How to add iPad styled popovers to the iPhone

Popoveraction Featured

Have you noticed how iOS differs between the iPhone and the iPad when it comes to things like sharing images via the Messages app? On the iPhone, you’re greeted with a simple sheet that slides up from the bottom of the screen. On the iPad, you’re met with a popover style set of buttons. Both methods allow you to perform the same actions, but each has been designed to suite the screen size of the device in question.

What if you wanted to adopt the iPad’s style of popovers on the iPhone? Now you can, with a new jailbreak tweak called Popoveractions. Check past the break for more details via our video walkthrough…

Popoveractions is an extremely simple jailbreak tweak that begins working immediately upon installation. There are no options or settings to configure, you just install it and go.

While I like the popover style on the iPhone, I still believe that Apple made the right decision to use a slide up sheet on devices with smaller real estate. What do you think?
