Yes, it is.

Jailbreaking isn't...but because the apps are specifically marketed, then yes (which is why the GBA and PSX and NES emulators are illegal if you don't own the games)

I'm guessing that it would since it is their property, they created it and are charging $20 for it, and is most likely patented or copyrighted, so yes it probably would be stealing by getting it for free, sorry.
