Ha! I didn't know I could legally jailbreak!bfavaretto– bfavaretto2012-07-27 15:42:06 +00:00Commented Jul 27, 2012 at 15:42

The problem with jailbreaking is you will most probably miss out on the latest iOS version until the newest jailbreak utility can crack it. And if you are using iPad 2 above, (A5 chips), it'll take even longer.pixelfreak– pixelfreak2012-11-28 19:30:09 +00:00Commented Nov 28, 2012 at 19:30

@pixelfreak You are right, but in the case of an iPad serving as a kiosk, OS updates are not an advantage but rather a risk. You're better off doing thorough testing of your software, on the device, with its current OS version, and then trusting that nothing changes - forever.onon15– onon152012-11-28 19:54:30 +00:00Commented Nov 28, 2012 at 19:54

@onon15 The museum will have control over whether to upgrade to latest iOS version or not. So they shouldn't really be upgrading until the developer gives an okay. I guess the pros/cons will ultimately depend on the requirement of the app itself. If it's frequently updated to take advantage of the latest features, then jailbreaking might be a bottleneck.pixelfreak– pixelfreak2012-11-28 22:00:15 +00:00Commented Nov 28, 2012 at 22:00

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. design-patterns), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
