Apple unveiled iOS 18 yesterday. The latest software update for the best iPhones brings some of the biggest changes to Apple’s smartphone. There are a bunch of new customization options, designs, apps, and interactions. Not to mention all the Apple Intelligence AI features. But customization is what appeals to most users, it seems. And iOS 18's new options remind me of jailbroken iPhones.
After spending a day with the iOS 18 beta, I can't help but notice how much it feels like the old jailbreak days of 2015. I remember the thrill of unlocking extra iPhone potential and personalizing it beyond Apple's restrictions. Even though it was a little naughty. And lots of users did the same. Now, it seems Apple has taken a page from that book, bringing us some much-missed features without the risk of bricking your device or voiding your warranty.
