Things to Know Right Now About the iOS 9.3 Update

Thus far, the possibility of further iOS 9 jailbreak releases has seemed pretty slim. There has been no jailbreak tools released since then, but some interesting developments have occurred. We’ve seen evidence that an iOS 9.2 on 9.2.1 jailbreak is possible, but the creator has made it clear he won’t be releasing it. But the good news is that the Pangu team has deemed it safe to update to iOS 9.2.1, and one developer is already flaunting an iOS 9.2.1 jailbreak, which can drop any moment, given everything goes according to plan.

3K Assistant, TaiG’s partner, had posted a statement in December suggesting that TaiG had found an iOS 9.2 jailbreak. This made Apple to stop signing iOS 9.2, so the users who upgraded to the 9.2.1 version will need to wait until iOS 9.3 will be officially released.

Although the hacker uploaded the video publicly, the full version of the jailbreak will remain private, meaning that those who are expecting to use the jailbreak version will not be able to check it out anytime soon.

If you’re already on a version of iOS that can be jailbroken, then we strictly advise you to not update at any cost, as you’ll lose the jailbreak altogether. And qwertyoruiop claims it will work on 9.3 beta as well, though he has offered no visual proof to back it up.

The signals regarding the jailbreak are mixed, but fans still hope as they finally got to see an untethered iOS 9.2 jailbreak, although only in video.

The hacker demonstrated a video of the untethered jailbreak of iPhone 6 running iOS 9.2, where he launched Cydia to verify his iOS version, started Mobile Terminal to run his command, and even played with WinterBoard theme. However, neither TaiG nor Pangu have mentioned anything of releasing a complete jailbreak.

In January, Apple confirmed an iOS 9.3 update for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. iOS 9.3 the latest in a series of iOS 9 upgrades for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch and it instantly becomes the most exciting iOS 9 update in Apple’s pipeline.

“It is noteworthy that [these vulnerabilities} can be triggered in the iOS sandbox, so the app can directly attack the kernel … we recommend that users upgrade to the latest version as soon as possible”.
