These are the latest jailbreak apps and tweaks available for your iPhone or iPad. We save you time by highlighting only the best tweaks.
The Sileo Team pushed another update for Sileo on Friday with additional bug fixes and improvements, officially bringing the Chimera and Electra-centric package manager up to version 1.1.3.
The Sileo Team announced the update via Twitter early this morning:
One thing I’ve long wanted from iOS, but still don’t have to this very day, is a fully-integrated Lock screen experience, complete with notifications, weather information, and widgets in addition to the expected date and time indicator.
While the Today page is a compromising feature on Apple’s behalf, it still doesn’t provide that unified experience I’ve wanted for so long. Fortunately, a newly-released jailbreak tweak called Manta by iOS developer Ben Giannis addresses my complaints with the stock iOS Lock screen, and it does so in an incredibly pleasant manner.
If you’re in the market to add a bit of quirkiness to your iOS device’s Home screen, then you might want to look into a new jailbreak tweak called Luminous by iOS developer Sirius24.
As you’ll notice in the screenshot examples above, Luminous gives every one of your Home screen’s app icons a colored underglow. But perhaps more importantly, the tweak is fully-configurable, allowing just about anyone to achieve the look and feel that they’re aiming for.
A native dark mode experience is one of the most sought-after features that Apple will include in its upcoming iOS 13 and iPadOS software updates poised to release this Fall, but in addition to that, we’re also particularly fond of the long-overdue volume HUD upgrade that will also come standard with these updates.
If you’re jailbroken and unable to update to iOS 13 or iPadOS when these software updates launch later this year, then you might want to try a newly-released and free jailbreak tweak called 13HUD by iOS developer Muirey03. With it, you can experience the iOS 13-style volume HUD on pwned iOS 11 and 12 devices.
If you’re an avid jailbreaker, then you’re likely familiar with the Filza file manager, which allows users to access their handset’s root filesystem and add, change, or delete existing files.
Filza comes with a lot of features, including a plain text file viewer, but with a newly-released and free jailbreak tweak dubbed FilzaPlus by iOS developer Skitty, you can add a full-blown code editor with syntax highlighting to that list.
iOS’ Spotlight search function is severely underpowered, and with just a bit more oomph, it could be a significantly more powerful tool for both casual and power users alike.
It remains to be seen whether Apple will ever expand upon Spotlight’s seemingly limited search functionalities in upcoming iterations of iOS or not, but in any case, jailbreakers won’t need to wait around for that to happen. With a newly-released and free jailbreak tweak called LuxSit by iOS developer LacertosusDeus, you can enjoy an upgraded Spotlight search experience today.
Some people use iOS’ Dictation feature more than others, but if you find yourself on the opposite side of the spectrum and not using it as much as you’d initially anticipated, then you just might benefit from a newly-released jailbreak tweak called EasyKeyboardX by iOS developer Soh Satoh.
EasyKeyboardX essentially replaces the Dictation key on the iOS keyboard with a configurable shortcut key instead. With it, you can either use the button to switch between your enabled keyboards more quickly, or you can enter a specific text string that you’d like to be able to paste into any text field in a jiffy.
Now that the WWDC 2019-centric iOS 13 excitement has come and gone, the jailbreak community is back to manufacturing jailbreak tweaks to improve the iOS experience on older versions of iOS.
It can be challenging to keep track of everything in the midst of your busy life, and so this roundup serves to talk about all the latest jailbreak tweaks that were released in the past week. As usual, we’ll kick things off by discussing our favorites and then outline the rest afterward.
Your iPhone’s native timer feature includes a function to play music from your library until the timer ends right out of the box, and this is particularly useful for falling asleep to your favorite music. But a newly-released jailbreak tweak called Sleepizy by iOS developer AnthoPak can make falling asleep to your favorite music more accessible than ever.
In a nutshell, Sleepizy lets you set a timer to stop your music directly from the Control Center interface, and it plays nicely with any music-playing application, be it Apple Music, SoundCloud, Spotify, YouTube, or something else.
The latest jailbreakable version of iOS at the time of this writing is iOS 12.1.2, but that could change in the very future.
iOS hobbyist @NedWilliamson Tweeted a teaser Friday afternoon of what appears to be a successful tfp0 exploit for iOS 12.2 on an iPhone 6s Plus, a feat that was purportedly made possible after working closely with long-respected security researcher Brandon Azad:
There’s no doubt that the iPhone’s native power down screen leaves a lot to be desired, but with the help of a new jailbreak tweak called RePower XII by iOS developer Haifisch, you can change that.
RePower XII supercharges the native power down interface, providing users with several other switches besides powering off. Those include:
The jailbreak community is no stranger to dark mode-centric jailbreak tweaks, but the bulk of them cost money to be downloaded. Given the circumstances, dark mode lovers might be particularly excited to learn about a free release called Dune by iOS developer Skitty.
As you’ll see in the screenshot examples above, Dune can be used to give your mobile operating system a darker aesthetic overall. The tweak is designed to darken various UI elements found throughout the operating system, such as:
