These are the latest jailbreak apps and tweaks available for your iPhone or iPad. We save you time by highlighting only the best tweaks.
Looking to add some novelty to your jailbroken iPhone or iPad? If so, then you may want to turn your attention to a newly released jailbreak tweak dubbed Zinnia by iOS developer Aspen.
Zinnia complements various elements of the Lock Screen on your iPhone or iPad with neon effects. Said effects will be applied to things like the Lock Screen’s clock and the newly-added unlock button, the latter of which replaces the native Home Bar.
The keyboard is an integral part of the iPhone’s operating system that users will interface with just about every day. It does everything it’s supposed to do right out of the box, yet Apple doesn’t offer much by way of personalization. That’s just one of many reasons why the keyboard is one of the most popular things to customize upon jailbreaking.
One of the latest jailbreak tweaks to lend a hand in this department is a paid release called ProKeys by iOS developer Justin Proulx, which features eye-catching aesthetics like RGB coloring and animations, along with haptic feedback, among other things.
Apple did something right when they made it possible for users to use a Haptic Touch/3D Touch gesture on individual Home Screen app icons to reveal hidden menus.
Following the launch of checkra1n version 0.12.3, which added official support for A7 and A11 devices running iOS & iPadOS 14.5, Saurik was quick to update Cydia Substrate so that those devices could enjoy reliable tweak injection.
But Cydia Substrate isn’t the only tweak injection method that works on the checkra1n jailbreak. So too does Substitute, and users of this alternative will likely be looking for a similar update. Fortunately for those folks, said update is now available in the form of Substitute version 2.0.11.
The checkra1n jailbreak tool was updated to version 0.12.3 Thursday afternoon with official support for iOS & iPadOS 14.5 on A7-A11-equipped devices.
Worthy of note, checkra1n users are more likely than any other modern jailbreak user to be taking advantage of Cydia Substrate for tweak injection, so it shouldn’t come as much of a surprise that Cydia Substrate received a similar update on the same day.
When perusing through your iPhone’s Photo Library, you’ll find all your previously snapped photographs and recorded videos. One thing I’ve always noticed about it, however, is that Apple doesn’t offer an automatic replay option for videos saved in the Photo Library.
Automatic replay is available for video content on many third-party apps, and so it always seemed funky to me that Apple didn’t at least provide the option to do the same in the iPhone’s native Photo Library. With that in mind, it’s unsurprising to see that the jailbreak community has once again provided a feature Apple seemingly forgot.
Apple began integrating sleep-related health feature into the iPhone in iOS 13 with Bedtime, but it wasn’t until iOS 14 that more meaningful sleep-based features such as Sleep Mode came to fruition.
When Sleep Mode is active, your iPhone mutes incoming notifications with Do Not Disturb to keep you asleep and dissuades you from using your iPhone when you should be sleeping by way of a more convoluted Lock Screen that adds an additional button to tap before you can swipe up to unlock.
After you begin listening to music on your iPhone, iOS automatically kicks the Now Playing widget into high gear by displaying it on the Lock Screen and in Notification Center.
There’s just one problem: it’s rather big any clunky, and such qualities don’t jibe well with an interface that’s also designed to show the user all of their missed notification banners.
Any and all jailbreakers who might be in the market to add a splash of paint to the otherwise boring Settings app user interface should immediately turn their attention to a newly released and free jailbreak tweak called April by iOS developer Luki134.
Not to be confused with the April jailbreak tweak we showed you last year for customizing the Lock Screen, this April jailbreak tweak focuses primarily on allowing the user to customize the look and feel of the Settings app via various configurable parameters.
It’s that time of the week again, and that means we’re coming at you with the latest edition of the Jailbreak Tweaks of the Week.
In this piece, we curate a list of all the latest jailbreak tweaks and jailbreak-centric need in one convenient and easy-to-digest piece. This particular roundup covers the time period spanning Monday, April 19th to Sunday, April 25th.
As you use your iPhone or iPad, especially in a jailbroken state, temporary files will be stored in the file system that take a sometimes discernible bite out of your handset’s storage space. While most users never bat an eye at the fact, many others like to keep this truth in check by proactively deleting unwanted temporary files and app caches to maintain a robust block of free storage space.
DustBuster by iOS developer Plat-Ykor is a new app for jailbroken devices that can help users manage the impact that temporary files have on their handset’s storage. Much like other popular storage-freeing apps such as iCleaner, DustBuster can remove the aforementioned files from your handset with just a tap, allowing you instantly reclaim valuable storage space that you otherwise wouldn’t be afforded to you for other uses.
As a jailbreaker, I like adding a footprint of my own personalization to my iPhones and iPads whenever I get the chance. On the other hand, I don’t like anything too eccentric. More often than not, I prefer subtle customizations that don’t over do it.
Anyone in the same boat as me is likely to appreciate a new and free jailbreak tweak dubbed AdaptiveStatusBar by iOS developer MiRO. Just as the name implies, this tweak adaptively colorizes the Status Bar based on the icon of the app you’re using.
