Apple can make waves with all sorts of types of announcements. Take for example its recent unveiling of new Expanded Protections for Children.

Microsoft's CEO, Satya Nadella, sat down with The Wall Street Journal to talk about the company's latest announcement: Windows 11. Microsoft unveiled the big update earlier today. So of course the chief executive is ready to talk about what's new -- and what he'd still like to see.

This Monday, June 7, Apple is going to kick off this year's Worldwide Developers Conference. And since it's the keynote, we're expecting to see the company showcase big updates for all of its platforms. Even tvOS, maybe. But it's some of the company's services that may get most of the attention.

Contacy provides jailbreakers with a better notification interface for messaging apps
The notification system on the iOS & iPadOS platforms hasn’t changed much in recent years. The stale interface is certainly due for an upgrade, and with iOS & iPadOS 15’s announcement just around the corner, there’s still no telling whether it will receive any changes in the next update.
Fortunately for jailbreakers, sitting around and waiting for Apple to change stuff like this isn’t the only option. That’s because Contacy is a newly released jailbreak tweak by iOS developer XCXiao that brings a popular iOS & iPadOS notification concept originally seen on Reddit to fruition.
Some of the best jailbreak tweaks for iOS 14’s Messages app
Jailbreakers are continuously trying to tweak their devices to make them easier to use and/or more capable than they would be right out of the retail box. Fortunately, there’s no shortage of jailbreak tweaks that make this possible.

Snapify ports Snapchat’s Send button method to Apple’s Messages app

Nova is a new jailbreak tweak for scheduling outgoing SMS and iMessages
One of the things I’ve long wished to be able to do is schedule messages to be sent at a future date. Fast-forward many years later, and this still isn’t a native feature on the iPhone – not even for Apple’s feature-rich iMessage platform.
ChatWall lets jailbreakers set a wallpaper in the Messages app
On a bone stock iPhone, the Messages app sports a plain background — either black when using dark mode or white when using light mode. If you’ve ever craved something with a bit more pizzazz than that, then you’d be out of luck.
Fortunately for jailbreakers, running a bone-stock setup isn’t necessary, and a newly released and free jailbreak tweak named ChatWall by iOS developer Chr1s offers an effective way to change the Messages app’s background to virtually anything you want.
