This tweak prevents you from missing Apple Watch notifications when you’re heavily dressed

One thing I love about having an Apple Watch is being tapped on the wrist when all my important notifications come through. But in certain situations, such as when wearing a winter coat with long and heavy sleeves that cover your wrists, feeling those subtle taps can be nearly impossible.

Spearheading a solution to this problem is a newly released and free jailbreak tweak called Winter Mode for Apple Watch by iOS developer Ayden Panhuyzen. Once installed, this tweak forces both your Apple Watch and iPhone to notify you about any incoming notifications simultaneously.

Compactor brings the Apple Watch’s font to your pwned iPhone or iPad

If you have an Apple Watch, then you’ve undoubtedly noticed that it sports an entirely different system font than your iPhone does. Typically, you’d need to install performance-impacting or battery-guzzling add-ons to change your system font, but with a new and free jailbreak tweak called Compactor by iOS developer Jamie Bishop, you can bring the Apple Watch’s native font to your iPhone without these ill side-effects.

As depicted in the screenshot examples above, the Apple Watch’ system font, also known as SF Compact, is both smaller and more legible than the iPhone’s native system font.
