Jailbreak tweaks of the week: BarMoji, MuteVibes, Prysm, and more…

Jailbreakers who are looking for new and exciting ways to modify their pwned handsets have come to the right place. Regardless of what jailbreak you might be using to liberate your device, we’re certain you’ll find something here that you can use to help your device stand out from the crowd.

In this piece, we’ll discuss all the latest jailbreak tweaks released from Monday, January 27th to Sunday February 2nd. As usual, we’ll kick things off by discussing our favorite releases first and then wrap things up with an outline of the rest afterward.

Signe lets you use numeric gestures as shortcuts to apps and websites

Having a jailbroken handset means that you can install third-party add-ons that permit you to take advantage of features that otherwise wouldn’t be available to you on a stock device. Shortcuts that make accessing your most-used features are a wonderful example of this.

Those wishing that their iPhone or iPad would give them fast and easy access to their favorite apps or websites from anywhere in iOS might want to take a minute out of their busy day to check out a newly released and free jailbreak tweak called Signe by iOS developers Tr1fecta and Kritanta.

LockApps helps you protect individual apps with biometric authentication

If you’re in need of augmented security for your iPhone’s apps, then a newly released jailbreak tweak dubbed LockApps by iOS developer Azozz ALFiras could be just what you need.

Just as the name implies, LockApps lets users secure apps from their Home screen by requiring some form of biometric authentication to use them. The tweak currently supports both Face ID and Touch ID, depending on what your handset comes from the factory with.

Barmoji adds a dedicated Emoji bar to the wasted empty space of the iOS keyboard

If you like to use Emojis when you text people or send emails, then you may want to consider augmenting your iPhone’s typing abilities with a jailbreak tweak dubbed Barmoji by iOS developer CPDigitalDarkroom.

In a nutshell, Barmoji adds a quick access Emoji bar to your iPhone’s native keyboard interface. With it, you can more easily type Emojis when you’re composing messages or emails. The tweak also works in other apps due to its integration into the native keyboard, such as social media and text composition apps, among others.

Display Touch provides visual feedback as you touch your iPhone’s display

Your iPhone’s touch screen is designed to accept user input wherever you tap or drag your finger(s). But don’t you think it would be neat if you could see where your finger was interacting with your iPhone’s display in real time?

The idea of such a thing may seem redundant, but it can be useful if you’re recording your iPhone’s display and you want to emphasize where you tap or swipe. For those looking to add this feature to their pwned iOS device, a newly released jailbreak tweak called Display Touch by iOS developer pxcex should be the next thing on their list of things to try out.

Give iMessage bubbles a custom color gradient with this tweak

One of the best parts of owning a pwned iPhone is having the ability to colorize the native iOS interface however you want, as doing so can help make your handset stand out from the crowd of monotony.

That said, if you’re interested in adding a fresh coat of paint to the native Messages app, then you might take a liking to a new and free jailbreak tweak called iMessageGradients by iOS developer Cole Cabral.
