Apple has released iOS 7.1 so don't update if you want to keep your jailbreak

It fixes springboard crashes and better Touch ID support. Good bye JB and I welcome better device stability for my 5s. Updating 5s now and for the moment leaving my iPad Jailbroke.

Wasn't planning on it. :)

I got the notification earlier when I used iTunes to put some ringers I made on my phone. No thank you. I love my JB too much.

The signing window is now closed for iOS 7.0.6
The signing window closed around 1 hour after iOS 7.1 was released

Does that mean it's too late for me to jailbreak, even if I stay on 7.0.6 ?

Yup. I'm holding off till they announce something for 7.1 then I'll update. Till then I'm happy with my jailbroken iPhone and iPad.

Thanks guys.

Just doesn't seem like a must have upgrade for me.
- iOS in the car: not planning on buying a car in the couple of years.
-iTunes Radio: I'm in Canada, we don't have it yet.
- New Siri input method: underwhelming.
- Shift button enhancements: if the shift button was causing confusion for you, your problems run deeper than a software update.
- Touch ID improvements: I have an iPhone 5, so...next.
-UI refinements: I truly don't care about that sort of thing.

Auto HDR sounds good to me, but that's it.

I'll stay where I am, and one day get my lazy **** around to JB'ng.

Great summary LazyStarGazer! I have not had any issues with my iPhone 5
since I I've had my JB. What is being offered in 7.1 is completely not worth it to me :)

Btw, a software update is not needed to enable iTunes Radio in Canada or any country.
