Mask album artwork in the Apple or Spotify Music apps for free with Hazmat

Anthony Bouchard ∙ Updated March 21, 2023

It was only a couple of days ago that we showed you a new jailbreak tweak dubbed N95, which brought a myriad of different masking effects to the album artwork in the Apple Music app and Now Playing widget interfaces found throughout iOS. Since N95 was a paid tweak that offered simple functionality, it may come as no surprise that a team of iOS developers comprised of CaptInc, MegaDev, and Charlie While have just released a free alternative dubbed Hazmat.

As shown in the screenshot examples above, Hazmat works in a similar way to N95 by offering users with various masking effects that can give the Apple Music or Spotify Music app’s Now Playing interface a customized and sleek makeover. Furthermore, as you’re about to witness, the tweak is just as easy to use as N95…

Anthony Bouchard ∙ August 12, 2020

Volume level adjustments are a particularly regular practice for most iPhone or iPad users, whether they’re watching videos or listening to music or podcasts of some sort. One thing that has always been somewhat of a pain point however is that making substantial volume level adjustments can take more time than we’d like.

Crescendo is a newly released and free jailbreak tweak by iOS developer YulkyTulky that addresses the aforementioned scenario by letting users configure a custom volume step amount. In other words, you can make your volume button presses more or less impactful on your handset’s actually volume level.

Tabsa13 gives jailbroken iPhones iPad-like tabbed web browsing

Anthony Bouchard ∙ August 12, 2020

One of the things I love most about web browsing on my iPad is that Safari supports a tabbed browsing experience. I’ve wanted Apple to implement this very functionality for iPhone for years, but instead, we get a gimped card switcher-style web browsing experience that makes it more cumbersome to switch between websites on the fly.

If, like me, you wish the iPhone had an iPad-style tabbed web browsing experience, then there’s no doubt in our minds that you’re going to enjoy a newly released and free jailbreak tweak dubbed Tabsa13 by iOS developer Kevin Muller as it brings this very functionality to jailbroken iPhones everywhere.

Altilium alerts you of low battery a third time at a percentage you choose

Anthony Bouchard ∙ August 11, 2020

If you put your iPhone through a hard days’ worth of work without any charging, then chances are you’ll eventually see the 20% and perhaps even the 10% battery remaining alerts as the handset’s battery percentage falls. Still, 20% battery is enough to get you through a solid hour of use, and many people have a tendency to dismiss these alerts until their battery level gets so low that the device finally dies.

Because of the aforementioned circumstances, iOS developer quiprr figured that it might be beneficial for iPhone users to have a third low battery level alert at a user-designated percentage. With that thought in mind, a new and free jailbreak tweak dubbed Altilium was conveniently conceived.

Selenium lets jailbreakers ‘snooze’ individual notifications until later

Anthony Bouchard ∙ Updated August 21, 2022

Whether you’re busy and just can’t get to notifications right this very second or you simply wish you had the ability in iOS to save specific notifications for a future time or date, we believe a newly released and free jailbreak tweak dubbed Selenium by iOS developer LGAriv provides an optimal solution for both of these potential scenarios.

Selenium is being marketed by the developer as a notification-snoozing interface for the iOS platform. It’s used to make specific notifications disappear for a certain amount of time before reappearing in the same place they were originally snoozed from. Moreover, reappearing notifications include a helpful indicator to remind the user that they were previously snoozed with Selenium.

Anthony Bouchard ∙ Updated February 17, 2022

If you enjoy listening to music with your iPhone, then you’re definitely not alone. While there are a lot of options available for listening to music on the iOS platform, Apple Music is perhaps the most popular because of its deep first party integration with Apple’s native interfaces and services. As great as it is, however, it doesn’t offer a whole lot by way of customization…
