Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), warns on its website of the dangers of "hacking" the iPhone (They themselves use the word hack, surprising). They also drop that if your device is modified and you send it to technical service they can refuse to repair it because it is a violation of the iPhone end user license agreement.
The reasons they argue for not doing the jailbreak are the following:
- Device and application instability: the device crashes unexpectedly frequently; embedded or third-party applications hang or freeze and data loss occurs.
- Unreliable voice communication and data transmission: Call drops, slow or unreliable connections, and delayed or inaccurate location data.
- Service interruptions: Services such as Visual Voicemail, YouTube, Weather, and Stocks are disrupted or no longer work on the device. Additionally, third-party applications that use the Apple Push Notification alert service experience difficulties receiving notifications or receive notifications directed at another hacked device. Other push services, such as MobileMe and Exchange, have experienced problems synchronizing data with their respective servers.
- Security risks: These modifications have opened security breaches that could allow hackers to steal personal information, damage the device, attack the wireless network or introduce malware or viruses.
- Reduction in battery life: pirated software has caused accelerated battery consumption that reduces the operating time of the iPhone, iPad or iPod touch that are powered by a single charge.
- Inability to install future software updates: Some of the unauthorized modifications have caused damage to the iOS that cannot be repaired. As a result of this, the hacked iPhone, iPad or iPod touch may stop working permanently when a future iOS update created by Apple is installed.
Is Apple right? Possibly, although my opinion as a user who has been in this jailbreak for a long time and with a high degree of specialization is that is exaggerating and a lot. But it is what we always say, if you install two thousand bullshit on your jailbroken iPhone you will have problems, incompatibilities that can lead to resource consumption, battery, performance loss, etc.
What really weird me is that he uses the word "hack", it's a word that really annoys me when I hear it from people in reference to jailbreak ... Hacking implies something bad, such as downloading applications without paying, but jailbreak doesn't have to be used for hacking. It is true that it can be used, but extending the term hack to all of us who jailbreak seems unrealistic to me.
For those of you who always ask if it is worth doing the jailbreak, here is Apple's opinion. Mine is that If you miss something on your iPhone and want to improve it, do not hesitate and go for it. But if you have plenty of applications from the App Store, don't bother.

As usual, 100% agree with your opinion.
They only had to put: «danger of explosion of the device» ... hahahahaha
They don't even know how to stop it.
I set the alarm this morning at 11 o'clock and instead of that it has put me in danger of fission in the nucleus A6…. We had to vacate the house due to the risk of explosion hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
hahahahaha the gentlemen of apple what are they going to say ?? It is a very logical position under the circumstances. Everything that is pirate will go against apple, they are not interested in defending something that takes money away from them. Well, do you know what I say to apple? That if they took the trouble to make official applications that we find in cydia, it would not be necessary to hack the phone, applications that they know perfectly well that they can be included and it does not go out of their way to implement.
FUCK YOU APPLE!
+100000000000000000
Now surely they release version 6.1.1 with many improvements for us to restore hahahahaha! more battery life (10 more hours) more wifi ratio (1 km) things like that .. hahahahaha
But they are idiots, without the JB apple I would still have IOS 1.0 thanks to the ideas stolen from Cydia is that it has improved a little and they should also be grateful that after the JB their shares in the stock market finally rose a bit.
you must say installer and cydia, remember that in 1.1 it was only frimware they did not call it ios they charged us for the operating system, that is to say for doing what they were required to charge and also for having applications such as notes and mail.
5 years doing jalibreak, 5 years enjoying what IOS should be, apple more savvy and less criticizing what without cydia, you would only be the cool phone
they no longer find what to do!
Oh my God!!! : S I can't receive messages… Damn I can't make or receive calls: S !!! Aaaaaaggggrrrrrr !!
Uffff only had airplane mode enabled !!
HA HA HA HA HA HA…. OF SO MUCH PRESSURE IN LIFE THANK YOU APPLE THANK YOU FOR THIS JOKE… EHHH VERY GOOD JOKE APPLE HAHAHAHAHA… NO NO THAT THEY BELIEVE US FOOLS HAHAHAHAHAHA…. NO LONGER THIS JOKE IS VERY PASSED HAHAHAHAHAHAHA SORRY BUT MY MIND JUST RECEIVED A JOKE TODAY ... MMM BUT I THINK APPLE SHOULD PUT A WAY ON HOW TO ACCESS THE TWEAKS OFFICIALLY ... BUT CLEARLY APPLE SHOULD HAVE AN APPLE PROGRAM OF JOKES ON TV QYUE GOOD TODAY APPLE ME HAPPY THE DAY XD XP
And you should do an advanced writing course because my goodness to read that …… ..
Come Apple less stories and get to develop the ios as it should be, thanks to all those who make the JB possible and the creators of tweaks we have a decent device, in case it depended on you….
I would bet that more than 50% of the users who jailbreak are to hack, and from that perspective it already leaves a trend of use, regardless of the fact that there are very good tweeks like Auxo and Zephyr ... Most people are more tempted to install things without paying.
