These are the latest jailbreak apps and tweaks available for your iPhone or iPad. We save you time by highlighting only the best tweaks.
This week, approximately 20 new tweak releases landed on Cydia. They range from basic releases like SongCount, which adds your total amount of songs to the Music app, to the more complex; Browsix lets you access the web from anywhere using a floating web browser mechanism.
All in all, there are many new tweaks this week that you may find interesting, and the majority of them are free. Check out the full list and see what you may have missed.
One of the big concerns about iOS 9 is that Apple is rumored to have made jailbreaking a lot more difficult with its upcoming OS update. While the verdict is still out on "Rootless" and what impact it may or may not have on jailbreaking in general, it's time to start thinking outside of the box.
Two developers have done just that. Majd Alfhaily and Kevin Ko, better known around jailbreak circles as @freemanrepo and @uhelios, have created something pretty special. It's called Extensify, and it's a tweak store that allows you to modify and add new features to App Store apps without needing to jailbreak.
When Alfhaily first approached me with word of this, I have to admit that I was a bit skeptical. Tweaks without a jailbreak? Huh? But then I actually tried Extensify and saw that it was legit.
Read my hands-on walkthrough of the exciting new app, and be sure to watch our video breakdown inside as well.
Now that we know for sure that iOS 8.4.1 kills the exploits used in the most recent jailbreaks, it's time to sit back and reevaluate our current jailbreak situation.
What should you do? In this post, I'll evaluate some of the options and steps that you can take to ensure a long and happy jailbreak future.
We were hopeful, but as suspected, Apple was just a little late in getting the security details about the iOS 8.4.1 release out to the public. As it turns out, iOS 8.4.1 does indeed patch the TaiG jailbreak, as rumored for the last month. Needless to say, you should stay away from iOS 8.4.1 if you're at all interested in jailbreaking your iPhone or iPad.

DarkCC is a newly released jailbreak tweak that tints Control Center with a dark tint. It definitely serves to change up the look of Control Center, lending it a stealth-like appearance.
If you're looking to add some flair to Control Center, then DarkCC is a tweak that's definitely worth trying. Check out the details in this post.
TypeStatus 2 has entered into a live beta, and is now available to download for anyone who wishes to test it.
TypeStatus is the tweak that allows you to see a when someone is in the midst of typing a response to you on iMessage, or when someone has read one of your iMessages. The tweak places a handy overlay or icon in the status bar to indicate when either action has taken place.
After a period of private beta testing, Hashbang Productions has opened up the tweak to the public. Want to take it for a spin? Check out the repo details and additional information inside this post.
I know I've caught a lot of flack in the past for comparing other tweaks to Auxo. Some people think that I'm biased when it comes to Auxo and its creators, but as I've said in the past, I just like to call a spade a spade.
If you get offended by the mere mention of Auxo, then you may want to jump right into the article, and skip the next sentence.
Seng is a tweak that's heavily inspired by Auxo. There I said it. There's simply no denying that fact.
But that doesn't mean it's not a great tweak. Auxo 3 isn't even updated for iOS 8.4, so your options are limited if you enjoy its functionality. Developer Charlie Hewitt saw this as an opportunity, and has stepped in to offer Seng—a tweak that pays homage to the Auxo series, but finds enough solid footing to stand on its own two feet. Watch our in-depth video walkthrough for all of the details.

Another week brings another batch of solid Cydia releases. The headlining tweak from the past week is without a doubt Lock+, the WYSIWYG theme creator with a web-based interface. If you've been hesitant on messing with themes in the past, then you should give Lock+ a serious look; it makes theme creation simple and easy.
Other interesting tweaks from the past week are Epicentre, which adds a redesigned passcode interface with slick animations. There's also Picture Passcode, which lets you create custom security based on photos.
Check out our full list of the past week's jailbreak tweaks in this post. Of the nearly two-dozen tweak releases mentioned, you're bound to find one or two tweaks that will catch your interest.
Multify—one of the most impressive multitasking jailbreak tweaks that we've seen thus far—is now available for jailbreakers running iOS 8.3 and iOS 8.4. Up until now, the tweak wasn't compatible with the latest jailbroken firmware, but that has now been remedied.
We reviewed the original version of Multify back in March, and were super-impressed by what it brought to the table. Now, jailbreakers who perhaps haven't had a chance to take the tweak for a spin get to do so.
Episode 119: A talk about the awesome new upcoming jailbreak tweak called Multiplexer, the tweaks of the week, TaiG for Mac finally arrives, and a new tweak lets you have App Store-inspired reviews on Cydia.
