Link: ‘GBA4iOS is Dead. Long Live GBA4iOS’

GBA4iOS developer Riley Testut digs into some of the details about the methods GBA4iOS uses to work without jailbreaking today, and how security changes in the forthcoming iOS 8.1 update will break those methods. Definitely worth a read.

This is likely going to be a tough one for AfterPad visitors who want to run GBA games. On the one hand, iOS 8.1 hopefully will fix the bluetooth MFi controller connection issues that plague owners of the SteelSeries Stratus and Moga Rebel (wired controllers are unaffected) who are using iOS 8. On the other hand, GBA4iOS will likely be unusable until another major hack is discovered, or until iOS 8 versions are jailbroken.
