All thanks to the Electra jailbreak, tweak developers can create add-ons and mods for improving iOS 11 and the software that it runs at every angle imaginable. We regularly cover many of the best releases right here at iDB.
This roundup will encompass all the jailbreak tweaks that have been launched in Cydia from August 6th until August 12th. As usual, we’ll begin by talking about our favorites, and then we’ll wrap things up with an outline of the rest afterward.
Apple's Health Records feature that debuted within iOS 11.3's Health app now supports more than 75 different hospitals, clinics and medical providers in the United States.
By now, the entire world is screaming about how atrocious iOS' volume HUD looks. It pops up right in the center of your display, interrupting your workflow for several seconds before slowly fading away.
Innumerable jailbreak tweaks have addressed this situation in the past, but one of the sexiest examples to launch in Cydia as of late is Pascal by iOS developer Antique.
The iPhone X’s notch compelled Apple’s to redesign the handset’s Status Bar to make the best use possible of the free space available. The result doesn’t look that bad, but software tinkerers in the jailbreak community always find ways to improve trivial things of this nature.
A prime example is a new free jailbreak tweak called FreeRAMUnderTimeX by iOS developer i4M1k0SU. Just as the name suggests, this tweak displays the amount of free RAM you have right under the time indicator in the iPhone X’s Status Bar.
Photography is a common interest among iPhone owners, and that’s why Apple packs a capable hardware and software package inside of every handset. Nevertheless, iOS’ stock Camera app could still do with some improvements.
Enter a new free jailbreak tweak dubbed Shutter by iOS developer Jbrownllama. This tweak provides an extensive list of options that let the user customize their Camera app to their liking.
In this tutorial, we'll show you how to add your favorite Apple Music playlists, albums, or artists to the your iPhone or iPad Home Screen so you can play them directly from there in just one tap.
These will also work if you are not an Apple Music subscriber but have songs saved locally in the iOS Music app.
Apple yesterday released a sixth beta of iOS 12 to its registered developers and public beta testers, coming out about a week after beta 5 released. While people should not expect any major new whiz-bang features to be added to the iOS 12 code that late in the game, we've managed to find nearly half a dozen changes in beta 6 that we think you should know about.
Being that I’m a huge fan of PC gaming, a particular new jailbreak tweak dubbed ChromaHomeBarX by iOS developer Afnan Ahmad grabbed my attention while I was perusing the recent releases in Cydia this week.
Just as the name implies, ChromaHomeBarX augments the appearance of your iPhone X’s Home Bar with Razer Chroma-inspired animated color effects, as shown above.
CallBar by iOS developer Elias Limneos was perhaps one of the most popular jailbreak tweaks ever conceived for the iPhone. The tweak replaces iOS’ full-screen incoming call interface with a substantially less intrusive incoming call banner with integrated call options.
Given CallBar’s popularity, it should come off as exciting news that Limneos officially launched CallBar X for iOS 11 in Cydia this week. Following in its predecessor’s footsteps, CallBar X makes the incoming call experience more convenient for those sporting jailbroken iOS 11 devices.
It’s been a week since our last jailbreak tweak recap, and with that in mind, and with that in mind, it’s about time that we make another one.
In this roundup, we’ll talk about all the jailbreak tweaks released from July 30th to August 5th. As usual, we’ll begin by showcasing our favorites and then we’ll outline the rest of them afterward.
Your iOS device comes with display dimming settings out of the box, but they aren’t very robust. Those looking for additional flexibility in this department might take an interest in a new jailbreak tweak release called Dimid by iOS developer LonestarX.
With Dimid, you’re no longer limited to the chintzy display dimming options Apple provides in iOS. Instead, the tweak augments the experience with a slew of new customization options.
Apollo, a gorgeous Reddit client built for power and speed by former Apple intern Christian Selig, is the only Reddit app you need. And with Apollo's optional dark theme available in two flavors, the usually darkened interface and a power-saving pure black mode.
