Every year when a new iPhone comes out, you can expect to see drop test videos that see just how durable the device is.
In this post, we'll show you some of the best drop test videos for the iPhone 7 & 7 Plus.
Game publisher Niantic has launched a minor update for the popular GPS-based Pokémon GO game for the iOS platform bug fixes.
Version 1.7.1 can now be downloaded from the App Store and comes just three days after the update that enabled buddy Pokémon in the game.
You're probably accustomed to hearing the typical keyboard clicks as you type on your iPhone, but a new jailbreak tweak called MusicalKeyboard aims to make things a little more interesting by playing the sounds of musical instruments instead.
The iPhone 7 packs in a bigger, more sophisticated Taptic Engine that one in the iPhone 6s. Taptic Engine, of course, is Apple's fancy marketing moniker for force feedback. The iPhone 7's enhanced Taptic Engine is capable of reproducing a range of subtle vibrations.
In fact, it's so good that Apple has decided to provide a new API to developers to add custom vibratory feedback to their apps. If you dislike this feature, you can turn off iPhone 7 haptics for things like system controls and other interactions.
The LED flash on the back of your iPhone can be used for so much more than just lighting the way for good low-light photographs; it also makes a good notification device.
For those who agree, FlashAlert is a new jailbreak tweak that takes advantage of this idea by letting you configure custom LED flash patterns for your incoming notifications on a per-app basis.
As you know, iMessage overcomes many of the limitations of standard MMS. Every time you attach an image taken on your iPhone and iPad to an iMessage, it's delivered in its original size and resolution. Some downscaling may occur, but only for very high resolution images: those taken with an iOS device are always delivered in their original form without any resizing taking place.
And herein lies a problem for those of you who send a lot of images via a cellular data connection.
Knowing a typical photo taken on an iPhone 6s weighs in at between three to five megabytes (or even more), it does add up pretty quickly. If you're concerned about cellular data consumption (as you should be), pay attention as Messages on iOS 10 offers a brand new low quality mode.
We've determined it downscales images sent through iMessage to circa 100 kilobytes each. In other words, for the amount of data you'd normally spend to shoot someone a single photo via iMessage you get to send 30 to 50 images in low quality mode.
Less than two weeks ago, iOS hacker Luca Todesco, better known to the community as @qwertyoruiop, showed off a working jailbreak on iOS 10, that he called yaluX.
Now he's at it again with an even more detailed video that demonstrates working Cydia Substrate-based jailbreak tweaks.
One of the main features of iMessage lets you and your recipients know when the other person is typing. For some, this is a little unsettling and doesn't give you the privacy you may want.
Fortunately, a new free jailbreak tweak called MessageTypingIndicator provides a way to turn this feature off.
Has this ever happened to you? You were laying in bed or shifting your position on the couch and all of a sudden your iPhone's screen orientation switched on you when you didn't want it to?
If this sounds familiar, and happens often for you, then a new free jailbreak tweak dubbed UndoRotation could very quickly become your new best friend.
The latest Pokémon GO update blocks jailbreakers from using the game in a move to crack down on third-party apps and tweaks that harvest data for Pokémon tracking and cheating.
Of course, not all jailbreakers cheat in Pokémon GO, so it's a pretty harsh assumption on their part, so in this piece, we'll discuss how you can run Pokémon GO on your jailbroken device even if you have the latest update.
Apple officially launched iOS 10 to the hands of the public this week with more than 100 new features for iPhone and iPad users.
It looks like an exciting update, but we know some people are still wary of updating this early in the game. So to find out where you stand, we've launched another poll you can participate in.
The native quick reply interface in iOS is useful because you can respond to several kinds of notifications from many different apps from almost anywhere in iOS. On the other hand, the Send button is in an awkward place, and that's what a new free jailbreak tweak called Quick Send hopes to fix.
