10 reasons why you should jailbreak your iPhone
Apple and its iPhone have definitely created, over the past 2 years, a major revolution in the way we use our phone. In terms of technology: the best capacitive touch screen ever and a powerful CPU/GPU in a sleek device; in terms of user-interface: a whole new concept of navigating through the menus of your phone with your finger-tip; and of course, probably the most important of all, in terms of ecosystem: a powerful SDK combined with a 30/70 revenue share app store on iTunes. All this has allowed thousands of 3rd party developers to come up with more than a 100,000 apps in just 18 months. There is, as Apple likes to claim it, “an app for everything”.
Yet, there has also been lots of controversy about some limitations of the iPhone, such as the lack of multitasking, notifications, widgets, customizable home screen, etc…
Well, jailbreaking your iPhone (I take no responsibilities whatsoever as per the legal or technical impacts this could have on your phone), might actually help you to overcome these limitations as it will allow you to install apps that you can’t find on the official iTunes app-store. Here is a list of my top 10 jailbroken apps and top 10 reasons why I could not use a non-jailbroken iPhone anymore.
