These are the latest jailbreak apps and tweaks available for your iPhone or iPad. We save you time by highlighting only the best tweaks.
At first glance, it might seem like your iPhone has just one volume control that you can change with the volume buttons at the side of the handset, but there are actually nine different volume controls present on your handset.
It can be challenging to discern which volume control you’re adjusting when you press your device’s volume buttons, and so iOS developer midkin just launched a new jailbreak tweak called SmartVolumeMixer to make life a bit easier in this department.
Starting with last year’s iPhone X, Apple nixed the Home Button from its entire lineup of smartphones and replaced it with the software-based Home Bar. The Home Bar resides at the bottom of your display, quietly waiting for upward swipe gestures for unlocking the handset or closing foregrounded apps.
The Home Bar compliments the iOS experience like bread and butter, and it also empowered Apple to achieve the signature edge-to-edge OLED display that many of us know and love, but it’s not without its quirks. Fortunately, a new free jailbreak tweak called XEdgeProtect by iOS developer smokin1337 addresses some of these issues.
The Lock screen has come a long way in many of the most recent iterations of iOS. Instead of just being a place to tell the time and view your missed notifications, the Lock screen has become a hub for everything that matters, including app-centric widgets that can help you discern important information at a glance.
Depending on how much you utilize these aspects of your iOS device’s Lock screen, a new free jailbreak tweak called Lace 2 by iOS developer Andreas Henriksson can help you take better advantage of it all.
Looking to spice up your iPhone’s Lock screen a bit? If so, then you might take an interest in a new free jailbreak tweak called RomanLockscreenTime by iOS developer Cole Cabral.
As you may have gathered already from the tweak’s name, RomanLockscreenTime replaces the standard numeric time display on your Lock screen with Roman numerals, as shown above.
If you use the Facebook app on your iPhone or iPad, then you probably noticed that the social platform has started injecting advertisements in everything you do, from watching videos to perusing Stories, etc.
Advertisements are a necessary evil because they help drive revenue, but too many in one place tend to become a nuisance for the end user. With that in mind, iOS developer Rishanan created a new jailbreak tweak called FacebookAdBlocker that aims to revitalize your Facebook experience.
Toggle switches have been present in iOS since its conception, and apart from the significant redesign post-iOS 7, these toggle switches have kept mostly the same appearance over the years.
Enter Switches, a new jailbreak tweak by iOS developer c1der that resolves this problem by letting you put a custom spin on your jailbroken handset’s system-wide toggle switches.
Apple’s iOS 12 update brought several changes to the company’s mobile operating system, but perhaps my favorite of those is the new grouped notification feature that keeps your Lock screen and Notification Center interfaces free of unwanted clutter.
While this feature was initially native to iOS 12, those sporting jailbroken iOS 11 devices can now enjoy a similar notification grouping feature with a new free jailbreak tweak called StackXI by iOS developer Ominousness.
If you have a jailbroken handset, either by way of Electra or unc0ver, then you might want to know what you should install on it.
In this roundup, we’ll discuss all the jailbreak tweaks released in Cydia from Monday, November 12th to Sunday, November 18th. As usual, we’ll kick things off by talking about our favorite releases and then outline the rest afterward.
While I enjoy using Twitter, I’ve come to frown upon the bevy of promoted Tweets that litter the News Feed viewing experience. Fortunately, you can now get around this if you have a jailbroken device.
Upon launching the Cydia Store and refreshing your sources, you should notice a new free jailbreak tweak called NoTwitterAds by iOS developer Chloee. This tweak does away with all promoted Tweets in your News Feed, much like the one shown above.
Due to the high volume of dark mode-centric jailbreak tweaks that are launched in the Cydia Store, we seldom cover them here at iDB. But because I use the Google Maps app so much on my daily driver during my commute, a new release dubbed Dark Gmaps by iOS developer FoxfortMobile seemed like a no-brainer.
If you were expecting a barebones tweak that merely colorizes the Google Maps app to look more appealing at night, then we think you’ll be pleasantly surprised by Dark GMaps. After installation, the tweak adds a preference pane to the Settings app where you can experiment with a plethora of creeper comfort features:
The ever-so-popular Mobile Terminal (MTerminal) app for jailbroken devices was updated on Tuesday with official support for iOS 11, a move that’s certain to excite jailbreak power users. The latest version of the app is now 1.4-6.
MTerminal is fundamentally an on-device command-line interface (CLI) that lets jailbreakers run powerful commands, and if you’re a veteran jailbreaker, then the interface shown above should look nostalgically familiar.
The App Store is home to a plethora of third-party alternatives to the official Twitter app; they exist in response to some of the official app’s shortcomings. But if you have a jailbroken iOS device, then you can often tweak the official Twitter app to get precisely what you want out of it.
Enter Twitter Labs, a new free jailbreak tweak by iOS developer Chloee that gives jailbreakers access to a multitude of settings and features that one could only dream of accessing on a stock device.
