MusicLyricsShare is a newly released and free jailbreak tweak by iOS developer ETHN that streamlines this process in Apple’s Music app by letting users tap and hold on the individual lyric blocks that appear when a song streams via Apple Music.

Anthony Bouchard ∙ March 26, 2021

Whether you’re new to jailbreaking or merely looking for a quick and easy way to personalize various parts of the iOS user interface without investing money, WaveAway is a newly released and free jailbreak tweak by iOS developer Sangster that might be of interest.

WaveAway is best described as a free all-in-one jailbreak tweak that provides a myriad of different options for customizing your handset’s mobile operating system. It’s not quite as in-depth as many of the paid all-in-ones out there, such as Springtomize, but as a free release, it’s definitely worth checking out.

This tweak enables the numeric battery percent in the Status Bar for notched iOS 14 devices

Anthony Bouchard ∙ Updated November 15, 2021

A popular feature that is noticeably missing from notched iPhones that continues to exist on older Home Button-equipped handsets is the Battery Percent display for the Status Bar’s battery level indicator.

For whatever reason, Apple thought it would be a good idea to remove this feature entirely while continuing to harbor assets in the mobile operating system for an upgraded and better looking Battery Percent display on such devices.
