iOS 9.3.5 Released – Apple Patches Serious Security Bugs
The update comes 3 weeks after iOS 9.3.4 was rolled out by Apple. The previous release patched the great Pangu jailbreak notoriously. However, those who are still jailbroken, or who have iOS 9.3.3 firmware and hope for a jailbreak to arrive soon should keep themselves away from iOS 9.3.5. By the way, Apple has also stopped signing iOS 9.3.3 and iOS 9.3.2 earlier in the week.
