The wait for on iOS 10.2 jailbreak continues with most eager to find out if the claims of hacker Stefan Esser are indeed factual. To date, the only working jailbreak out in the open is the Yalu iOS 10.1.1 from Lucas Todesco which was a semi-tethered crack. This means that the jailbreak will need to be re-enabled should the Apple device be restarted.

Pangu has long maintained silence, having nothing to show after the iOS 10 jailbreak revelation at MOSET 2016. The only credible crack they had was iOS 9.3.3 and nothing for iOS 10. With Todesco advancing with the iOS 10.1.1 jailbreak, a group is reportedly working on an iOS 10.2 jailbreak according to another hacker named Stefan Esser. He tweeted the iOS 10.2 jailbreak development that, which was reported by Forbes.

With nothing out in the open, Pangu is once again in the race for an iOS 10.2 jailbreak. The Chinese hacking group is reportedly releasing one soon though time is once again not on their side. Aside from the independent hackers trying to crack the Apple code, the Cupertino company’s aggressive update on iOS 10.2 is seen as another obstacle.

iOS 10.3 is said to be coming soon where the standout features include a new Theater Mode which will be accessible via the Control Center. Before that, Apple is expected to roll out iOS 10.2.1 which is currently in the fourth beta. No major changes are expected, according to 9 to 5 Mac.

The constant updates made by Apple are to address bugs and improve on security measures for its line of mobile operating systems. iOS 10 has been plagued with security issues in the past but such has failed to derail iPhone and iPad owners who continue to look for ways to get apps without shelling out a penny. Hence, it now becomes a race between Pangu and the rising inidvidual hackers for a reliable iOS 10.2 jailbreak.
