Jailbreaking your iOS device largely depends on finding exploits in the iOS code that hackers can use to take control of the operating system and install applications and functions not approved by Apple. Those exploits can be found a number of different ways, one of which is by analyzing crash reports.
And that's where you come in.
Normally when your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch crashes, the report it generates is sent to Apple anonymously so that a fix can be worked out for the next iOS update. Those crashes can contain the information on exploits that hackers need to overwrite iOS. The battle that the jailbreak community, specifically the Chronic-Dev Team, is attempting to fight now is for who gets those reports.
The Chronic-Dev Team has an easy way for users to help support the jailbreak community. |
Obviously, more reports equals quicker results. So, if you support the work that the jailbreaking community does, this app is a good way to help it (and by extension, you) out.
