There are a lot of people who love the iPhone but most are not happy about certain aspects of it. The biggest issue that most people have is the way Apple controls what you can do with your phone. This is why people have started to jailbreak them. While this has become a common practice many people still choose not to, there are however good reasons why you should.

1. Choice of Networks: The biggest reason that most people will jailbreak their iPHone is so that they can use it on a different network. Currently the only network that you can use an iPhone on without jailbreaking it is AT&T. Unfortunately AT&T have developed a well deserved reputation for not being the most reliable network in the world. ipheunA lot of people have avoided buying the iPhone specifically because of the requirement to use them. This is not an issue anymore since you can jailbreak your phone and use it on any network you want. How to jailbreak your iPhone? Well, click the link and you’re on your way!

2. Choice of Apps: One of the great things about smartphones is all of the apps that are available for them. Unfortunately when you have an iPhone your choice of apps are limited to those that Apple has deemed acceptable to sell. Admittedly there are a lot of them available from Apple but the fact remains that not all apps can be used on an iPhone unless you jailbreak it.

3. FaceTime Video Chat: FaceTime is an option that allows iPhone users to video chat, the problem is that it can only be used on a Wi-Fi network. This creates an issue for most people since it will only allow them to video chat when they are at home. If you are out and about you won’t be able to chat unless you jailbreak your phone. If you do you can use FaceTime over a 3G network which makes it much more useful.

4. It’s Really Easy: There was a time when jailbreaking your iPhone required a fair amount of technical knowledge, it also put you at risk of ruining your phone. This is not really an issue anymore. Now that it has been decided that it is legal to jailbreak an iPhone there are companies creating software to allow you to do just that. This not only makes it easy to do but it also removes most of the risk. This makes people more comfortable with actually doing it.

5. Can be Easily Reversed: One of the reasons that people chose not to jailbreak their iPhone in the past was that they were afraid of the consequences. They worried that they would ruin the phone and the more likely scenario that Apple would release an update that would make their phone unusable. This is not really a concern any more since you can now quickly and easily reverse the jailbreak by connecting to a computer and selecting restore iTunes.
