Perhaps one of my favorite jailbreak tweaks of all time was Apex 2, an organization mod for your iPhone’s Home screen that permitted you to have nested app icons instead of folders.

Just a few days ago, iOS hacker Pwn20wnd launched a pre-release version of unc0ver v2.0.0 to the public with preliminary support for Cydia Substrate, several useful new features, and a blanket of bug fixes and performance improvements.
