This week, the Pangu team released the first untethered jailbreak for iPhones and iPads running iOS 9. It came as a bit of a surprise, as some reports made it sound like hackers were waiting for the official release of iOS 9.1, but nevertheless, the jailbreak is available to download at this very moment.
If you’re happy with your iPhone the way it is, you can ignore the jailbreak entirely, but if you plan on downloading it, you might want to know about some of the best tweaks for a jailbroken iOS 9 device before you do so.
