Android vs Jailbreaking

Sometime you heard people or some tech expert on youtube says rooting and jailbreaking is similar and the only difference is “Rooting” term used for Android and “jailbraking” term used for IOS

if you also think both are similer then you are wrong, with rooted smart phone you can use or change the any module of android. but if you have a jailbreaked IPhone than you only able to install apps thats are not available on APPSTORE  , POOR iphone users :p

 conclusion

I will never recommend you to root or jailbreak your phone because Some App (you install from unwanted source) could include malware and while they might hack your phone successfully, they could install keyloggers or other tools that you don’t want on your phone.

There is one important fact if you want to jailbreak your android you just have to go to setting  and Tap Unknown sources to enable ordisable . you successfully jailbreak your android , now its depends upon you which one you want to choose. but it is a fact that the iphone is far safer then Android.
