Conclusion

Jailbreak-free acquisition has numerous advantages over jailbreaks, and only two drawbacks. If your iOS
device falls in the supported range of iOS 10.0 through 13.4.1, we strongly recommend sticking with the
new, jailbreak-free acquisition method. If the iPhone you are analyzing is based on an unsupported
platform, a compatible jailbreak may still be an option.
