5 reasons why not to jailbreak iPod touch or iPhone.

Although jail breaking and iPod touch or iPhone may be useful at times, there are also a lot of problems one faces when he or she jail breaks their device. In this post you will find 5 reasons why not to jailbreak your Apple device.

5. Warranty expires.

It is against Apple`s warranty agreement to Jailbreak. If you Jailbreak your device, apple takes no responsibility to fix it. Even if you get warranty for like 2 years, and if your device breaks, then Apple won`t fix it.

4. You may be restoring a lot.

If you have a Jailbroken device you probably have themes for your device. Some themes can brick your iPod or iPhone which means your device is not capable of doing anything, I my self have restored my iPod 2 times. I tried backing up but none of my stuff came back. All your data will be lost.

3.Crashes

Your device will be crashing a lot, maybe you are changing themes using winterboard, or using some apps, your device will crash a lot.


2.Glitches

With your Jailbroken device, you will encounter many glitches. For example, your keyboard will respond slowly, apps will take longer to load, apps will crash and etc. Even when your in Cydia, it will take long to reload data and updating all your Cydia products at the same time will lead into bricking. Happened to me once.

1. Illegal apps.

Even though installing paid apps for free from installous seems like a pleasure, it is against the law to download these apps. It is considered piracy and could lead to trouble. One might think its hard to get caught, but the FBI is working hard to increase their security and are going to soon catch people. You might never know when they are tracking you.


Jailbreaking does have some good benefits, but it does come with its downs. These 5 reasons are just the beginning there are also security issues as well as updating IOS issues. These are the 5 reasons why one should not jailbreak thier apple device.
