Let’s Talk iOS 331: Extreme precision

Cody keeps reminding Sebastien how much he’s changed since he started making watches and drinking fancy coffee. It doesn’t stop them from talking about new Samsung devices, nonsensical design decisions, and imagining what a new Apple TV could bring to the table.

Gravitation brings gravity to your jailbroken iPhone’s Home screen

Longtime jailbreakers like myself will remember those fun and quirky jailbreak tweaks that could be invoked to simulate gravity on your iPhone’s Home screen. Upon triggering a configured Activator gesture, one could watch in awe as their Home screen icons all fell to the bottom of the screen, almost as if there was a gravitational pull being imposed on them.

It’s been a while since we’ve witnessed such a tweak, but with newfangled jailbreaks like checkra1n and unc0ver permitting various iOS 13 devices to be pwned, now seems like a as good a time as ever for such tweaks to surface once more. That’s why iOS developer Kritanta has released a new and free jailbreak tweak called Gravitation.

Unc0ver v4.0.2 released to address issues with jailbreaking iOS 13.0-13.2.3

The unc0ver jailbreak received official support for iOS 13.0-13.3 on A12(X)-A13 devices over the weekend thanks to Brandon Azad's OOB Timestamp tfp0 exploit, but from what we can gather, the release wasn’t without its initial flaws as a plethora of users reported issues when trying to jailbreak versions of iOS older than that of 13.3.

Fortunately for those affected by the aforementioned issues, Pwn20wnd has released yet another update for unc0ver to address them, this time bringing the jailbreak tool up to version 4.0.2. The hacker announced the update via Twitter just this afternoon:
