Tako brings a Priority Hub-like notification experience to jailbroken iOS 14 handsets for free

In 2014, a jailbreak tweak called Priority Hub made waves when it brought Blackberry 10-inspired Lock Screen notification grouping to pwned iPhones. The concept was so popular that releases like Atmos and Axon sought to do the same on newer versions of iOS several years later.

Now that iOS 14 is the latest jailbreakable firmware, it’s unsurprising to see another developer coming out with a modern-day Priority Hub. Xyaman just this week launched a brand-new tweak dubbed Tako that does exactly that.

Jailbreak tweaks of the week: Emoji Search for iPad, lockdown beta, Sonitus, & more…

It’s been a bit noisier in the jailbreak community than usual this past week following the successful publicized update of Taurine v1.0.7 for iOS & iPadOS 14 with anti-bootloop mitigations and startup repair tools alongside a seriously upgraded Sileo package manager.

But amid everything that has changed in the jailbreak community this past week, one thing that hasn’t is the demand for a centralized place to digest everything new in one convenient place, and that’s what this jailbreak tweak and news roundup is all about.

Accent Custom provides jailbreakers with boundless UI color-tinting options

At the end of 2019, we showed you a jailbreak tweak called Accent that could have been used to tint various facets of the iOS or iPadOS user interface.

Sileo Team updates Sileo package manager to v2.2.1 with more bug fixes

In case you missed it, the Sileo Team released a substantial update for the Sileo package manager this Thursday morning that brought it up to version 2.2 with a rather extensive change log. In addition to making Sileo compatible with all existing jailbreaks, the update also brought a significant number of new features, bug fixes, and improvements.

Thursday evening, the Sileo Team followed up with the larger and more significant update by launching a secondary smaller update. The latest version of Sileo is now version 2.2.1.

Sileo v2.2 out of public beta, now available for everyone with countless improvements

The Sileo Team unleashed a public beta build of Sileo version 2.2 with an extensive change log this past weekend. Given all the new features and improvements that this particular version of the popular package manager encompassed, it doesn’t come as much of a surprise that it energized the user base.

Those who’ve been patiently waiting for an actual public release (as opposed to a public beta build) will be excited to learn that Sileo v2.2 is now available to the masses. The update should populate for existing Sileo users upon launching the app and refreshing installed sources.
