Apart from some minor modifications over the years, the iPhoneâs Home screen has remained ultimately unchanged since the first iteration of iOS; itâs still comprised of a grid of app icons that fill âpagesâ on your Home screen. But what if we told you that you could replace this with something entirely different?
HomeList is a new jailbreak tweak released by iOS developer Blake Boxberger that takes a watchOS-style approach to

In case youâve never seen this interface on the Apple Watch before, its Home screen can be displayed one of two ways: Grid View and List View; HomeList fundamentally ports the Apple Watchâs List View feature to the iPhone. Hereâs a refresher of what List View looks like on the Apple Watch for comparison:

HomeList stands out from any traditional Home screen interface because it provides quick access to all your apps, complete with gorgeous animations and blur effects. Moreover, it supports haptic feedback and an optional scroll bar to make things feel more like they do on the Apple Watch.
Once you install HomeList, youâll find a dedicated preference pane in the Settings app where you can configure the tweak to your liking:

Here, you can:
- Enable or disable the tweak on demand
- Toggle haptic feedback on or off
- Hide or show the scroll bar on the right-hand side of the interface
- Hide or show the iPhoneâs native Dock at the bottom of the interface
- Choose between a light or dark button scheme
- Choose between no blur, light blur, or dark blur effect
- Adjust the tweakâs padding
- Adjust the tweakâs corner radius
The developer provides a Respring button at the bottom of the preference pane that you can use to save your changes on demand. This is required, otherwise your settings might not get saved.
Itâs worth noting that HomeList is fully-compatible with themes, notification badge tweaks, and XenHTML widgets. With that in mind, you can use HomeList alongside some of the most popular device-customization tweaks available today without a hitch.
If youâre interested in trying HomeList, then you can download it from the Dynasic Repo repository for $2.99, and a free demo version is also available. The tweak supports all jailbroken iOS 11 and 12 devices.
