These are the latest jailbreak apps and tweaks available for your iPhone or iPad. We save you time by highlighting only the best tweaks.

Clockator adds haptic feedback to the iPhone’s Clock app

Anthony Bouchard ∙ Updated December 27, 2021

If you’re anything like me, then you like haptic feedback on your iPhone and wish Apple would implement it more broadly across the mobile operating system. While this could certainly happen in the near future as Apple ponders about how it can make iOS better, jailbreakers won’t need to wait thanks to the plethora of readily available jailbreak tweaks that can already bring haptic feedback to miscellaneous interfaces in iOS.

Clockator is a newly released and free extension by iOS developer CydiaGeek that fits this niche subset of add-ons, and as its name suggests, Clockator introduces haptic feedback to Apple’s native Clock app in various ways.

Jailbreak tweaks of the week: CPUTool, Dyadic, LPMPad, SITUM, and more…

Anthony Bouchard ∙ March 29, 2020

If you’re going stir-crazy while coping with the thought of staying home amid Coronavirus-related social distancing efforts, then the good news is you can use your newfound free time to tinker with your jailbroken iPhone or iPad.

In this roundup, we’ll show you all the latest jailbreak tweaks to be released from Monday, March 23rd to Sunday, March, 29th. As usual, we’ll kick things off by discussing our favorite releases first and then wrap things up with an outline of the rest afterward.

LPMPad ports native Low Power Mode to jailbroken iPads & iPod touches

Anthony Bouchard ∙ March 28, 2020

If your iPhone’s battery level ever ventures into the danger zone, then Apple has graciously provided you with a Low Power Mode option that you can toggle in a pinch to take full advantage of every last precious drop of juice you have left. But for whatever reason, this same toggle isn’t available on iPads or iPod touches – what a shame!

While it remains to be seen if Apple will ever bring Low Power Mode to the iPad or iPod touch platforms, the good news is that jailbreakers won’t have to wait. A newly released and free jailbreak tweak dubbed LPMPad by iOS developer iCraze ports Low Power Mode to these devices in such a way that it feels just as native as it would on the iPhone.

LSTweak gives your iPhone a snazzy new Lock screen interface

Anthony Bouchard ∙ March 28, 2020

The Lock screen is the first thing you get to look at every time you pick up your iPhone and begin using it, and with that in mind, it’d be useful if Apple provided some kind of flexibility by way of user-configurable aesthetics and functionality.

While non-jailbroken handsets don’t have much to offer in this department, a newly released jailbreak tweak called LSTweak by iOS developer neoney empowers avid jailbreakers with the ability to have a sleek Lock screen interface like the one depicted above.

Fluide adds music controls to the iOS 13 volume HUD

Anthony Bouchard ∙ March 26, 2020

The iPhone features a market-leading music consumption experience, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be improved. The jailbreak community knows this all too well, and that’s why many jailbreak tweaks focus on iOS’ music-centric interfaces.

A newly released and free jailbreak tweak dubbed Fluide by iOS developer maximehip is just one example of such an augmentation, and as depicted in the screenshot example above, this tweak integrates music controls directly into iOS 13’s native volume HUD interface.

SITUM lets you initiate a search engine query from anywhere in iOS

Anthony Bouchard ∙ March 25, 2020

If you ever find yourself in a situation where you’re reading an article or website and want to know more about whatever it is you’re reading about, then you might feel fired up to launch a web browser and begin a search engine query by way of Google, DuckDuckGo, or another search engine of your choosing. But what if you didn’t need to bother opening another app to do this?

That’s the idea behind a newly released and free jailbreak tweak called SITUM by iOS developers R0wDrunner and MegaDev, and as you might’ve discerned for yourself in the screenshot examples above, this tweak lets you initiate a search engine query from virtually anywhere in iOS via the native Action Menu that appears when you begin highlighting a string of text.

Dyadic combines Control Center and Today widgets into one interface

Anthony Bouchard ∙ March 24, 2020

Two of the most useful on-demand interfaces in all of iOS are Control Center and the Today widget page, and if you’re any bit familiar with how iOS works, then you’d know that these interfaces are entirely separate from one another. But they don’t have to be… at least not anymore.

Enter Dyadic a newly released jailbreak tweak by iOS developer nicho1asdev that combines the two interfaces into one for a slicker user experience. What’s more is the tweak works seamlessly on both iPhones and iPads alike, ensuring a seamless ‘just works’ experience across all your jailbroken iOS devices.

CPUTool lets iOS jailbreakers underclock their CPU and GPU

Anthony Bouchard ∙ Updated March 28, 2022

Apple doesn’t provide much by way of power savings on the iOS platform apart from the Low Power Mode feature and the use of general common sense with regard to reducing battery drain. Fortunately, those looking for more than what Apple seems willing to provide out of the box might be in luck as of this week.

This tweak mirrors your iPhone’s silent mode status to your Apple Watch

Anthony Bouchard ∙ March 23, 2020

Both the Apple Watch and iPhone support silent mode – a feature that mutes all incoming notification sounds to prevent awkward situations in certain predicaments, such as a ringtone going off in the middle of class or disturbing participants during a work conference. Unfortunately, this handy feature doesn’t stay in sync between both devices, necessitating manual input for each.

This is a problem that a newly released jailbreak tweak called WatchMuteMirror by iOS developer Cardboard Face aims to resolve. As you may have inferred already from the tweak’s name, WatchMuteMirror keeps silent mode in sync between your iPhone and your Apple Watch so that the latter doesn’t make a bunch of noise even after you toggle the mute switch on the side of your iPhone.

AirPay is a redesigned Apple Pay interface for jailbroken iPhones

Anthony Bouchard ∙ Updated August 11, 2022

If you use Apple Pay via your jailbroken iPhone frequently, then you’re unquestionably familiar with the prompt that appears when it comes time to authenticate yourself with Face ID or Touch ID. While the native interface doesn’t necessarily look that bad, it’s somewhat unfortunate that Apple didn’t design it to be uniform with other interfaces that appear on the iOS platform, like the AirPods pairing prompt for example.

Those interested in a redesigned Apple Pay interface that has been heavily inspired by iOS’ native AirPods pairing interface are likely to appreciate the user experience that comes along with using a newly released jailbreak tweak dubbed AirPay by iOS developer Dylan West (@iOSthemem0d).

Discern whether you have missed important notifications from your pocket with NotiVibe

Anthony Bouchard ∙ Updated December 27, 2021

Your iPhone probably lights up with push notifications all day long, but only a small fraction of those are likely to be important. Unfortunately, there’s no easy way to discern between important and non-important notifications without looking at your display, and this means that if you’re smack in the middle of something important and can’t look at your handset, you won’t know what you’re missing.

The aforementioned situation doesn’t come up too often, but it may happen more frequently when you’re at work and stuck in meetings all day or when you’re in class and don’t want to make it obvious that you’re checking your iPhone for notifications. For that reason, a newly released and free jailbreak tweak called NotiVibe by iOS developer AnthPak may come in clutch.

Curb privacy paranoia when lending your iPhone to someone else with Spy

Anthony Bouchard ∙ Updated April 6, 2021

When you’re generous enough to loan your iPhone to a friend or family member, or even worse a complete stranger to make a phone call, one thing that probably weighs heavy on your mind is whether that person is invading your privacy by launching apps they shouldn’t be, such as Messages, Notes, or Photos to name a few.

I’ve found myself in this situation quite a few times myself, and that’s why I’m particularly excited about a newly released jailbreak tweak dubbed Spy by iOS developer Elias. This tweak works to your advantage in situations like the one above by logging the apps that a user opens with the mere flip of a toggle switch.
