At this point, there are only two "biggies" (for me) that aren't yet iOS 9 compatible: Remote Messages and BiteSMS. (And one not quite so important but quite handy nonetheless: TypeStatus)
Only two more on my list that I am hoping for iOS 9 updates: Revelation (shows your passwords in clear-text) ASU Update Hider or Update Hider (allows you to hide AppStore updates that you don't want to update) |
Pangu released Mac version http://en.pangu.io/
Works if you upgraded before latest 9.1 Plus tutorial: http://superphen.co/2015/10/28/how-t...pangu-for-mac/ |
Anyone go to starbucks here? Looks like their mobile ordering doesn't work on jailbroken devices(they emailed me an offer, order something and get bonus stars) as it only works on my non jailbroken iphone 6.

Seems the jailbreaks really slowed down. Last jailbreak (unless I'm mistaken) was for 9.0.2. Nothing for 9.1 or 9.2 and now 9.3 is out. Hoping my 9.0.2 never irrecoverably crashes before a current jailbreak is available.

Sadly I doubt you'll ever see another public JB again since there are companies paying up to a million bucks for zero day exploits for iOS.

It was necessary to jailbreak devices in 2008. No need to do that anymore.

Was it ever "necessary"? No. Did it and does it add the ability to add apps that significantly improve usability? Of course.
I see nothing in 9.3 that makes me "need" it, but I am still very glad that in the short life of 9.0.2 I was able to jailbreak and can now use the iPhone in a much-improved way. If Apple will allow Remote Messages (absolutely indispensable to me), Type Status, Upate Hider and the various apps that allow one to use the older versions of Facebook that don't force you into installing Messenger then I may consider not needing jailbreak anymore. Until then... |

By not updating your apps or OS, you significantly increase your exposure to security holes that have been otherwise patched - and that hackers are well aware of and looking for people like you to exploit. What is Remote Messages? |

Being able to text from my computer's keyboard is massively convenient and helpful. I don't know what I'd do without it. I don't have millennial thumbs. :D I'd jailbreak for this app alone.
ETA: This sounds promising http://taig9.com/beta1/ |
Does PushBullet require jailbreaking?
|
It appears not: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/push...810352052?mt=8

Example: tweak that lets you downgrade to older version of app after you learn the upgrade stinks! ;) |
