In one of its most recent updates, Twitter added a new night mode theme to its mobile app that makes the app easier on your eyes at night.
For jailbreakers who like the feature, but expected more than having to manually operate it all the time, a developer has figured out a way to make Twitter's night mode more automatic with a new jailbreak tweak called NightOwl.
Minimalists who don't like lines, separators, and other visually unappealing forms of UI elements appearing in Notification Center can use a new jailbreak tweak dubbed CustomNC to make it look just how they want it to.
Journalist Steven Levy's excellent in-depth look at Apple's machine learning and artificial intelligence systems used throughout iOS and its other products have left some people wondering about transferring the so-called iBrain database to a new device. Apple told Levy that iBrain is local to a device and doesn't get sent to the cloud.
The explanation promoted some people to wonder if that means that iBrain has to start all over again after getting a new phone, and lose all memory of what it learned in the process. As it turns out, some of the information in that “brain” can indeed be restored and moved to a new device in a safe manner.
If you've got a Mac, then you can easily send iMessages and SMS messages from the Messages app that's baked into your operating system.
Windows users don't have such a luxury. Remote Messages Client, a brand-new third-party desktop client, could change that.
Another week, another roundup. This week has seen another wave of jailbreak tweak releases that are helping to keep those who jailbroke with the Pangu iOS 9.3.3 tool satisfied with the ability to modify their devices.
In this roundup, we'll talk about what's new for this week, starting with our favorites, and then moving on to the rest afterwards.
Just last week, we showed you a jailbreak tweak called AnsweringMachine that took the jailbreak community by surprise and showed us that the iPhone's voicemail system has a lot to be desired. On the other hand, another new release called Super VoiceMail also looks very promising.
In this review, we'll show you what Super VoiceMail has to offer and help you decide which of the two jailbreak tweaks you should go with.

Apple today released an eighth beta of iOS 10 (build number “14A5346a”) to members of the Apple Developer Program and the seventh beta of iOS 10 to public beta testers who are signed on the Apple Beta Software Program. It's worth repeating that iOS 10 beta 8 for developers and iOS 10 beta 7 for public beta testers contain the same features.
The devices on a prior beta can be updated in Settings → General → Software Update, but some users are reporting issues trying to update to beta 8.
One of the fun aspects of jailbreaking your iOS device is the ability to modify the animations you normally see when you perform actions.

Bloomberg reported Thursday that Apple has been developing a brand new Snapchat-style video editing and sharing application that could launch in 2017 as a standalone download, as well as testing deeper social ties across iOS as part of a newly directed focus to integrate more social networking features within its mobile products. These moves are said to be a response to the success of social services like Facebook and Snapchat, according to people familiar with Apple’s strategy.
It was only a few days ago that we showed you a tweak called Vettr, which displayed a nice and simplistic time and battery interface on your display whenever you had your iPhone plugged into a power source.
But now, a new jailbreak tweak called Volt is challenging Vettr head-on with a number of features that you can customize to your liking. We'll show you what Volt is all about in this review.
