Saurik (Jay Freeman) issued yet another update for the Cydia Impactor side-loading utility on Tuesday, bringing it up to version 0.9.50. It’s the third update for the tool released this week.
Cydia Impactor 0.9.50 fixes a bug that would prevent .ipa unzipping on Windows-based platforms. That said, if you’re using Windows and experiencing problems jailbreaking with unc0ver, then you might want to grab this update.
If you send and receive Emojis from your iPhone or iPad often, then you’re probably familiar with the iOS keyboard’s “Frequently Used” section.
The Frequently Used section hosts the top 30 Emojis you use most often for faster access, but with a new free jailbreak tweak called MoreFrequentlyUsedEmojis by iOS developer A_H_Rabie, you can now increase that number to 50.
Cydia Impactor is a utility created by Saurik (Jay Freeman) for side-loading apps onto your iPhone or iPad; it’s commonly used by semi-untethered jailbreak solutions to install the app that hacks your device.
That said, it’s no surprise that we’re seeing updates for the utility following the launch of the unc0ver jailbreak tool for iOS 11.0-11.4 beta 3. Saurik quietly released two updates for Cydia Impactor on two separate occasions over the weekend with bug fixes and performance improvements.
If you’re like most people, then your privacy is important to you. Fortunately, a new jailbreak tweak called PrivaSee by iOS developer smokin1337 can augment your iPhone’s privacy features with an elegant blur effect that can only be dismissed with the help of biometric authentication.
PrivaSee does a variety of things to help improve your privacy throughout your daily workflow. Not only can it lock other people out of apps on your device, but it can protect the contents of incoming notification banners until you’ve authenticated yourself with Face ID or Touch ID.
It was only yesterday that we saw the release of the unc0ver jailbreak tool for iOS 11.0-11.4 beta 3. But overnight, unc0ver received a plethora of updates encompassing bug fixes and improvements that may seem pertinent to users.
As of this writing, unc0ver RC6 (release candidate 6) is the latest release. That said, there’ve been at least five updates to the unc0ver jailbreak tool since its initial unveiling.
The unc0ver jailbreak can be used to jailbreak all public versions of iOS 11, iOS 12.0-12.4.1, and iOS 13.0-13.5, and it can be installed with Saurik's Cydia Impactor utility for macOS, Windows, and Linux.
In this tutorial, we’ll show you how to deploy the unc0ver jailbreak on your compatible device with Cydia Impactor.
The jailbreak community has been rather captivating as of late. While jailbreak tweak releases have been somewhat slow, there’ve been some exciting developments concerning exploitation and jailbreak demos. That said, the future looks bright for jailbreaking.
In this roundup, we’ll showcase all the jailbreak tweaks released in Cydia from Monday, October 8th to Sunday, October 14th. As usual, we’ll kick things off by discussing our favorite releases in detail first and then outline the rest of them afterward.
For the last several months, anyone with an interest in jailbreaking iOS 11 had no other option besides Electra for iOS 11.0-11.3.1. But as of this weekend, things are changing.
On Sunday, former Electra Team member Pwn20wnd announced the release of a new open-source semi-untethered jailbreak tool dubbed unc0ver, and it’s being billed “the most advanced jailbreak tool.” Moreover, enc0ver is cited as being a joint effort between Pwn20wnd and hacker Sam Bingner, with the UI having been designed by Dennis Bednarz and Samg_is_a_Ninja.
At iDB, we’ve been covering iOS 11 jailbreak tweak releases since the initial public release of Electra for iOS 11.0-11.1.2. Fast-forward a few months, and Electra picked up support for iOS 11.2-11.3.1, and there have been several more jailbreak tweak releases.
In this roundup, we’ll discuss some of the best jailbreak tweak releases since the original Electra jailbreak release. With a little luck, perhaps you’ll find a gem from the Cydia Store that you never knew about.
Most modern iPhones support 3D Touch, a means of pressing firmly on your display to reveal additional options or features at a glance. Using a 3D Touch gesture on a Home screen app icon exposes a bevy of shortcuts for that specific app.
As useful as these 3D Touch menus can be, Apple doesn’t let you customize their appearance out of the box. Fortunately, a new free jailbreak tweak called Better3DMenus by iOS developer dpkg_ picks up the slack.
One of our favorite parts of jailbreaking is that you can customize the locking and unlocking animations of your handset. We haven’t seen a jailbreak tweak of this nature for quite some time, but iOS developer Luke Muris is changing that with a new release called Amour.
Once installed, Amour allows you to customize both the locking and unlocking animations of your jailbroken iPhone or iPad. You’ll discover a preference pane in the Settings app where you can configure the tweak however you like:
iOS’ native Calculator app has received a bevy of revamps over the years, but one thing Apple keeps the same with every iteration is that signature black and orange color scheme.
Depending on how much you’re dying for a fresh aesthetic, you may want to try a new free jailbreak tweak dubbed SoftCalc by iOS developer CydiaGeek.
