If your iPhone doesn’t have a Home Button, then it probably has a Home Bar instead. The Home Bar provides a convenient pathway for accessing the Home Screen, App Switcher, Reachability, and other imperative things, but one thing Apple appears to have left out is customization.

Enter myBar, a newly released jailbreak tweak by iOS developer Sirius24 that introduces extensive options for customizing the Home Bar’s aesthetics. And if that didn’t sound exciting enough, it should be noted that myBar offers enough configuration out of the box to appease picky minimalists or even the most extreme of interface tinkerers.

After all, folks don’t always like the eye-searing bright white or dismal black user interfaces that Apple provides out of the box. Some users just want some color, a sentiment that I personally understand.

That’s one reason why I’m excited about a new free jailbreak tweak release dubbed Kaleidoscope by iOS developer SparkDev. While we’ve seen user interface colorization tweaks in the past, Kaleidoscope aims to be one of the most simplistic and resource efficient colorization engines available to jailbreakers today.

Anthony Bouchard ∙ May 19, 2020

If anything’s certain, it’s that the time and energy Apple invested in creating the iPhone’s Taptic Engine means haptic feedback is here to stay, and it’ll probably become more advanced over time as Apple further develops and refines its hardware and software.
