It is possible to know if the operating system Android has been root and if the operating system has been jailbreaking iOS?
I think you posted a similar question in the Spanish forum.
First let me be clear on this. We do not provide support to people using jail broken or rooted devices. The community might want to try, but we cannot. It introduces too many variables that we can’t test against.
That said, can you explain the reason you want to know?

I did not understand your answer on the other hand for security I want the mobile application does not work when the operating system this jailbreak or root for reasons of driveability in the information handled.
That’s possible?
Thank you
If a phone has been rooted there is little you can do to protect your data. You can use the OpenSSL plugin to encrypt your data files to keep casual eyes from viewing them but if someone wants the information bad enough, they can break the encryption. I’m assuming from your other post you’re downloading XML files from a server. You would want to encrypt them on the server before downloading them.
On iOS you could use system.canOpenURL( “cydia:\” ) to try and detect if the Cydia app store has been installed. That’s one indication of a Jail broken phone. But people can change the URL scheme to make that fail. You could also try to open a file you know exists but should not have access too and if you can successfully open it, the phone is likely rooted.
But basically anyone with a jail broken or rooted phone can get to anything on the device.
