Maize, Translucency Infinity, and other jailbreak tweaks to check out this weekend
Although we still don’t have a jailbreak for iOS 11 yet as of this writing, developers continue to pump out jailbreak tweaks for iOS 10 devices that modify or augment the stock experience.
In this roundup, we’ll discuss every new jailbreak tweak released in Cydia during the past week. As usual, we’ll start by showcasing our favorites, but we’ll outline the rest of them afterward.
Maize officially released, brings iOS 11-inspired Control Center to jailbroken iOS 10 devices
Anyone wanting to make their jailbroken iOS 10 device look and feel more like an iOS 11 device shouldn’t leave the Creatix Dev Team’s Maize out of their collection. It’s the most in-depth port of the iOS 11 Control Center experience that we’ve witnessed to date.
We went in-depth with the newfangled jailbreak tweak just a few days ago, but we were toying with a pre-release at the time. Fortunately, the wait is now over, and you can officially download the tweak from Cydia starting today.

This tweak brings translucency to more of your iOS apps
If you look at your Reminders app for a moment, you’ll notice a translucent region near the top of the app. Interestingly, Apple uses this aesthetic in very few of iOS’ stock apps, and this makes the effect feel a little bit out of place.
Here to fix that is a new free jailbreak tweak dubbed Translucency Infinity by iOS developer EthanRDoesMC. This tweak ports a similar effect to as many of your apps as you want, letting you gain a little more consistency across the board.
Augment your BBM app experience with the new BBMEasy tweak
Just like almost any other app available in the iOS App Store, the BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) app could do with a few improvements. iOS developer Ahmed Bafkir had a keen eye for finding ways to augment the BBM experience, so he launched a new free jailbreak tweak called BBMEasy in Cydia.
After installation, you can visit the BBMEasy preference pane inside of the Settings app and discover all the ways you can customize your BBM app experience.
Meet Maize, the best iOS 11 Control Center port for jailbroken devices to date
If you’re sticking to your jailbroken installation of iOS 10, then you already know you’re missing out on the new features that ship with iOS 11. On the other hand, an extensive list of jailbreak tweaks can port several of iOS 11’s most sought-after UIs to most jailbroken iOS 10 devices.
One of the most prominent changes to ship with iOS 11 is the modular Control Center interface, which can be tailored to fit your individual needs. While ControlCenterXI ported a significant amount of this interface to iOS 10 devices previously, an upcoming jailbreak tweak release dubbed Maize by the Creatix Dev Team takes everything to the next level.

Instagram Down Image, ShyInstaShot, and other jailbreak tidbits to check out this weekend
It’s been a quite week for the jailbreak community, but amid the recent demo showcasing the first-known jailbreak for the iPhone X, there’s renewed hope that hackers are still working on a tool compatible with iOS 11.
While Cydia hasn’t been too crazy in recent weeks, there have still been a few jailbreak tweaks released this week that are worth mentioning. In this roundup, we’ll give you a closer look at this week's releases.
2 ways to get to iPhone X’s app switcher faster

This tweak lets you save images from your Instagram feed
Have you ever wished that Instagram offered a way to save images or videos from your feed directly to your Camera Roll? If yes, then we’re right there with you. Unfortunately, Instagram isn’t likely to add this feature anytime soon.
Jailbreakers, on the other hand, can get this feature up and running from their Instagram app right now with the help of a new free jailbreak tweak called Instagram Down Image by iOS developer Yutao Lan.
