What is jailbreak for iPhone ?
Jailbreaking is the process by which Apple’s operating systems are modified to remove restrictions and give greater user control over the device. These modifications typically allow running unsigned code, as well as reading and writing to the root filesystem, both of which are normally prevented by Apple. Jailbreaking is most popular on, and most associated with, Apple’s mobile operating systems iOS and iPadOS, though it also exists in various forms on tvOS, watchOS, macOS, and audioOS.
What devices can be jailbroken at the moment ?
All the iPhones (A14 and below) up to iOS 14.3 and all iPhones (A13 and below) up to iOS 14.8.
