It was only a couple of weeks ago that we showed you a work-in-progress jailbreak tweak called Witcher by iOS developer MatoiDev that aimed to replace the native App Switcher’s dull user experience with a more effective and exciting-to-use multitasking interface that utilizes a customizable carousel-like interface.
