Jailbreak Only: New Cydia Update Makes Jailbreaking Less Of A Hassle
by Matt Rome
January 21, 2011
Dedicated Jailbreakers are all too familiar with the hassles and headaches associated with staying one step ahead of Apple in the cat-and-mouse game for iOS freedom. Thanks to Cydia's latest update, the battle just got a little easier.
Jailbreakers can now use the new "Manage Account" feature to keep track of their purchased apps, which are automatically linked to their Google or Facebook log-in, and reinstall everything after a firmware restore or after purchasing a new device.
Now this doesn't mean that you won't have to wait around a bit for hackers to find the newest exploit after Apple releases an iOS update. But thankfully, what it does mean is that the days of tediously keeping track of every Cydia app you've purchased and need to reinstall manually after an upgrade are finally over!
Jailbreakers, express your unbridled excitement in the comments! Non-jailbreakers, let us know if this news is enough to turn you to the dark side.
