Jailbreak tweaks of the week: AOD, Carabiner, SwitchShades, and more
It’s a great time to be an active participant in the jailbreak community – not only because you can jailbreak iOS 12.4, Apple’s latest non-beta public mobile operating system, but also because A12(X) support with Cydia is just around the corner.
That said, if you’re jailbroken and you’re looking for ways to trick out your handset, then you’ll definitely want to check out this roundup. Below, we’ll discuss our favorite jailbreak tweak releases this weak and then outline the rest afterward.
Sileo v1.3.6 beta 7 now available for testing, makes repo refreshes up to 3x faster
It was only a few days ago that the Sileo Team first made Sileo Beta v1.3.6 available to the general public for testing purposes, but as you might come to expect, that was only the start of things.
A newer Sileo beta, launched Saturday evening as v1.3.6 beta 7, was announced just a few minutes ago via the official Sileo Team Twitter account:
Retro review: Shadowgun
I remember Shadowgun as one of the first games on the iPhone that used 3D models. For me, it was ground-breaking at the time and it made me think of the possibilities for mobile gaming in the future. It was one of my favorite games back in the day, and I wasn't the only one. When the game was released in 2011, it got so many positive reviews it was featured in the App Store Essentials Hall of Fame.
Currently, the game has created its own universe, with sequels like Shadowgun Deadzone, Shadowgun Legends and an upcoming game titled Shadowgun War Games.
Shadowgun was great back then, but is it great now? Should you spend $4.99 for it, or you're better off with the more recent, free-to-play sequel? That's what we'll cover in today's retro review.
Carabiner gives your iPhone’s Home screen a more unified user experience
Apart from a few refreshed application icons and a nice new wallpaper here and there, Apple hasn’t done much to improve the Home screen experience since the original iPhone. With that in mind, it should come as no surprise to anyone that it’s a point of interest when it comes to customization on jailbroken handsets.
One such example is a brand-new jailbreak tweak release dubbed Carabiner by iOS developer LaughingQuoll. As shown in the screenshot example above, Carabiner crams several interfaces into the Home screen, providing a gorgeous all-in-one experience that provides more information at a glance.
Add new features to your App Switcher with XSwitcher
If you’re in search of a way to make your jailbroken iPhone’s App Switcher more useful, then you may want to turn your attention to the likes of a new and free jailbreak tweak dubbed XSwitcher by iOS developer CUNSTUCK.
As shown in the screenshot example above, XSwitcher lets you access various useful shortcuts in the App Switcher by just swiping down on any of your available application preview cards in the App Switcher interface.
Skype for iPhone, iPad and Mac gains message drafts, split screen, bookmarking & more

What’s on my iPad: Harris’s favorite apps
If you've enjoyed watching our hands-on walkthroughs, reviews, tutorials and other useful videos that are available on our YouTube channel, you're probably familiar with our video guy Harris Craycraft who has been extensively using his eleven-inch iPad Pro, Apple Smart Keyboard Folio and Apple Pencil combo for college, work, fun and everything in between.
2dock doubles the real estate of your jailbroken iPhone’s Dock
The Dock on any stock iPhone’s Home screen is limited to just four application icons, but with a newly released jailbreak tweak dubbed 2dock by iOS developer Nepeta, you can effortlessly double the app real estate for any iPhone’s Dock.
As you might’ve noticed from the screenshot example above, 2dock doesn’t make the Dock scrollable, nor does it push all the app icons together and cause crowding. Instead, it transforms the Dock we all know and love by turning it into a dual-row interface.
This tweak gives your Home screen folders a 2×2 grid layout
Home screen folders on an iPhone can hold up to nine apps per page at a time, but in certain cases involving extreme Home screen-centric UI customization often necessitate delicate icon balance, and the native look and feel can sometimes appear unsightly or asymmetrical.
If you’d appreciate a nicer-looking folder icon on your Home screen, then chances are that you might take an interest in a newly released and free jailbreak tweak called 2x2 by iOS developer Nepeta.
Which is the best iPad for you?
The iPad is one of the most versatile devices. You can use it to study, to get some work done or to binge-watch The Boys. It's a great tool, no matter how you use it. Using your iPad is easy, the hard part is choosing one. It's 2019 and we have 4 iPad models to choose from.
But this brings the question: which iPad is the best for you? Well, the answer really depends on what you're going to use it for. Let's face it, you don't really need an iPad Pro with 1 TB of storage if you're just going to watch Netflix and check Twitter.
So this brings us to today's topic: choosing the best iPad for you. Hopefully, after this, you'll know which one to buy. Maybe it's not the one you wanted, but it may just be the one you needed.