They never gave me any of those bugs they say, and had all the iPhones on the market hacked as they say. They are very funny
what nonsense. I always had JB on all my iPhones .. is it slow sometimes? yes, normal .. I put a lot of tweaks .. that's what the person who downloads them chooses. With my iphone 5 and with some tweaks I'm doing great and Apple should learn from the tweaks and launch it officially on iOS
What is "Actuality" in this article? I think they are taking advantage of the fact that the Jailbreak came out to put this news instead of putting the IOS6-compatible tweaks that many users are asking for. .

What's happening Actualidad Iphone? You were cool before :/
Good afternoon, I am one of those who does not work the time application and
I can't reboot normally, I need to force reboot with Home + Power. in a 4 S
I have restored again and I have returned to do the Jail ..,
The Jail .. it does it correctly, once it does the two functions that I indicate it does it correctly, but the moment I press the Cydia icon and it loads, only loading it with the essential packages and without installing anything else is when the Time app problem and not being able to restart normally, I need to force restart with Home + Power.
I have seen some comments only about this, it happens to more people or I do something wrong.
Greetings.
To some extent I agree with what Apple says, I use iPhone since its first version, I currently use iPhone 5, for me the iPhone is a work tool and I cannot afford to be with stability problems, problems with battery and hang up. I have used the Jailbreack in all its versions except iOS6 and I really have already given many opportunities to the Jealbreak and it ALWAYS fails me.
Let's be honest, many of them are right now with the story of the tweaks but those who do Jailbreak just for the tweaks is a very small percentage, most of them do it to hack and that is a truth in a thousand voices, we use equipment of hundreds of dollars and we It hurts to spend a couple on an app, we have a poor conscience in our countries that clings to piracy.
That iOS is missing a lot? Of course I am and I am aware, I am one of those who if in iOS7 they do not propose a radical change, I am going to another platform, but for the moment it is the phone that I use intensively and especially for work, I prefer my cell phone clean and not I left dumped at the worst moment by a tweaks gives me war ...
Do not be lice, gentlemen, pay for your applications tinen for an iPhone and you do not have for a miserable application ... hahahaha
I pay for my applications, like the tweak that I also buy in cydia. It seems that for you jailbreak is synonymous with piracy, when it really is not.
hahahahahahahaha but who said that people pirated only to install pirated things? hahahaha if in cydia there are also paid things ... If I have agreed to hack it, it is to be able to fiddle with tweak that do not come from home such as the NCSETTING notification center that seems amazing to me .. So stay with your iphone at home «simplon »While we put it to handsome in cydia..that by the way, a nice name for you to give one of your pets since you won't have it
What goes slower? to certain people of course that if they start to install nonsense tweaks, some are not compatible with each other and what happens, or even many hang or restart because they are not the original tweaks, they are from pirate repos.
By the way, a tweak that apple should "copy" without fail is Auxo.
For the ROD user, that doing JB does not mean not paying for Apps, it is to use tweaks (for which some you have to pay) and customize the iphone to your liking.
By the way to finish, so that some have not found out that they can have cracked apps without missing JB.
Well, on one hand Apple's logical reaction. They cannot say otherwise. On the other hand, it gives me the feeling of always (I got hooked on the IOS bandwagon from the first iPhone 3), that is to say, they release these slogans that the ancients know each other by heart, but with a small mouth. I mean, that with the commercial revolts that Samsung and other manufacturers of Android phones are giving in recent times, I get the feeling that this Jailbreak is giving more than air to Apple, which saw its market share reduce.
They will always deny it, but this reminds me a lot of the trajectory of Sony and its Playstations, which coincidentally every time they lose ground, ends up in a way to open a little the recesses of their closed operating systems.
In any case, it is a feeling that I have. I do not intend to sit a chair, but it is that it has been coinciding since the release of the iPhone 4 and the subsequent jump to IOS 5 and now to IOS 6.
Greetings.
an iphone if jailbrek is no longer an iphone but a smartphone ..
In theory, all the disadvantages that Apple mentions are true, in my opinion the jailbreak is not for novice users, since they always end up killing the iphone, with 2000 cydia packages of Tweaks and other things, they make them slow and aside when they try to update, poof! go dead.
You have to use the jailbreak, not abuse it, like everything in life 😀
I finally read someone who spoke truths like fists. I totally agree with you, this afternoon I was cut off 12 times by calling (it had never happened to me) I have lost coverage a lot of times, I have reset it several times ... I only have one tweak on and the rest just as I had before Jailbreak ... come on if they are right.
Without JailBrake I would not have bought an iPhone.
Gentlemen ... do not eat your head Apple ... it seems a lie at this point ... I have friends with iPhone4 who have been jailbroken for years and have not had a problem or battery or anything ... This is a placebo effect yes They tell you that the battery is spent before now they believe that it is spent before hahahaha! Comes to…
What is true is that cydia must be used sparingly and with a lot of view since there are tweaks that are (evil) are not tested by anyone and it may damage the terminal .. but for that reason I only install the things that my mobile needs and of course what has already been tested previously ..
The day they release iOS 7 we will talk.
