Most Apple users are likely to be on iOS 9.3.5 as we speak though it won’t be long before iOS 10 rolls out. In fact, Apple has set a release date for it and it will be on September 13.
That said, Pangu is technically on the clock to put up or shut up. This has something to do with their touted iOS 10 jailbreak which came out a couple of months ago. No working jailbreak is in the mix right now for Apple users already on iOS 9.3.5, expect for those who have held off to user previous cracks.
iOS 10 was confirmed as expected when Apple unveiled the iPhone 7 and Apple Watch 2. Siri is the next operating system’s notable improvement, something that should go along with other bugs and fixes still to be covered.
Other than that, iOS 10 enhancements include widgets, notifications, user interface, and apps. iOS 10is included as the default OS for the iPhone 7/ 7 Plus upon release and will touch on other devices starting Sept. 13. Among the devices include the iPod Touch (6th Gen), iPhone 5 and up, iPad Mini 2, iPad (4th Gen), iPad Air, and the iPad Pro.
Pangu’s move
Hence, the window for Pangu to strike is at hand. All that starts once they get hold of the latest iOS 10, something expected to be different from the one that they jailbroke back in July, Yahoo reported.
One thing going for the hacking group is that they are technically halfway cracking iOS 10. Hence, it all depends on what Apple developers tweaked for the mobile operating system in the last two months.
Pangu is pressed for time to come out with an iOS 10 jailbreak. Worth noting is that Apple has been notorious for coming out with patch updates, meaning they too are busy monitoring the situation.
Assuming Pangu does come forth with an iOS 10 jailbreak, expect Apple to frantically release an update thereafter. If they were able to do it to address that “Pegasus” issue, they can easily do the same once iOS 10 is breached.
