The Home screen is best known for its humble duty of serving your application icons to your fingertips on demand, but one element of it that often get overlooked in Apple’s software redesigns is the page indicator just above the Dock.
If you’re ready to give your Home screen’s page indicator a sexy new makeover, then you just might want to try a newly-released jailbreak tweak called Pagebar by iOS developer CalicoCat.

It was only yesterday that Pwn20wnd released unc0ver version 3.1.0 to the general public as “the biggest update to unc0ver yet,” but as it would seem, a few loose ends were found that needed tying.
Pwn20wnd followed up with two consecutive updates to the unc0ver jailbreak tool on Friday, subtly named version 3.1.1 and version 3.1.2. Each update purportedly incorporates bug fixes to stabilize some of the jailbreak’s app-centric features.

In a routine move by Apple on Thursday, the Cupertino-based tech company stopped signing the iOS 12.2 firmware for its mobile lineup of devices, a move that hinders the iTunes-centric downgrade process to any firmware older than the recently-released iOS 12.3 update.
Apple first released iOS 12.2 nearly two months ago, and iOS 12.3 has been publicly available for a little longer than a week at the time of this writing. Given the circumstances, Apple’s decision to discontinue downgrades to iOS 12.2 isn’t particularly surprising.
As promised, hacker and unc0ver lead developer Pwn20wnd has released a major update for his iOS 11-12-centric jailbreak tool on Thursday. The latest version of unc0ver is now v3.1.0.
Pwn20wnd announced the update just this morning via Twitter, noting that it was the single most substantial update ever released for the unc0ver jailbreak tool:
It’s been approximately one month since hacker and unc0ver lead developer Pwn20wnd released unc0ver v3.0.1 to the general public, and there’ve been no subsequent updates to the jailbreak tool since. But that’s all about to change.
As we reported just last week, Pwn20wnd is planning to release a substantial update for unc0ver with a plethora of bug fixes and stability improvements. At the time, we knew very little about the upcoming update; but Pwn20wnd has been somewhat vocal as of late regarding what we can expect:
Apple found itself in a bit of hot water before the end of 2017, as it was discovered that the company was deliberately throttling CPU performance in an effort to sustain optimal battery life in aging iPhone models. Apple aimed to clarify that move, and has since made improvements to iOS to avoid that fate. But in the United Kingdom Apple will be doing a bit more.
