MessageUnread lets users mark read messages as unread in iOS
Raise your hand if you’ve preemptively tapped on an unread conversation in your Messages app by accident before, only to find yourself too busy to read or respond to the message and later forget to look back at it because the notification indicator had disappeared as a result. *Raises hand slowly*
If you joined me in the hand raise of shame, then don’t fret because we’ve all been there before. Fortunately, a newly released and free jailbreak tweak dubbed MessageUnread by iOS developer Greg0109 can remedy this unfortunate experience by letting users mark read conversation threads in the Messages app as unread instead.
LetMeScrub improves the Now Playing widget’s music scrubber experience
One of the things that has always irked me about the Lock screen’s Now Playing widget in iOS is the difficulty of scrubbing through music from the interface to position myself somewhere else in the song. Fortunately, jailbreakers now have an easy way around this tedious feat.
Say hello to LetMeScrub, a newly released and free jailbreak tweak by iOS developer TheLazyITGuy that not only enhances song scrubbing on the Lock screen via the Now Playing widget, but also brings customizability to the scrubber’s grabber itself.
GamingNotification brings animated RGB effects to your iPhone’s notifications
If you’re a PC gamer at heart and your entire desk is brimming with unicorn barf colored RGB accessories, then perhaps the one thing missing in your life is an iPhone decked out with the same colorful swag. Fortunately, that shortcoming can be solved with a newly released jailbreak tweak.
Enter GamingNotification, an add-on created by iOS developer Minazuki that brings configurable animated RGB borders to your iPhone’s incoming notification banners and Today widgets.
This tweak adds the proper suffix to the Lock screen’s date indicator
If you ever want to know the date or time, it’s always just a glance away thanks to your iPhone’s Lock screen. But one thing that has always bothered me is Apple’s native date formatting and display style, something that the company doesn’t seem to give users much control over on a stock handset.
FixLSDate is a newly released and free jailbreak tweak by iOS developer Mikah that fixes at least one of my gripes with the Lock screen’s date display. More specifically, it completes the date string by adding the proper suffix behind it, as shown above.

How to disable COVID-19 exposure notification and logging on your iPhone
The COVID-19 exposure notification in iOS 13.5 informs you whether you may have contracted the coronavirus by coming into contact with someone who's been diagnosed with COVID-19. This secure, private contact-tracing technology works in tandem with apps from public health authority developers that are installed on your device. If you'd rather opt-out, however, follow along with our step-by-step tutorial that teaches you how to disable the COVID-19 exposure notification at the system level to stop exposure logging and contact-tracing via Bluetooth.
This tweak hides the fire effects from Reddit comments that receive the Ignite award
While I personally enjoy using the third-party Apollo client for my Redditing needs, there are still plenty of people who’d rather use the official Reddit app as opposed to an alternative. One thing about the latter that doesn’t seem so popular among users, however, is the fire effect that appears when comments are given the Ignite award.
If you side with the camp that dislikes this effect, then you’ll be happy to know there’s a new and free jailbreak tweak called NoRedditFireEffect by iOS developer Ben Giannis that can disable it entirely.
WeatherModule brings weather details to the Reachability interface
It was just a few months back that we showed you a particularly interesting jailbreak tweak called Carbonite by iOS developer Antique that could be used to enrich iOS’ typically boring Reachability interface with a useful suite of shortcuts and controls. It was pretty slick right out of the box, but with the help of add-ons, it could be made even slicker.
Fast-forward to now, and Antique has officially released a new extension for Carbonite dubbed WeatherModule. Just as its name implies, WeatherModule brings local weather information to the Reachability interface via Carbonite for fast and easy reference at your leisure.

Word and PowerPoint gain Split View, trackpad support coming to Office for iOS by the fall
Keeping true to its promise, Microsoft yesterday updated its Word and PowerPoint productivity apps on the App Store with the ability to open two documents in a side-by-side view on iPad via Split View multitasking support. The Excel app did not pick up Split View support at post time, however. Microsoft has also acknowledged that it's working on implementing iPadOS trackpad support for the Office suite, but don't expect to be taking advantage of it before the fall.
StickyNote is a macOS-inspired note-taking tweak for iOS
If you’ve ever used a Mac before, then you already know about the Stickies app that comes pre-installed by Apple from the factory. This app lets you jot down lists or thoughts directly on your desktop for easy reference later on, and it got some of us thinking… why doesn’t iOS have a feature like this?
Well now it does, and it’s all thanks to a newly released and free jailbreak tweak dubbed StickyNote by iOS developer Gabriel Siu.
