How to open your folders Velox style

FolderSwipe

If you’ve been using Velox for any length of time, then chances are you’ve ran into the following issue: You try to perform a swipe gesture on a folder and nothing happens. Don’t worry, you’re not alone. Plenty of us have futilely tried the same thing, including developer Max Katzmann.

For that reason, Katzmann has developed a new jailbreak tweak called FolderSwipe. This is a tweak that allows you to perform the swipe gestures popularized by Velox on the folders residing on your device’s Home screen.

Keep in mind that this tweak doesn’t allow you to have Velox enhanced folders, it only allows you to open them using the swipe gesture. This advocates a uniformed method for interfacing with the elements on your device’s Home screen.

I know many of you are already wondering if it works with FolderEnhancer. The answer to that question is yes, Katzmann has ensured that the tweak has FolderEnhancer compatibility before releasing it to the wild. I can also independently confirm that it plays nice with Chpwn’s Infinifolders.

If you want to try it right now, then hit up this GitHub link, and install the .deb file directly to your iPhone using iFile. There are no options or settings that need to be configured. Be sure to share your experience with the tweak in the comment section below.
