Lorem: Swipe to Remove Notifications

Jeff Benjamin, Jan 27, 2012

Lorem is tweak that brings swipe to dismiss functionality to Notification Center.

It is the companion to Ipsum, a tweak that brings swipe to dismiss functionality to Lock Screen notifications.

Both are great ways to alternatively dismiss the notifications you receive, as you’ll see from our coverage inside…

The only issue I noticed with Lorem is that it conflicts with IntelliScreenX’s RSS feeds. It will allow you to swipe the RSS feeds, but dismissing doesn’t actually work.

This isn’t a huge issue, but for IntelliScreenX users it could be a mild annoyance.

I recommend both tweaks, as they feature better implementations of notification dismissal than the stock Apple methods.

What way do you prefer to dismiss your Notifications?

    There are also issues with scrolling vertically. If you start the scroll on a notif, the notif will start moving side to side. I have it disabled until that issue is fixed.

    are you using bitesms? the icon at the bottom of the notification centre doesn’t seem to have the messages icon (I don’t really like the icon and am looking for a way to get rid of it, but keep the message function there)

      It’s not. It’s not even sbsettings. Similar, but it’s not K2NC. I believe it’s the settings that come with intelliscreenX.

    What’s the name of the tweak that puts the Airplane, Bluetooth, WiFi, 3G, etc, toggles on the NC? Is it compatible with iPad 1G on iOS 5.0.1?

    this could be very NICE! and very fast to close these apps!!! tap and hold, to close the apps, is very anoying

      I think SwitcherMod does what you’re talking about. “Drag Up To Quit” is what you’re looking for.

    Installed it because it sounded promising, but had to uninstall when I noticed an annoyance: in order to scroll up and down through your notification center, you must not be touching any of the actual notifications, because they only slide left or right! That’s right, you have to carefully select headers or empty space to even scroll down/up through the notification center! I have very quick fingers and don’t have the time to deal with this annoyance. I’d rather have to click the annoying x and clear buttons to get rid of them.

      Ohh.. I just installed and know exactly what you mean. I’ll probably uninstall soon.
      Hopefully iDB will feature the update when the developers fix it, and it is easy to fix as far as I can tell. It’s a matter of making it responsive only to left/right movements.
      This was really promising though :/
