Jailbreak Apple Watch: We Need an iOS 8.2 or 8.3 Jailbreak, Here’s Why - The jailbreak community has an exciting chapter ahead of it - in addition to expecting a new post 8.2 jailbreak utility, the highly-anticipated Apple Watch is slated for release later this month on April 24th, 2015. Beyond questions pertaining to a jailbreak for iOS 8.2, we wanted to address another topic that a number of our readers have pondered: the Apple Watch and whether the device will receive a jailbreak of its own. First however, for those of you who don’t know, the Apple Watch requires owning one of the following iPhone models on the public build of iOS 8.2 or later (iOS 8.3 beta 3 and beyond) - the iPhone 5, iPhone 5c, iPhone 5s, iPhone 6 or the iPhone 6 Plus. While the Apple Watch may function on other devices in light of a new iOS 8.2 and up jailbreak, we’re starting to get ahead of ourselves, one of the devices from the aforementioned list of iPhone models will be required for the device to fully function at launch - it will be available for pre-order later this week on Friday, April 10th. However, before we begin to contemplate the wonders of an Apple Watch jailbreak, we must first have one very crucial component or else such a feat won’t be possible: a new iOS 8.3 or iOS 8.2 Untethered jailbreak. For additional details on a possible Apple Watch and iOS 8.2 and up jailbreak, make the jump past the break!
To Jailbreak The Apple Watch, We Need to Jailbreak 8.2 or 8.3!
In addition to what’s stated above regarding a new iOS 8.2+ jailbreak being necessary for any sort of third-party Apple Watch tweaks becoming reality, it’s important to understand why.
Apple Watch Relies (Heavily) On The iPhone
In essence, the Apple Watch is an extension of the iPhone, it provides simple discrete notifications, quick glances, snippets of information from other apps and possesses basic functionality such as Siri, Dictation (for replying to messages), the ability to make remote speakerphone calls from the iPhone, etc. Everything about the watch can be manipulated, customized and personalized from the Apple Watch app on the iPhone itself.
The iPhone Will Update Apple Watch
Moreover, exactly like the Pebble Smartwatch, and other smartphone accessories for that matter, we predict that the Apple Watch will receive updates not on the device itself, but rather through the iPhone, which will then be “side loaded” onto the device. Once that basic concept is firmly grasped, it makes perfect sense that any sort of jailbreak would need to originate not on the Apple Watch, but rather the iPhone, which will act as the main method for interfacing with the Apple Watch and “side loading” third-party tweaks, modifications and features.
Jailbreak iOS 8.2 to Jailbreak Apple Watch
Put simply, for an Apple Watch jailbreak, we must first receive an iOS 8.2 or 8.3 jailbreak, seeing as iOS 8.2 is the lowest firmware that will support the device. At this point, you may be wondering where we are as far as a new Pangu or TaiG jailbreak utility post iOS 8.2 is concerned, the majority of us are.
In addition to watching the above video for the latest iOS 8.2 jailbreak status, we strongly recommend reading our latest article on the topic, which thoroughly explains why instead of a jailbreak iOS 8.2 tool, we could very well receive one for 8.3.

Well, I stupidly tried to delete all my Cydia tweaks and repos and start from scratch without loosing my jailbreak. I watched a youtube video about ILEX RAT and MTerminal. So I tried it.. and it worked..BUT my cydia would no long open.. and after a rebook I was stuck in a bootloop so I had to update that one to 8.2 but Thank God I still got my Jailbreak on my Iphone 6+ VIA 8.1.2 . i AM NOT MESSING WITH that thing. I will take no chance on loosing my Iphone JB. But now I miss my Ipad air JB so I’m waiting like everyone else for a release. If Taig stays true to form they’ll release it without any warning.. one day it’ll just be there so keep checking here and checking Taig.com cuz that’s where it’ll be first..
