It’s very hard to estimate when we’ll be getting a new release date for iOS 9’s jailbreak, but Esser isn’t now working on one. According to a report in The Verge, the jailbreak is available through a Windows software package that makes it possible for what is called an untethered jailbreak for iOS devices that are now running on iOS 9.0 up to 9.0.2. Strict regulations of its platform do not let users or developers manipulate the operating system the way they want it. Therefore, many choose to jailbreak their device, a hack that allows users to get root access to the gadget through which they can modify their iDevices. So if you are a jailbreak lover too and want to download the Pangu iOS 9 jailbreak tool, you can visit the official Pangu website.
This means that folks who have the latest iPhone 6S and 6S Plus will also be covered, aside from previous iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch devices. Jailbreaking leaves other vulnerabilities open to the phone (like viruses), so users should be careful when installing rogue software after jailbreaking their devices. Mac users can use a virtual machine to install Windows and jailbreak their devices. OTA updates which are normally easily downloadable and are comparatively smaller won’t be provided. They will either have to repeat the process until they get it right or restore their device repeatedly. What happens if you’ve already jailbroken by way of Pangu though? It should be noted that it can take up to 4 or 5 hours to restore a phone that has failed a jailbreak.
The question users should ask is whether the iOS 9 is as good as Apple claims.
China, however, is lagging, despite the country’s significance to Apple not only as a device market, but also in terms of App Store revenue.

Again, using the jailbreak comes with risks so using it will be at the Apple device owner’s discretion.
