Just a quick side note: if you are thinking about trying to jailbreak your phone on your own, you need to know that it is quite risky. My sister-in-law tried it, and found out the hard way what bricking means! If you are unfamiliar with the term, “bricking” your iPhone means that you have made it completely useless – like a brick! My sister-in-law lost all of her apps, all of her contacts, everything! I have a sneaky suspicion that next time she will use the software I recommend here! Anyway, the point here is that you can do it yourself, but I wouldn’t recommend it because it is highly uncertain. It is definitely not worth having to buy a new phone.

The programs I will list below will jailbreak your iPhone in a matter of minutes, which is another advantage of using the software instead of trying to do it yourself; minutes versus hours. You can do it in just a couple of steps, plus you have technical support to guide you, instead of making an educated guess. Personally, I like the idea of having someone to fall back on in case I make a mistake. So, without further delay, here are my top picks (in order from favorite to least favorite):

I thought maybe it was a scam that pretends that you have to be careful with jail breaking and the lure you to buying something on their website.
