iOS 9 Update: An App That Can Prevent Automatic Update To Their Device’s OS

By

The latest iOS 9.3.4 update will soon eliminate the Pangu iOS 9.3.3 jailbreak but for those who do not want to update their operating systems, there is an app that can possibly halt the future update. This app is called Mikoto. This app can prevent operating system updates from someone's devices.

Owners of iPhone, iPad touch or iPad that has Pangu's iOS 9.3.3 jailbreak installed on their devices, they got disenchanted when Apple announced the new operating system surprisingly. Once it will be released officially, the semi-bound jailbreak that was out a couple weeks ago will be useless once again, YIBADA reported.

For the conservative owners of several Apple devices particularly iPhone, iPod and iPad, updating your devices to 9.3.4 is required since it features fixes and several patches on the security free from potential vulnerabilities. But for some users they chose to stick on the cracked version of the iOS despite of the risks mentioned.

The Mikoto app has the capability to tweak the Apple devices and preventing the latest operating system from overriding the current iOS 9.3.3.

For those who want to try the jailbreak, users will simply execute the Cydia app in order to install the Mikoto app. Then go to the 'sources' tab section, locate 'edit' and then select 'add a different source' to install the app. A prompt 'Restart SpringBoard' will pop up once it is installed, tap that one. Owners should close the Cydia app after the installation and find the Mikoto settings preferences and then turn on the 'software update disabler' option. After that step, your devices are now able to suspend these OTA updates.

The Pangu iOS 9.3.3 jailbreak is good until 2017 and will only work on 64 bit devices. Apple warns those who are using and plans on using this jailbreak that it contains those mentioned risks, Morning News USA reported.
