Apple Card has awesome features but the most important of them all, at leasts from a security standpoint, is probably the ability to generate virtual card numbers on demand, which will come in handy for those times when you won't necessarily trust the recipient.
There are no external indicators on an iPhone or iPad that reveal whether it’s fresh out of the box, refurbished, or a replacement provided by Apple through a service request.
In this guide, we’ll show you how to distinguish between brand-new iPhones, refurbished models, replacement units, and even devices customized with Apple’s laser engraving.
In February, revered Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo of TF International Securities predicted that all new iPhones released this year would let you charge other Qi devices wirelessly, like your new AirPods provided you have purchased the new wireless charging case.
Hacker and unc0ver lead developer Pwn20wnd first introduced ‘partial’ A12(X) device support for the unc0ver iOS 12 jailbreak tool just under three weeks ago, but as most of the jailbreak community already knows, full support for A12(X) devices won’t be possible until Saurik first updates Cydia Substrate with compatibility for arm64e devices.
In a short spiel Monday afternoon, Pwn20wnd took to Twitter with a small status update for those still wondering about the status of the A12(X) jailbreak:
Gerard Williams III, Apple's senior director in platform architecture, left the iPhone maker in February after spending nine years with the Cupertino technology company.
You are reading iDownloadBlog. We are a community of Apple lovers. More importantly, we are a group of hacker, modders, and jailbreakers. We don’t accept the status quo. We want things our way.
That means, it's got to be custom, tweaked, or different. This same passion caused me to reach out to ColorWare. The folks over at ColorWare agree—stock is boring. Their online mod shop allows you to order hardware that they customize in their own facility. They sent me some of their work and it’s stunning.
One of the things iOS lacks that I sometimes wish it didn’t is a real-time audio visualizer for Now Playing music. Instead, Apple keeps things bland by displaying nothing more than a Now Playing widget with details about what’s playing.
Although Apple doesn’t seem to have much interest in giving users an audio visualizer on its platform, that’s not to say you can’t have one. A new free jailbreak tweak called Mitsuha Infinity by iOS developers c0ldra1n and Nepeta brings it to the table for anyone who possesses a pwned handset.
If you wanted a quick shortcut to something, then you could surely open Control Center and access the toggle for it. But why waste time opening another interface when the best one for the job is already waiting for you in plain sight?
That’s the idea behind a new free jailbreak tweak called SBTaps by iOS developer Hydri, which provides jailbreakers with the ability to use their handset’s Status Bar as an intuitive interface for accessing shortcuts and toggles.
Unlike some of the earliest cell phones that made it to the public market, the iPhone can do so much more than just make and receive phone calls. With that in mind, the native Phone app is often overlooked in regards to personal customization and features.
To those who feel the same way, a new free jailbreak tweak called NPF by iOS developer Easy-Z brings at least some form of customization to the iPhone’s Phone app. With it, you’ll be able to customize the shape and size of the keypad buttons to give them a new look and feel, as shown above.
On March 25, 2019 Apple announced the upcoming Apple Card. The user interface for the new Apple Card is dynamically colored based on the spending categories in which you make purchases with the card. Today's Wallpapers of the Week are themed gradients based on those spending categories and the dynamic color schemes of the card itself.
Jailbreak tweak developers have been particularly busy these past several weeks, and this week was no exception. We unquestionably have the unc0ver iOS 12 jailbreak to thank for this sudden revitalization, and there’s still much more to come.
In case you haven’t been following along as closely as you should have, this roundup will summarize all this week’s new jailbreak tweak releases. As usual, we’ll kick things off by discussing our favorites first and then outline the rest afterward.
