To add to the above, your iPhone is always in something called "jail"; it restricts what your applications and settings can do in relation to things on the device that they don't want accessed it also prevents you from getting root access to the filesystem. (Jailbreak takes away both these problems - pretend you are breaking your phone out of jail and getting freedom) It really brings a whole new world to the phone. For instance the community has developed many of the features you see in iOS7 way before Apple brought them into the operating system. (Moving background, themes with a flat look, multitasking, different slide to unlock animations, etc etc) I personally use it for themes and being able to reply to texts without opening the text app (biteSMS quickReply). It's a feature Apple really needs to implement.
Yep. biteSMS is my favorite jailbroken app.
