Honey brings the Apple Watch’s Home screen experience to your iPhone
If you own an iPhone and an Apple Watch, then you know that each device’s Home screen functions in a different way. iOS' Home screen is optimized for a larger display, while watchOS' is optimized for a smaller display; but if you have a soft spot for how the Apple Watch’s Home screen works and fancy the same experience on your iPhone, then today's your lucky day because you'll no longer need to settle.
Enter Honey, a newly-released jailbreak tweak by iOS developer Blake Boxberger that ports the Apple Watch’s Home screen experience to iOS devices. As you’ll notice in the screenshot examples above, Honey can be configured to work in several different ways and lets you experience what you love about your Apple Watch right on your iPhone or iPad.
Pwn20wnd officially launches unc0ver v3.3.0 to the public without the ‘beta’ designation
It wasn’t long after @NedWilliamson released his Sock Puppet exploit that Pwn20wnd and the Electra Team began playing ‘tag you’re it’ with continuous jailbreak tool updates to support the latest possible firmware version(s), and as it would seem, those updates may finally be starting to plateau.
In a Tweet shared just a few minutes ago, Pwn20wnd announced the official public release of unc0ver v3.0.0, which officially brings it out of beta testing:
Chimera updated with support for some iOS 12.3 betas as ChimeraTV gets support for tvOS 12.2
It appears to be a big day for the Electra Team. Just this morning, the iOS 12-centric Chimera jailbreak received an update to version 1.2.3 with support for certain builds of the iOS 12.3 beta, and in addition to that, the tvOS-centric ChimeraTV jailbreak was updated to version 1.2.2 with support for tvOS 12.2 on the Apple TV 4K.
The Electra team shared both announcements this morning via Twitter, linking to the newly-updated jailbreak tools on the Chimera website in the process:

If you have a jailbroken handset in your possession and you're wondering how you can augment its features and functionality, then you've come to the right place.
In this roundup, we'll recap all the newest jailbreak tweak releases from Monday, July 8th to Sunday, July 14th. As usual, we'll kick things off by discussing our favorite releases first, and we'll outline the rest afterward.
Unc0ver v3.3.0 beta 7 released to fix more loose ends
Pwn20wnd has been hard at work over the past several days in implementing @NedWilliamson’s new iOS 12.1.3-12.2-centric Sock Puppet exploit into the unc0ver jailbreak. Perhaps unsurprisingly, there’ve been a lot of new updates to the unc0ver jailbreak, with most of those updates involving the tying up of loose ends in regards to the new exploit.
While Pwn20wnd updated the unc0ver jailbreak just this morning to version 3.3.0 beta 6, it now seems that the hacker has updated unc0ver once more, this time to version 3.3.0 beta 7. According to the announcement Tweet, this update resolves several miscellaneous bugs reported by users:
Pwn20wnd drops unc0ver v3.3.0 beta 6 with important bug fixes
Pwn20wnd released another update for the unc0ver jailbreak tool Saturday morning with several more important bug fixes. As of now, the latest version of the unc0ver jailbreak tool is now v3.3.0 beta 6.
Pwn20wnd announced the latest update via Twitter within the past hour, linking to its source page on GitHub in the process:
Chimera updated to v1.2.2 to fix the voucher_swap exploit on A12(X) devices
It was a busy day for the Electra Team and Pwn20wnd alike, but just when we thought that the jailbreak developers were winding down to take a breather for the night, the Electra Team emerged with yet another spontaneous update for the Chimera jailbreak. The latest version of Chimera is now v1.2.2.
The Electra Team announced the new Chimera update on Twitter just this evening, and they went on to explain that it addresses a problem where the tried and true voucher_swap exploit wouldn’t work when attempting to jailbreak A12(X) devices running iOS 12.0-12.1.2 with Chimera v1.2.1:
Chimera updated to v1.2.1 to fix issues with the Sock Puppet exploit on iOS 12.2
The Electra Team made good on its promise to release an updated Chimera jailbreak with support for the new iOS 12.1.3-12.2-centric Sock Puppet exploit by @NedWilliamson, but as you might’ve seen from the slurry of jailbreak tool updates this afternoon, the exploit had bugs that still needed fixing on certain handsets.
Shortly after Pwn20wnd released a revised version of the unc0ver v3.3.0 beta with fixes for all known issues pertaining to the Sock Puppet exploit, the Electra Team released Chimera v1.2.1 to do the same on their platform. The release was announced via Twitter this afternoon:
Newest unc0ver beta resolves all known issues with the new Sock Puppet exploit
Pwn20wnd released another update for unc0ver on Friday, bringing the tool up to version 3.3.0 beta 5. This update resolves an instability issue that was introduced in the now-redacted beta 4 release and implements additional bug fixes.
Pwn20wnd announced the release of this update via Twitter this afternoon:
Pwn20wnd drops unc0ver v3.3.0 beta 4 with Sock Puppet-centric reliability improvements (Update: Pulled)
Pwn20wnd just got done updating the unc0ver jailbreak tool to version 3.3.0 beta 3 this morning, and in an unforeseen turn of events, he has just updated unc0ver again this afternoon to beta 4 with an important reliability fix involving the Sock Puppet exploit for iOS 12.2.
Pwn20wnd announced the updated version of unc0ver just a few moments ago via Twitter:
Electra Team updates Chimera to v1.2.0 with support for iOS 12.1.3-12.2
Following yesterday’s Sock Puppet exploit release by @NedWilliamson, jailbreak developers such as Pwn20wnd and the Electra Team have been scrambling to implement support into the unc0ver and Chimera jailbreaks.
While the unc0ver jailbreak has supported Sock Puppet since yesterday afternoon, the Electra Team said that it was internally testing iOS 12.2 support for Chimera and that a release was imminent. Despite having no stern ETA at the time, the Electra Team officially released Chimera v1.2.0 just this morning with support for iOS versions 12.1.3-12.2.
