Although we keep you updated throughout the week on noteworthy jailbreak tweaks, we make a roundup every Sunday so you can see all of this week’s new releases in one place.
In addition to Pangu releasing a new jailbreak tool tailored for iOS 9.1 devices, there have been some other interesting releases in Cydia this week that are are worth checking out, and those of you rocking Cydia on your iOS devices ought to check them out!
Without further ado, let’s show you some of our favorite releases this week, as well as the rest of the tweaks launched in Cydia this week, shall we?
Our favorite releases this week
Nuntius – $1.49
Nuntius is a great new release that adds several new features to the iOS Messages app for a far more immersive experience.
Among the features it gives you are:
- Pin conversations in the Messages app
- Mark conversations as read or unread
- Hide or show individual conversations
- Switch between sending as SMS or iMessage easily
- Load a higher number of messages when opening a conversation
- Prevent others using iMessage from seeing when you’re typing
- User interface customization
The extensive list of features put this tweak at $1.49 in Cydia’s BigBoss repository, but we think it’s well-worth that price. You can read our extended review to get a better understanding of the tweak and how it works.
FastShare – $1.49
FastShare is a tweak that brings Facebook, Messages, and Twitter sharing options altogether into a unified user interface that can be invoked with an Activator gesture.
Although you can already use Activator gestures to Tweet, Post to Facebook, or send messages, you would normally have to assign one Activator gesture to each, which is a bit of a waste of limited gestures to pick from.
With this tweak, you only use one Activator gesture, and you get a customizable iOS-esque user interface. You can learn more about the workings of FastShare via our full review.
