are generally less vulnerable to viruses and online exploits than, say, Android users, but there are still very real threats out there”. This means that no Jailbreak has been made for the latest iOS 9 version. “Given how much we rely on these devices and how much personal information we store on them, that’s pretty significant”.
