Now several weeks have passed after the release of iOS 8.4 beta 1. So far three beta versions of iOS 8.4 have been released to the registered developers of the Apple Company. Steffan Esser’s video on jailbreak iOS 8.4 has created an unrest among jailbreaking community. Leading jailbreak developers such as, Pangu, TaiG and PP jailbreak teams are also working on jailbreak iOS 8.4. Pangu team became first to release a jailbreak tool for iOS 8 in last year October, just one month after the unveiling of iOS 8 to the public. After that Pangu team updated their Pangu tool to support for up to iOS 8.1. Apple patched the exploits used by Pangu team with the release of iOS 8.1.1. After that Pangu has been in silence for several months. However later Pangu team announced that they are working on jailbreak iOS 8.3 and jailbreak iOS 8.4.

After the Pangu 8 jailbreak tool, the last known jailbreak released to the public was TaiG v 1.2.0 which supported for iOS 8.2 beta 1 and beta 2. After that there is a big battle between Apple Company and the jailbreak developers. Apple is trying to prevent or make more difficult to jailbreak the iOS 8, while jailbreak developers are trying to find security vulnerabilities to be exploited. This battle is a never ending one. Because Apple can never prevent jailbreaking and the y can only be successful for limited time periods. When Apple patched an exploit used by some jailbreaker, then they will find another exploit and release a new jailbreak tool. Pangu team is one of the most capable jailbreak teams existing at the moment.
The latest iOS 8.4 arrives with many new features, such as new Music app, newly improved Emoji keayboard and Apple Watch Companion app. Therefore, once you jailbreak iOS 8.4 with Pangu tool, you will be able to download various jailbreak tweaks developed to exploit these new features. Since i0n1c has announced that he won’t release jailbreak iOS 8.4, users have to wait until Pangu or TaiG team release a jailbreak tool for iOS 8.4.
