Add a mirror to Notification Center with ‘MirrorWidget’

Jeff Benjamin, Feb 11, 2012

MirrorWidget is a jailbreak tweak that places a mirror in iOS 5′s Notification Center. The “mirror” is just an image from either the front or rear facing camera; you can switch between the two, and you have the ability to snap a photo in the process.

Making sure you look dapper has never been easier. Check out our video walkthrough straight ahead…

A double tap on the widget will switch between your front and rear facing cameras, while a single tap will snap a photo for lasting memories.

MirrorWidget can be had for free on Cydia’s ModMyi repo for jailbroken iDevices. You must be running iOS 5, and I’m assuming this works with dual camera devices only like the iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, and iPad 2.

Let me know what you think about MirrorWidget in the comments below.

      No it’s not. It disables the camera when you are 20 secs without using it

    I love it but wish you could adjust the size of the “mirror”. I want it to be longer.

      U can do that with ifile! u just have to go to settings of notificationcenter there and change the size of the header to whatever u like ;-) google for the right path cause i did it once and can’t remember the path sorry about that..

    It’s great fun but not very useful in the long run.

    This I believed messed with my respringing, or possibly SwipeShiftCaret tweak, as when installed, went into respringing loop. Neither SBSetting respringing nor respringing standalone would work. It wasn’t until I uninstalled them both that I was able to respring my device. FYI when I tried uninstalling MirrorWidget it was not showing in notifications setting and cydia showed it was not installed, yet was still there….took a few respringing attempts and software resets to completely remove it.

    I saw this and thought it was a vanity app, just going by the title. Should rename it camera widget or something.
