QuickPwn Mac.png

QuickPwn was a program from the iPhone Dev Team that allowed people to quickly jailbreak their devices. Initially, it was only available as a Windows CLI tool, but poorlad created a GUI shortly afterwards. Later, a Mac OS X GUI was also released.

The name was exploited (as "QuickPWN") by quickpwn.com, so the decision was made to discontinue QuickPwn in favor of redsn0w.
