This document provides an overview of jailbreaking, including what jailbreaking is, the benefits and risks, and examples of tweaks and apps available after jailbreaking a device. Jailbreaking removes the restrictions placed on Apple devices by Apple to unlock additional customization options, but it also voids the device warranty and can potentially cause instability if not done correctly. The document explains how to jailbreak, common jailbreaking tools, and popular jailbroken apps and tweaks for customizing the home screen, notifications, multitasking, and more.
