How to add ratings to Cydia tweaks

Cydia Ratings is an awesome new beta jailbreak tweak that brings an App Store-inspired ratings interface to all of your favorite Cydia tweaks.

Ever since Cydia debuted, there's never been a real way to go about rating the tweaks housed inside. Users are thus made to either take the plunge on a tweak without knowing how good it is, or wait for a review from iDB. Now, with Cydia Reviews, users will have a legitimate way of reviewing and reading reviews for all of the tweaks available on Cydia.

New KeySwipe jailbreak tweak lets you switch between keyboards with a swipe

 

I don't know about you, but I find it kind of tedious to switch between keyboards on iOS. I find it tedious, because have to tap that little language button, which requires a precise tap on the keyboard.

Instead, wouldn't it be nice if you could just perform a simple swipe gesture to switch between the keyboards that you have configured? A new tweak called KeySwipe lets you do just that.

TaiG 1.1.0 for Mac released to jailbreak iOS 8.4

TaiG has released a new version of its Mac jailbreak tool for iOS 8.4. Version 1.1.0 of TaiG for Mac aims to fix an issue present for users of OS X 10.9. If you've experienced issues with jailbreaking your iPhone using the OS X version of TaiG, then it is recommended that you update to this latest version.

Jailbreakers be like… [video]

Let's face it, as jailbreakers we have a lot of stereotypes created about us. Some are undoubtedly true, and some are perhaps a bit more far-fetched. The fact of the matter is that jailbreaking brings its own type of lingo, thinking, and funny moments.

With this in mind, I came up with 10 jailbreak stereotypes for this tongue-in-cheek video. How many of these jailbreak stereotypes are you guilty of?

Ryan Petrich teases free update to VideoPane

Today, Ryan Petrich teased his upcoming release, VideoPane2—the follow-up to the popular picture-in-picture video tweak for jailbroken iPhones. VideoPane allows you to multitask and watch videos anywhere on iOS.

Considering how much work has gone into VideoPane, and what it allows you to do, it wouldn't be surprising if Petrich decided to charge for the update. However, the update will be free for those of you who purchased VideoPane in the past, regardless of when it was purchased.

How to jailbreak iOS 8.4 on Mac with TaiG 1.0.0

In this video tutorial, I will show you how to jailbreak iOS 8.4 on your Mac using the TaiG tool.

TaiG for Mac released to jailbreak iOS 8.4

If you've yet to jailbreak due to the lack of a proper TaiG tool for OS X, now is your time. You can find the download link for TaiG for Mac inside.

How to use the iPhone’s proximity sensor as an Activator gesture

ProximityActivator is a recently released tweak that adds a new proximity sensor gesture to your list of Activator gestures. This makes it possible to perform certain actions simply by waving your hand in front of your iPhone.

In the video example that follows, I'll show you how I can invoke the App Switcher by waving my hand in front of my iPhone 5's proximity sensor. 

Upcoming Multiplexer jailbreak tweak looks incredible

Multiplexer is an upcoming multitasking jailbreak tweak from Elijah Frederickson and Andrew Abosh, the same developers that brought us the high-regarding multitasking tweak, ReachApp.

Building on the success of ReachApp, Multiplexer is actually six tweaks built into one. In fact, each of Multiplexer's features could probably stand on their own two feet—for example, ReachApp is a part of Multiplexer.

It's still very much a work-in-progress, but Frederickson and Abosh have teased Multiplexer's feature-set over the last week. I've been around jailbreaking for a long time, and this looks like it could possibly be one of the biggest and most ambitious releases that we've seen in quite some time.

Epicentre: a gorgeous new passcode interface for iOS

Finding the stock iOS passcode interface to be a bit boring? If so, then keep your eyes peeled for Epicentre, an upcoming jailbreak tweak that adds a gorgeous new interface to the passcode Lock screen.

Epicenter replaces the stock passcode interface with a beautifully animated setup that looks like it was inspired by a traditional rotary phone. It features a preference panel with several options for customizing the look and security of the passcode entry interface. Watch our full video preview to see how.
