Something that is used to get the most out of iPhone, but is also used to install pirated applicationswithout having to pay not one euro or go through the App Store
The news comes after the discovery of a WhatsApp alert message in its translation system And this tool has a web page where anyone who wishes can help translate the application so that all its menus, notifications and buttons can reach the rest of the users in a correct language.
