iOS and iPadOS 14 are packed to the gills with a myriad of little tweaks and features that didn't even get a proper mention during the pre-recorded WWDC 2020 keynote talk, including a new battery notification that alerts you when you need to charge your AirPods.
The useful QuickTake feature plus changing video recording resolution and frame rate via dedicated toggles within the Camera app are now available on older devices as well.
A lot of the focus this past week has been on Apple’s WWDC 2020 keynote in which the Cupertino-based company unveiled the latest and greatest operating systems for its line of devices including iPhones and iPads, Apple Watches, Apple TVs, and Macs, among other things. But one of the things that got overshadowed amid all the excitement was a parallel address centric to the jailbreak community known as WWTC 2020.
WWTC stands for Worldwide Tweaks Conference, and it’s fundamentally a live-streamed presentation akin to Apple’s WWDC in which jailbreak developers take the stage to discuss some of their creations rather than Apple’s executive staff taking the stage to discuss the company’s latest and upcoming software.
In iOS and iPadOS 14, you'll see a handy new orange light indicator in the status bar of your iPhone and iPad whenever an app happens to be using your microphone.
One of the new features in iOS 14 and iPadOS 14 brings stronger privacy to the Photos app via the ability to give apps access to specific images and videos rather than the entire library.
It was only last month that we showed you an incredible jailbreak tweak called DockX by iOS developer udevs for upgrading the keyboard interface on your pwned handset. Given just how popular the tweak became after its announcement, it may come as no surprise to anyone that users quickly requested a similar tweak designed especially for iPads.
And now we have it – enter XPad, a newly released and free jailbreak tweak for jailbroken iPads from the same developer that allows users to customize the pasteboard shortcuts that appear on their iPad’s keyboard interface.
It’s not uncommon for jailbreakers to flock to all-in-one jailbreak tweaks such as Springtomize when they want to customize more than one aspect of iOS without installing a full library of add-ons and extensions to do so. On the other hand, not everyone wants to shell out money for such jailbreak tweaks either.
If you’re one of the aforementioned jailbreakers that adores the idea of all-in-one customization without spending any money, then you’re probably going to want to turn your attention to a newly released and free jailbreak tweak dubbed Mavalry by iOS developer ajaidan0.
Along with iOS 14 and macOS 11.0 Big Sur, Apple also revealed the next major update to the iPad lineup: iPadOS 14 at this year's Worldwide Developers Conference.
Jailbreakers can customize virtually anything they want about their iPhone or iPad’s user experience and behavior, but if you consider yourself a bit of a minimalist and prefer subtler changes over the more extravagant ones, then we think you might want to try a new and free jailbreak tweak release called Dots color by iOS developer 8a1wkar.
Just as the tweak’s name implies, Dots color lets users apply a custom color to the paging dots that typically appear on the Home Screen and Lock Screen. As you’ll see in the screenshot examples above, the selected page dot remains white, whereas the deselected page dots appear red instead of grayed out.
Apple during today's WWDC 2020 keynote presentation showing off the new features in its upcoming iOS 14 and iPadOS 14 software updates briefly highlighted one small but important improvement that a lot of people have beeb clamoring for: an unobtrusive calling screen.
Apple has introduced iPadOS 14, bringing a variety of new features to the mix, but also focusing quite a bit on the overall experience.
Electra Team lead developer CoolStar took to Discord late last night to share that the team was working diligently on a new jailbreak tool dubbed Odyssey for A9-A13 devices running iOS 13.0-13.5. If you remember those teasers about Chimera13 in the distant past, then this appears to be that very jailbreak, albeit with a different name.
Citing the brief, the Odyssey jailbreak will ship with proprietary software including libhooker and the Sileo package manager. Furthermore, it will ship with Procursus and it’s expected to be inter-compatible with checkra1n devices that have used the Odysseyra1n script to enjoy the Odyssey bootstrap on those devices.
