Leading the Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) rumor mill today is news of a keyboard fix. Today, we’ll look at that and other Apple Rumors for Friday.
Keyboard Update: Owners of devices running iOS 13.1 or iPadOS 13.1 have new updates to download, reports MacRumors. These new updates are iOS 13.1.1 and iPadOS 13.1.1. These include a fix for a security vulnerability that gave third-party keyboards full access to the device even when they weren’t in use. It also includes a couple of other fixes as well. Among these are issues with Siri and battery drain problems.
iPhone Jailbreak: A new hack may allow iPhone owners to jailbreak their devices, BGR notes. This jailbreak is called “checkm8” and the hacker behind it claims that Apple can’t stop it with an update. According to the maker of the jailbreak, it will work with all iPhone devices ranging from the iPhone 4S to the iPhone X. The jailbreak itself isn’t working yet, but could result in an app that allows these iPhone devices to have their security broken.
