In an effort to help support kids across Ontario forced to do their schooling at home due to the global coronavirus pandemic, Apple, the wireless carrier Rogers, and the Ontario government have teamed up for a solution.
We’ve covered a plethora of extensions for the popular BottomToolBar tweak including Weather-BottomToolBar and Activity-BottomToolBar among others, but as time goes on, more and more options appear to present themselves in the form of novel BottomToolBar extensions.
The latest of such is a new and free release dubbed PowerBar by iOS developer XCXiao, which much like the name implies, brings a power-centric widget to the BottomToolBar interface.
Jailbreaking has long been regarded as a means of taking control of your iOS device from Apple. Whether you achieve this by tweaking, theming, or tinkering with the very filesystem itself, there’s a little something for everyone. But sometimes, being handed this much freedom over your device in one fell swoop can seem just a teeny bit complicated, if not downright intimidating.
A new beta project dubbed Aphrodite by iOS developer Joey GM aims to make more complex system tinkering more approachable for jailbreakers, whether they’re novices or veterans.
If you’re jailbroken and looking for a fast and easy way to add a splash of custom color to the iOS user interface, then you just might come to appreciate a newly released and free jailbreak tweak dubbed Color Switch by iOS developer ahmedmakls.
Most will probably be able to infer what Color Switch does from the name itself, but for those who are still scratching their heads, the tweak effectively lets you choose the colors for toggle switches used throughout iOS for saving settings.
One of my favorite parts of browsing the internet on my iPad is having a near-desktop-class web browser at my fingertips. Unfortunately, many of the features that make the iPad version of Safari so convenient to use aren’t present in the iPhone version, such as tabbed browsing.
While you can certainly have more than one web page open at once on the iPhone, switching among them isn’t quite as satisfying as it is on the iPad. Fortunately, a newly released and free jailbreak tweak dubbed Safari Features by iOS developer HurouofTech brings the iPad’s incredible tabbed browsing experience to jailbroken iPhones and iPod touches.
To all those jailbreakers out there that are looking for a spicy new way to tech out their mobile Safari web browser, a newly released and free jailbreak tweak called FlatURL by iOS developer MTAC just might satisfy your cravings.
FlatURL is a relatively simple interface-centric tweak that, as depicted in the screenshot examples above, gives the Safari app’s search/URL bar a minimal aesthetic by removing its background and making it appear totally unified with the header itself.
Lots of iPhone and iPad users take advantage of iOS’ Today widget system to snag a glance at pertinent information without needing to launch and navigate complex apps. But Apple doesn’t provide much in terms of widget customization.
If you have a jailbroken handset at your disposal, then you can take advantage of a newly released and free jailbreak tweak called BetterWidgets by iOS developer ShadowDev to get the customization options that Apple has deprived you of since the Today widget system came to be.
Apple on Wednesday stopped signing iOS and iPadOS 13.4, a move on the Cupertino-based company’s part that prevents its users from intentionally downgrading their handset’s firmware version to anything besides the latest release.
Notably, iOS and iPadOS 13.4.1 were only just released last week. Apple typically waits two weeks before closing signing windows for its firmware, but has demonstrated a more aggressive approach to this behavior more recently.
When Apple announced the new iPad Pro models earlier this year, it also introduced the new Magic Keyboard with a built-in trackpad (which you can buy now). But Logitech wanted in on the fun as well, so it unveiled the Combo Touch keyboard.
Apple unveiled the new Magic Keyboard with a built-in trackpad alongside the new iPad Pro models in mid-March. At the time, the launch date for the accessory was listed as sometime in May, but it looks like Apple is ready to start orders a little early.
The Status Bar is used to display pertinent information about your iOS device at a glance, including the battery level, signal strength, and time, to name just a few of those things. While I like seeing the Status Bar in most cases, I can also attest to the fact that I sometimes wish I could hide it unobtrusively, such as when playing Pokémon GO for instance (as it doesn't blend in well with the game's background).
Here to help with such a whim is a newly released and free jailbreak tweak dubbed peep by iOS developer ConorTheDev, which lets users hide and show their iOS device’s Status Bar on demand with just a tap.
Upon refreshing your sources in your pwned handset’s package manager, you should be able to feast your eyes on a newly released jailbreak tweak dubbed Veza by ApexTweaks in your Changes tab.
Veza makes it easier to interact with your device by adding a myriad of handy Control Center-inspired shortcuts and toggles directly to your Lock screen. In the screenshot examples embedded above, you’ll notice that the tweak is as aesthetically pleasing as it is customizable.
