The iOS 8 jailbreak for its beta version is now available stemming from the tweaks made on the iOS 7.1.x untethered jailbreak.
Thanks to Reddit user w0rldello, Apple fans were able to see the first iOS 8 beta jailbreak. The user allegedly made some tweaks on the current Pangu 7.1.x untethered jailbreak and come up with a jailbreak for the latest software.
According to report, w0rldello found some unpatched vulnerabilities in the Pangu 1.2.x and exploited it in order to give rise to the new iOS 8 jailbreak.
However, other Reddit users responded with skepticism over the claims of the alleged iOS 8 jailbreak. Some claimed that the photos of the iOS 8 jailbreak posted by w0rldello were fake. Moreover, the jailbreak for the beta version of iOS 8 is useless as Apple can easily fix the exploit and make some new patches in the Gold Master or final version of the mobile software.
The beta versions of the new operating system are meant for developers to tweak their apps to ensure that their respective apps and games will work smoothly on the new iOS 8.
Some of the software features included in the new iOS are updates to the photos, iMessage and the keyboard applications. The search function, Spotlight, and iCloud will also be improved. iOS 8 will also pack the much awaited Health application to manage the health information of the user such as heart monitor, BMI and track medications.
Recently, Apple has made significant changes on the upcoming Health application in the latest beta version of the iOS 8. The new Health application will make use of the M8 motion co-processor for data sourcing.
Meanwhile, Apple's iCloud storage system was under fire recently due to its lack of security features that allow hackers to get hold of private and personal photos. The issue came to light when nude photos of actress Jennifer Lawrence leaked online after an unknown hacker hacked her smartphone.
