[quote]As I have said I’m not up on these kinda things but I’m I right in thinking that this is used by Jailbroken devices only?[/quote]
That’s correct. A Wallet on some iDevices is better than a wallet on none.

But I’m aiming for simplicity for the user, I’ve jailbroken iPhones in the past and back then it was a total nut ache! unless it’s got a lot simpler the average Joe or Josephine isn’t going to be interested in it.

The latest jailbreak tool requires the user to press a single button and the wait for the jailbreak to complete. If you get the wallet app into one of the main repository’s (easier than you might think) then it’ll show in Cydia by default.
I really think it is worth considering. There is a hell of a lot of jalibroken iDevices out there.

Of course it will open up the possibility to have a mobile wallet for a minority of iPhone users but the general mainstream populous of iPhone customers will never even consider jailbreaking. Hell some wont even know what the term means lol. In the long-term it is these non tech-savvy people that we want to become introduced to the world of crypto currencies. So it is indeed a big shame that Apple are locking us out from producing a mobile solution for their customers.
