*A 'jailbreak' is when a User chooses to use 3rd party software to 'change' their iDevice software and run non-Apple approved Apps or functions. This update is compiled to the latest iOS version, and may not run if you are using certain 'jailbreaks'. We are VERY sorry about this, but there is NOTHING we can do. We are absolutely not putting code in our Apps to prevent them from running on JailBreaks, this is out of our control. Please consider updating your Device to a clean, non-jailbroken version of iOS.
