For the fastest way to loan money to a friend or pay them back after borrowing some yourself, you can use Apple Cash, formerly named Apple Pay Cash. Once you set it up, you can send money to your contacts or request money from them via the Messages app. The service has been around for a while, but there are still many who haven’t taken it for a spin yet.
If you fall into this category, this tutorial shows you how to set up and send money with Apple Cash.
A native dark mode experience is one of the most sought-after features that Apple will include in its upcoming iOS 13 and iPadOS software updates poised to release this Fall, but in addition to that, we’re also particularly fond of the long-overdue volume HUD upgrade that will also come standard with these updates.
If you’re jailbroken and unable to update to iOS 13 or iPadOS when these software updates launch later this year, then you might want to try a newly-released and free jailbreak tweak called 13HUD by iOS developer Muirey03. With it, you can experience the iOS 13-style volume HUD on pwned iOS 11 and 12 devices.
The Electra Team released an updated version of the iOS 12-centric Chimera jailbreak tool on Tuesday, not long after the Sileo Team released an updated version of the Sileo package manager. Chimera v1.0.9 is now the latest version of the jailbreak tool available.
The Electra Team announced the new version of Chimera early this morning, just a few hours after the new version of Sileo was unveiled:
The Sileo Team released an updated version of Sileo on Tuesday, bringing the Chimera and Electra-centric package manager up to version 1.1.2.
The Sileo Team announced the update early this morning via Twitter, adding that it would include some particularly notable upgrades over the previous version:
If you’re an avid jailbreaker, then you’re likely familiar with the Filza file manager, which allows users to access their handset’s root filesystem and add, change, or delete existing files.
Filza comes with a lot of features, including a plain text file viewer, but with a newly-released and free jailbreak tweak dubbed FilzaPlus by iOS developer Skitty, you can add a full-blown code editor with syntax highlighting to that list.
iOS 13 and iPadOS have changed how you get to your accessibility settings.
The Siri live radio feature that was announced during the June 3 WWDC 2019 keynote is now being quietly rolled out across HomePod, iPhone and iPad ahead of iOS 13's launch this fall.
iOS’ Spotlight search function is severely underpowered, and with just a bit more oomph, it could be a significantly more powerful tool for both casual and power users alike.
It remains to be seen whether Apple will ever expand upon Spotlight’s seemingly limited search functionalities in upcoming iterations of iOS or not, but in any case, jailbreakers won’t need to wait around for that to happen. With a newly-released and free jailbreak tweak called LuxSit by iOS developer LacertosusDeus, you can enjoy an upgraded Spotlight search experience today.
Some people use iOS’ Dictation feature more than others, but if you find yourself on the opposite side of the spectrum and not using it as much as you’d initially anticipated, then you just might benefit from a newly-released jailbreak tweak called EasyKeyboardX by iOS developer Soh Satoh.
EasyKeyboardX essentially replaces the Dictation key on the iOS keyboard with a configurable shortcut key instead. With it, you can either use the button to switch between your enabled keyboards more quickly, or you can enter a specific text string that you’d like to be able to paste into any text field in a jiffy.
Now that the WWDC 2019-centric iOS 13 excitement has come and gone, the jailbreak community is back to manufacturing jailbreak tweaks to improve the iOS experience on older versions of iOS.
It can be challenging to keep track of everything in the midst of your busy life, and so this roundup serves to talk about all the latest jailbreak tweaks that were released in the past week. As usual, we’ll kick things off by discussing our favorites and then outline the rest afterward.
Your iPhone’s native timer feature includes a function to play music from your library until the timer ends right out of the box, and this is particularly useful for falling asleep to your favorite music. But a newly-released jailbreak tweak called Sleepizy by iOS developer AnthoPak can make falling asleep to your favorite music more accessible than ever.
In a nutshell, Sleepizy lets you set a timer to stop your music directly from the Control Center interface, and it plays nicely with any music-playing application, be it Apple Music, SoundCloud, Spotify, YouTube, or something else.
The latest jailbreakable version of iOS at the time of this writing is iOS 12.1.2, but that could change in the very future.
iOS hobbyist @NedWilliamson Tweeted a teaser Friday afternoon of what appears to be a successful tfp0 exploit for iOS 12.2 on an iPhone 6s Plus, a feat that was purportedly made possible after working closely with long-respected security researcher Brandon Azad:
