The founder of Cydia, Jay Freeman, via Twitter announced that four million unique users Cydia have ge lwa installed with the Evasi0n-jailbreak. That jailbreak came Monday night online.
The jailbreak was in the first 6 hours after coming online all the 800,000 downloads. The counter was on Tuesday already at 1.7 million downloads. This is the fastest downloaded jailbreak, probably because a long time had to be waited for. In addition, it is the only jailbreak for iOS 6, allowing users of an iPhone 5 or iPad mini only via Evasi0n their device can be jailbroken. Additionally, there are many more iOS devices are sold than when the previous jailbreaks came out.
The jailbreak can be used for iOS devices that run on iOS 6 and iOS 6.1, and makes more tweaks possible that Apple does not allow. The jailbreak can be carried out with the help of a program that can be downloaded to a pc or Mac.
An iOS jailbreak allows users to run applications outside of the App Store to install it, which Apple by default does not allow. This will be a tweaks possible, such as installing themes, or the setting of toggles in Notification Center.
