I’ve always had a soft spot for jailbreak tweaks that bring subtle haptic feedback to various parts of my iPhone. That said, anyone who might be in the same boat should consider a new free release called TapticSpotify by iOS developer Chloee.
As you might have already inferred from the tweak’s name, TapticSpotify brings Taptic Engine-driven haptic feedback to the music controls found in the Now Playing section of the official Spotify app.
Pwn20wnd dropped the first pre-release of unc0ver v2.0.2 at the end of last week with significant improvements to revoke prevention, jailbreak speed enhancements, and bug fixes. After a couple of updated bundled resources were released over the weekend, it now seems that this particular version is ready for the masses.
We first learned about the unc0ver v2.0.2 public release in a Tweet shared by Pwn20wnd Sunday morning:
With Pwn20wnd actively updating the unc0ver jailbreak tool again this week, it’s clear that the community’s needs are not being ignored. That said, jailbreak tweak developers have launched a bevy of captivating releases this week, and we’re about to share those with you.
This roundup will encompass all the jailbreak tweaks we've shown you this week, starting Monday, December 3rd to Sunday, December 9th.
If you’re using Pwn20wnd’s unc0ver jailbreak on your iOS 11 handset, then it would be in your best interest to launch Cydia and refresh your sources at your earliest convenience.
As it would seem, the Unc0ver Jailbreak Resources package by iOS developer Sam Binger has been updated to version 0.11 on Friday with a critical bug fix. Pwn20wnd announced the update on Twitter Friday afternoon:
Maybe you cannot answer that important phone call because you’re in a meeting, have an appointment, or are cutting through traffic. Whatever your excuse, the iPhone and iPad enable you to respond with one of the built-in canned messages you can customize to your liking by following this guide.
It was only a few days ago that we learned about a sandbox escape PoC for iOS 12.0-12.0.1, and while it was just a proof of concept, there’s always the potential that a talented hacker could make use of it for future endeavors; perhaps even jailbreak development.
Fortunately, that’s not the only iOS 12-centric vulnerability floating around in the wild these days. As it would seem, a Safari-based exploit targeting iOS 12.1 and below (and macOS 10.14.1 and below) was also released this week by iOS tinkerer Linus Henze.
If you’re ready to move away from physical notes and index cards for your presentations or videos, then it’s probably time for a teleprompter app. With a convenient app, you can always have your notes with you, adjust the settings to fit your needs, and never lose your notes for those repeat presentations.
To lend you a hand in finding the tool that works for you, we’ve created this roundup of the best teleprompter apps for iPhone and iPad.
Hacker Pwn20wnd began the pre-release train at the end of November with unc0ver v2.0.0, but public testing quickly died down after a few iterations helped squash bugs. Consequently, unc0ver v2.0.1 was released mere days ago to bring the tool out of its ‘pre-release’ stages.
As of Thursday, however, Pwn20wnd launched another unc0ver pre-release for public testing; this time with the version number 2.0.2. Pwn20wnd made an official announcement about the new pre-release this afternoon via his Twitter account:
Heart Analyzer, an iPhone and Apple Watch app which gives you a better understanding of your heart rate rhythm, has pushed an extensive update on App Store with support for displaying electrocardiogram (ECG) information captured by Apple Watch Series 4.
If you’ve got a stack of old, deactivated iPhones laying around without SIM cards like I do, then you’ve probably become very familiar with iOS’ inherently annoying ‘No SIM’ alerts. Not only does iOS display “No SIM” in the Status Bar, but it feels the need to display Lock screen banners and pop-up alerts to remind you of the obvious not just twice, but three times in a row.
As a jailbreak enthusiast and jailbreak tweak reviewer, I use deactivated and SIM-less iPhones all the time, and I’ve come to loathe these No SIM alerts. Fortunately, a jailbreak tweak called NoSimAlert by iOS developer SparkDev can help tremendously in this department.
With Apple unveiling its long-awaited clear case for the iPhone XR, we thought it'd be a good time to do a roundup of alternatives. Below we've listed the best clear cases for iPhone XR, iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max.
Software giant Microsoft, which today pushed a major design update to its mobile Outlook app for iPhone and iPad, has officially confirmed that it's working on a darkened app interface.
