Messing around with your iPhone or iPad’s standard animations is sometimes one of the most exhilarating ways to get the most out of a jailbroken handset. But what jailbreak tweaks should you use to do just that?
A good question, and perhaps a newly released and free jailbreak tweak called Cask 2 by iOS developer Ryan Nair should be somewhere near the top of that list.
Hacker and unc0ver lead developer Pwn20wnd cooked up a brand-new update for his renowned jailbreak tool and released it to the public on Sunday, officially bringing it up to version 4.3.1.
Pwn20wnd announced the latest update in a Tweet shared this afternoon, adding that it would introduce more than 30 bug fixes and stability improvements for jailbreakers:
Thanks to developments involving both the checkra1n and unc0ver jailbreaks, it's never been easier to have a jailbroken iOS 13 device. If you have one, and you're looking for new extensions and add-ons to augment the stock iOS experience, then you've come to the right place.
In this piece, we'll discuss all the latest jailbreak tweaks released from Monday, March 2nd to Sunday, March 8th. As always, we'll kick things off by discussing our favorite releases first and then wrap things up with an outline of the rest afterward.
The checkra1n jailbreak tool has received a minor version bump in an unannounced and somewhat paltry update.
Citing the checkra1n team’s official website, the latest version of the checkm8 bootrom exploit-based jailbreak tool is now v0.9.8.2. The change log published for this particular version is as follows:
If you’re looking for a way to spice up your iPhone or iPad’s native Home screen folder behavior, then there’s a fairly good chance that a newly released and free jailbreak tweak called Cartella by iOS developer burrit0z could be right up your alley.
Cartella was designed to let jailbreakers adjust the look and feel of their handset’s Home screen folders. Straight out of the box, it incorporates a plethora of different customization options, including:
The iOS 13.4 software brings detailed Apple Card transaction history for App Store purchases and subscriptions to the Wallet app on your iPhone.
One of my favorite features that shipped with iOS 13 was a native system-wide dark mode that’s both aesthetically pleasing and easy on the eyes at night. Unfortunately, Apple left the Home screen’s app icons out of the picture when making dark mode a reality for stock iOS devices.
Here to address that issue head-on is a newly released jailbreak tweak/theme hybrid called Ayedapt by Surenix – a renowned graphic designer in the jailbreak community.
In this step-by-step tutorial, we'll show you how to remap the Command, Option, Control, and other modifier keys on the external hardware keyboard connected to your iPad.
We’ve witnessed a plethora of teasers from Pwn20wnd and the rest of team unc0ver throughout the past week. That said, it might come off as somewhat of a surprise that the checkra1n team launched an updated public beta version of the checkra1n jailbreak Wednesday afternoon, seemingly out of the blue.
The announcement, shared first by checkra1n team member Luca Todesco, denoted that the latest version of the checkra1n jailbreak tool would be v0.9.8.1 and that it would incorporate substantial changes:
The bootrom exploit-based checkra1n jailbreak initially started out as a macOS-only utility for pwning compatible iOS devices, but it soon picked up official Linux support in a later update.
While the circumstances still aren’t ideal for Windows users, it is both possible and somewhat easy to dual-boot Linux on a Windows PC. But that may not be entirely necessary if you have certain Android devices laying around…
iOS has come a long way in recent years, especially in terms of widgets and information displays. But when compared with a lot of the smartphone competition on the market today, iOS (and even iPadOS) still lag behind.
Enter Velox Reloaded, a stunning new jailbreak tweak by ApexTweaks that introduces quirky system widgets with handy functionalities directly to your iPhone or iPad’s Home screen via the very same grid-space that you use to store application icons.
As you use apps on your iPhone or iPad, your App Switcher begins to accumulate a running history of recently used apps in the order you’ve use them. These apps are suspended in a frozen state to make multitasking more efficient, but even suspended apps use some of your handset’s RAM to make relaunching them faster.
iOS automatically manages your device’s memory to ensure smooth operation, but if you’re a RAM nut then you may habitually force-close all your App Switcher’s suspended apps when you finish using your device. QuitAll is a newly released and free jailbreak tweak by iOS developer Dave van Wijk that lets you do this in one fell swoop as opposed to swiping up on each of the App Switcher’s individual app preview cards.
