Developers and hackers, Steve Troughton-Smith y Adam bell, with the help of Saurik, They have achieved hack the watchOS 2.0 (Apple Watch operating system), to run fully native applications. Troughton-Smith posted a video last night, showing evidence of the feat. This means that work independently of the iPhone. As you can see in the video that we put you after reading on, they managed to get a interactive 3D object work on Apple Watch.
The big problem here is that even though Apple Says Will Support Native Apps, developers are still limited on these applications. This trick, however, breaks those limitations, allowing the use of all user interface frames, making it accessible. Below the tweet where you can see the video.
So... spent a night hacking with @ b3ll (& @saurik!) - we got UIKit (& SceneKit) apps running on Apple Watch 🎉 (video) pic.twitter.com/khcpHgVsZo

The hack, should also provide a ray of hope for people, who want a Jailbreak for Apple Watch. This, of course, is not a jailbreak per se, and the hacker trio are not offering no details about the hack. But just the fact that they were able to circumvent Apple's limitations is good news. That is not the first time the Apple Watch has been hacked, in this article, They hacked the Apple Watch to surf the internet. As Comex said when they hacked the Apple Watch in the article that we have given you earlier, «The operating system of the watch is based on UIKit, but the SDK does not allow to execute any native code«. And already this limitation, they have already managed to jump.
What if you are sure, is that breaking these limitations will make a possible Jailbreak, but I ask myself a question, Does a jailbreak make sense on the Apple Watch?.
Wearing watches went out of style long ago, you stupid waerables ...
