The “iPhone 13” name will stay, apparently. Rather than skip straight to “iPhone 14,” Apple reportedly has the courage to use the number 13 for the upcoming 2021 iPhone launch.

The jailbreak community has introduced a lot of fascinating jailbreak tweaks recently, and given how quickly time seems to pass everyone by, it can be easy to miss those interesting developments along the way as life keeps us distracted.
That’s just one reason why we come at you every Sunday with a curated roundup just like this one that showcases all the latest jailbreak tweak releases and jailbreak-centric news.
Give your iPhone’s Now Playing interface an eye-popping makeover with ChromaFlow
Apple is regarded as one of the most influential players in the music industry — not only because of what iTunes once was, but also because of the creation of Apple Music and its seamless integration with the company’s expansive mobile device and desktop computer offerings.
Given just how much Apple seems to have invested in the music industry, it’s somewhat curious as to why the Now Playing interface on iPhones and iPads hasn’t changed much over the years. In fact, many are now calling on Apple to offer some sort of redesign after a seemingly stagnant UI that changes so little over time.
Is it time for Apple to bring back the iPhone’s headphone jack?
We knew it was coming before it happened, thanks to plenty of rumors. But when Apple actually did it, people had some opinions. Now it has been several years since Apple launched the iPhone X and removed the 3.5mm headphone jack from the iPhone lineup. But is it time to bring it back?
Vaon buffs the App Switcher on jailbroken iPhones with a grid UI and integrated battery module
The App Switcher is, at least in my opinion, one of the most underwhelming interfaces on the iPhone. The full-screen card switcher interface makes such poor use of the expansive screen real estate that it’s no surprise we see so many jailbreak tweaks attempting to fix this.
The latest of such tweaks is one called Vaon by iOS developer atar13, which not only converts the App Switcher from a card-based interface to a grid-based one, but also adds an iOS 14-style battery widget to the bottom.
TweakCount provides jailbreakers with a summary of installed tweaks & extensions
If you go overboard on jailbreak tweak installations like I do sometimes, then it may serve you well to keep a tally of how many you have installed at any given time.
Doing this manually would be a painstaking and tedious process, but with the help of a newly released and free jailbreak tweak subtly named TweakCount by iOS developer LacertosusDeus, your iPhone can do it for you automatically.

DigiTimes: Redesigned MacBook Pros with mini-LED screens and Apple silicon due in September

An internal employee survey at Apple shows a persistent concern over company’s hybrid work model
In early June, Tim Cook, Apple's CEO, confirmed that the company's plans to have people back in the office were moving forward. Namely, the company would be leaning into a "hybrid" work-from-home and in the office experience for its corporate employees. But, even with this newfound flexibility, some employees aren't thrilled.
Qualcomm’s CEO says it can take on Apple silicon thanks to former Apple chip architects
Qualcomm is still a leader in chip technologies for a range of products, and that probably won't change in the near future. Mostly because there are other companies out there that need chips of all types besides Apple. But while Apple is making strides, and huge improvements, in this market, Qualcomm's chief executive believes his company can overtake Apple.
