If you’re into jailbreaking iPhones and iPads, then you’ve got a second home here at iDownloadBlog.

If you’re unhappy with the search results that the YouTube app serves you when searching for something in particular, such as when looking up how-to videos to get something done in a pinch, then you might take an interest in a newly released and free jailbreak tweak called Gonerino by iOS developer Adrian Castro (castdrian).

Apple knew that iPhone users were starving for new features in the stock Calculator app, which is just one reason why there were so many improvements in iOS 18 following what felt like years’ of neglect.

One of the more significant changes in iOS & iPadOS 18 relates to Control Center’s design and functionality. Right off that bat, putting it side-by-side with an iOS & iPadOS 17 device, you would notice that Control Center on iOS & iPadOS 18 sport a rounder aesthetic.
