iOS 13 Jailbreak
Earlier this year, jailbreak developers teased a iOS 13 jailbreak. Unfortunately, we haven’t seen a public release and probably won’t see it until well after the release of iOS 13.
That said, if you’re interested in jailbreaking your device, you’ll want to keep an eye out for iOS 13 jailbreak news as we move away from the official release.
Whats Next
The next version of iOS 13 arrives next week.
Apple probably won’t implement iOS 13.0.1. Instead, the company is preparing to deliver a landmark update to iOS 13.1 alongside iPadOS 13 on September 24.
iOS 13.1 is set to deliver bug fixes for some of the early issues plaguing iOS 13. It will also bring back features that Apple pulled during beta testing over the summer.
If you’re hesitant about moving to iOS 13.0, you might want to wait for iOS 13.1 to arrive. It should be more stable than the first version of the OS.
