Our favorite releases this week


Hola – $1.00

Subscribe to iDB on YouTube

Hola is a new jailbreak tweak that lets you experience the ‘hello’ setup screen every time you unlock your iPhone.

The tweak also comes with additional customization that you wouldn’t get with the stock experience.

You can find out more about Hola and how it works in our full review post.

PLBattery – FREE

iOS 16 is bringing notched handset users something they’ve been asking for for a long time: a numeric battery percentage in the Status Bar’s battery level icon.

The PLBattery jailbreak tweak simply lets jailbreakers with notched handsets have this feature right now, without needing to upgrade.

You can learn more about PLBattery in our full review post.

Quasar – $3.99

Quasar is a beautifully redesigned App Switcher interface based on Lynx that gives you more information at a glance in the often-used multitasking interface.

With tons of options to configure, you get to be the one that chooses what kinds of information appears here. Best of all, you can find the information faster than you could using the traditional methods in iOS.

You can find out everything you need to know about Quasar in our full review post.

Tosaka – FREE

The new Tosaka jailbreak tweak makes it possible to see weather and location information right from the convenience of your Status Bar.

The tweak strobes between the time, the weather, and your location once every ten seconds to keep the UI uncluttered and clean.

You can learn more about Tosaka and how it works in our full review post.
