Despite the dry Cydia pipeline that continues on due to the lack of a fresh jailbreak, existing iOS developers are still launching jailbreak tweak releases.
This week hasn't been much more impressive than the last, but nevertheless, we'll still recap on everything that's new. We'll start with our favorites, and then we'll finish off with the rest of this week's releases.
Facebook users who are looking for a little more oomph from their app experience are going to love a new jailbreak tweak release called Prenesi 3.
This tweak not only supercharges the app with additional features, but it even lets users further configure the app's behavior and features to their liking.
A long story short, if you're rocking a jailbroken device and you use Facebook regularly, then this is a tweak you don't want to miss.
Sometimes it feels like I'm wrestling with iOS's text-selection feature in Safari instead of it making my life easier. Increasingly, certain webpages either wouldn't let me copy body text at all or would leave me struggling trying to make a precise selection.
More often than not, zooming doesn't prove much of a help. This issue is particularly infuriating when trying to highlight a URL. But don't worry, this is where iDownloadBlog's how-to series comes to the rescue!
Here's a simple trick which helps override this behavior, letting you highlight and copy text on webpages that don't necessarily play nicely with iOS's text-selection feature.
PayPal is dropping support for its mobile apps on Windows, BlackBerry and Kindle Fire devices, the online payments firm announced in a blog post. Existing users will be required to upgrade to the latest version of the mobile PayPal app for iOS and Android, which in February received its long-overdue makeover. Starting on June 3 through June 30, those on older versions of the PayPal mobile app must upgrade to the latest version, 6.0.
One of the top things that those without jailbreaks wish they could do is put blank spaces between app icons on the Home screen.
Whether it's to help with your creative organization technique, or to simply add a personal touch or pattern to your Home screen, you may be excited to hear that it's possible to create blank spaces between your app icons on a completely stock, non-jailbroken iOS device.
In this tutorial, we'll talk about how you can generate blank spaces between your app icons on the Home screen, as shown above, without having a jailbreak.
One of the things that can be really peeving about third-party keyboards in iOS is how you can only jump to the next keyboard instead of actually being able to pick a new keyboard to use immediately after.
iOS developer PoomSmart has the right idea with a new free jailbreak tweak called LetMeSwitch, which makes switching from a third-party keyboard to a different keyboard easier than ever.
I am a Facebook user, as I am sure many of you are too. With that being said, you may or may not be familiar with loading problems that can occur while using the social network via the free iOS app. In this troubleshooting tutorial, we'll talk about some ways you can try to fix problems where the Facebook or Facebook Messenger app refuse to load.
It's been another quiet week for the jailbreak community as the looming atmosphere of no recent jailbreak continues to surround this week's tweak releases.
Now with iOS 9.3.2 available to the public, any team that has been testing a new jailbreak would have yet another software version to try and break into.
Nevertheless, there were still some good tweak releases this week, and we'll start by showing you our favorites, followed by the rest of them in this roundup.
Mobile Mouse Remote is a great app that turns your iOS device into a powerful utilitarian accessory for your Mac or PC. So far, we've shown you how the app can be used as a mouse or trackpad for your computer and how you can use the app as a remote control for your computer, but it also has a lot of keyboard functionality built into it to make your device into a software-based keyboard for your computer.
In this tutorial, we'll show you how you can use Mobile Mouse Remote to type or perform keyboard commands on your Mac or PC directly from your iPhone or iPad.
There has been some talk recently about Apple potentially launching a new way to unlock your Mac with Touch ID in an upcoming OS X release.
For those who are aware, this can be done already with apps from the App Store, such as MacID, but if Apple brings this feature to the native installation of OS X, what will happen to these premium third-party apps?
Following an avalanche of complaints from the affected 9.7-inch iPad Pro owners who saw their device bricked and reporting an iTunes error 56 after installing the latest iOS 9.3.2 software update, Apple has now pulled iOS 9.3.2 for that device from its servers. As first noted by MacRumors 9.7-inch iPad Pro owners who have not installed iOS 9.3.2 no longer see the over-the-air update on their tablet.
As iOS moves forward in design, square profile pictures across the platform are becoming somewhat dated in terms of aesthetics.
A new free jailbreak tweak duo called Round Profile Pic (for Facebook) and (for Twitter) are available in Cydia that let you bring the round profile picture effect to Facebook and Twitter, an aesthetic that already exists throughout all modern iOS versions in various native apps.
