Arise lets jailbreakers customize and automate the Lock Screen

The iPhone’s Lock Screen is a straightforward interface that acts as a gateway between the user and the Home Screen or last-used interface. While it does its job, many would likely agree that it could do with improvements — some major and some minor.

Sam Bingner teases Cydia on iOS 14

Apple officially unveiled iOS and iPadOS 14 for the first time on Monday as a part of its WWDC 2020 Keynote, and just this morning, checkra1n team co-developer Dany Lisiansky teased a screenshot of the checkra1n jailbreak working on an iPhone running iOS 14. If the words “that was fast” uttered from your mouth upon seeing this, then you’re not alone.

Lisiansky admitted that there was still a lot more work that needed to be completed before checkra1n could be deemed iOS 14-compatible, but as you might come to expect, things are progressing rather quickly thanks to the unique talent encompassed within the checkra1n team.

Jailbreakers got their own keynote presentation this week in the form of WWTC 2020

A lot of the focus this past week has been on Apple’s WWDC 2020 keynote in which the Cupertino-based company unveiled the latest and greatest operating systems for its line of devices including iPhones and iPads, Apple Watches, Apple TVs, and Macs, among other things. But one of the things that got overshadowed amid all the excitement was a parallel address centric to the jailbreak community known as WWTC 2020.

WWTC stands for Worldwide Tweaks Conference, and it’s fundamentally a live-streamed presentation akin to Apple’s WWDC in which jailbreak developers take the stage to discuss some of their creations rather than Apple’s executive staff taking the stage to discuss the company’s latest and upcoming software.

Mavalry brings all-in-one iOS customization to jailbroken devices without the price tag

It’s not uncommon for jailbreakers to flock to all-in-one jailbreak tweaks such as Springtomize when they want to customize more than one aspect of iOS without installing a full library of add-ons and extensions to do so. On the other hand, not everyone wants to shell out money for such jailbreak tweaks either.

If you’re one of the aforementioned jailbreakers that adores the idea of all-in-one customization without spending any money, then you’re probably going to want to turn your attention to a newly released and free jailbreak tweak dubbed Mavalry by iOS developer ajaidan0.
