Reasons to jailbreak your iPhone, iPad
- jdost 15y agoAlso, there's a beta version of Swype. Kind of wonky, but single finger SMSing is still nice.
- gte910h 15y agoAfter apple released a non-att option, I have lost all my ooph for JBing devices Did they ever fix the "JBing horks up your notifications part of the time" issue?
- joejohnson 15y agoI wish iOS made it easier (or possible, w/o a jailbreak) to write system-wide apps like Swype. I wouldn't be surprised to see this ability in future release of the firmware.
- tobylane 15y agoApparently it's in Cydia now, for Apple's apps only.
- chrisjsmith 15y agoIf these are the problems you are trying to solve, just don't buy something with iOS on it.
- tobylane 15y agoI jailbroke my ipod touch yesterday and struggled to find anything good. SSH is kinda dull, SBSettings, Adblock and a few other basic things are the most useless and ugliest apps I have. This article does point out a few things - some business, some for iphone/ipad3g, some overpriced. So basically jailbreaking is largely useless on the ipod touch. Unless you want to simulate something from two decades ago.
- bradleyland 15y agoI'm surprised they didn't mention VLC. Being able to play non H.264 content on my iPad has been great.
