iOS 10 jailbreak Release Date, News & Update: Apple’s Strategic Move In Absolute Blocking Of Jailbreaks Starts With iOS 10.0.1

The iOS 10.0.1 was reportedly the fastest update that was released following a previous update released just days ahead. While jailbreakers were reportedly busy creating jailbreaks for the iOS 10, Apple made the biggest surprise of releasing the iOS 10.0.1.

The notable change of the update was its ability to remove previous jailbreaks. This is believed to be Apple's effort in blocking jailbreaking attempts where exploits are tackled via standalone point release.

It is believed that Apple's move in releasing the iOS 10.0.1 before its initial release date may be unorthodox but very strategic, Enstars reported. Through this move, Apple successfully addressed a number of flaws since the initial iOS 10 release and effectively blocked jailbreaking groups from cracking the latest OS.

The iOS 10 was launched with a slew of features that many Apple fans reportedly considered iOS 10 as the most important mobile OS update in iOS history. This was seen as very significant to Apple users that notable jailbreaking teams like Pangu have opted to skip out on the development of the iOS 9 jailbreak tool to focus its efforts and resources instead to cracking the iOS 10. However, having anticipated the strategy of hackers, Apple released the iOS 10.0.1, iTech Post reported.

While the iOS 10 was a heavy patch that consumed 1.1 GB, the iOS 10.0.1 was a mere 25 to 60 MB. The fine print showed that the patch simply included several fixes and security updates. The update can be used on iPhone 5s and later, iPad Mini 2 and later, iPad 2s and later, as well as 6th-gen iPods and later. While the upgrade will notify before upgrading, it can also be done manually in Setting>General>Software Update.

The iOS 10.0.1 is seen as an essential update for those who have the same philosophy against jailbreaking as Apple does. Jailbreaking allows users to download apps exclusive to Android OS like games or lifestyle apps. This way the user gets the best of both worlds.

Jailbreaks also allows users to personalize their device and unlock the phone in general while there are also option for reverse jailbreaking. Pangu is expected to move faster in creating a jailbreak because rumor has it that Apple has found a way to close the group's entry point into the Apple system.
