But of course there are many reasons why Apple wouldn’t want to do this, the most obvious one being that they want to be in full control of their app distribution. The iTunes Store is a major source of income for the company, and one of the reasons people jailbreak their devices is so they can install third-party apps that come from outside the store.
It’s not just about revenue either, as Apple claim to be protecting their users by doing this. It’s true that a jailbroken device gives much more access to its operating system, and on the other hand it can be impossible to verify the legitimacy of software that doesn’t come from the store, so there is some risk involved.
But people have been getting around the jungle of third-party iOS apps just fine so far, and according to many, Apple are actually getting in the way of their users by limiting their access to a proper jailbreaking tool, and they are not utilizing the full potential of the OS.
iOS was never meant to be an open, accessible system in the first place though, and one of the main “features” of it is that it’s actually quite closed and tightly controlled by Apple themselves. The company has a very strict approach to what they allow to happen on a device running iOS, and some say this actually makes sense.
End of the day apple should be thankful that users are buying there shitty iphones and ipads and they shouldn’t be telling people what to do as end of the day the users have bought the phone and if they want to jailbreak them then so be it its all down to apple out for the extra coin and there shite ios and there bloody updates . I would laugh if apple ends up not selling phones or ipads and then they will have brought it on themselves . End of the Day APPLE SUcks !!!!! over priced gadgets .
