In a surprise turn of events, Google Project Zero security researcher Ian Beer took to social media platform 𝕏 (formerly Twitter) this week to share an in-depth write-up on the 0-click NSO BLASTPASS iMessage exploit that had actively been exploited in the wild before being patched by Apple in iOS & iPadOS 16.6.1 on September 7th, 2023.
When you rock a jailbroken iPhone or iPad, one of the cardinal rules you follow is staying on the lowest possible firmware (or the newest jailbreakable firmware) at any given time. When you do this, software updates will quickly outpace you, and some App Store apps may require you to actually update for device’s firmware to use them.
Your friends at iDownloadBlog are avid fans of jailbreaking iPhones and iPads. We’ve done it for more than a decade, and it’s a fun experience that we still partake in despite the slowing of new releases and jailbreak tools.

If you have a jailbroken iPhone 14 Pro or 14 Pro Max, then we’d say you have quite the unicorn in your hands. It’s the newest device that you can currently jailbreak, assuming it’s running a supported firmware; and moreover, it’s the only jailbreakable handset with the coveted Dynamic Island.
Apple Intelligence unlocks some powerful AI-centric features on the iPhone 15 Pro series and later, with one prominent example being notification summaries. But say you had an older device that doesn’t support Apple Intelligence and wanted notification summaries on your device; ordinarily, you’d be out of luck, but with a new jailbreak tweak called dig3st by iOS developer uncor3, Apple Intelligence-style notification summaries can be had on more devices.
