Check out the most comprehensive jailbreaking coverage on the internet, including the latest news, apps, tweaks, and detailed tutorials about everything jailbreak.
You can press firmly on your Home screen’s app icons on any 3D Touch-compatible handset to access handy shortcuts pertaining to that specific app, and while they can be useful at times, it’s equally valid that Apple provides little or no customizability in this department.
If you’re in the market for a way to make your handset’s 3D Touch menus stand out from the rest of the crowd, then you just might come to appreciate a newly-released jailbreak tweak called Baylor by iOS developer dpkg_.
Apple’s latest iPhones, from the iPhone XR to the iPhone 13 lineup, support dual-SIM functionality. Straight out of the box, these handsets can have both a physical SIM-based carrier and an eSIM-based carrier configured on the same device for traveling abroad. But perhaps unsurprisingly, the native implementation of this capability on the iOS platform leaves a lot to be desired.
Here to help with this particularly disgruntling issue is a newly-released jailbreak tweak called eSIM+ by iOS developer iArrays. Just as the name implies, this tweak augments any jailbroken iPhone that supports dual-SIM capabilities, such as those mentioned earlier.
If you have a jailbroken handset at your disposal and you feel like Siri is a bit underpowered out of the box, then you just might come to appreciate a newly-released jailbreak tweak called Assistant+ by iOS developer Zaid Elkurdi.
From what we can gather, this tweak brings a plethora of personalization options to the Siri voice assistant, empowering users to assign custom actions and responses to almost any query they can think of.
iOS’ native incoming call interface can be somewhat bland at first glance, and that’s precisely why iOS developer Anima has released a new jailbreak tweak dubbed Incoming Call LivePhoto (A12 Support).
Just as the name implies, Incoming Call LivePhoto replaces the bland incoming call background with a Live Photo of your choosing, ensuring that you always have something cool to look at when your iPhone starts ringing.
It was only a week ago that security researcher iBSparkes teased the Cydia package manager running on an iPhone with the first developer beta of iOS 13 installed on it, but as it would seem, that was just the tip of the iceberg.
Apple deployed the second developer beta of iOS 13 just yesterday afternoon, and a new teaser shared just this morning by security researcher and Yalu jailbreak developer Luca Todesco appears to show a working tfp0 exploit running on it:
If you’re jailbroken by way of Chimera or unc0ver, then you can now take advantage of a jailbreak tweak dubbed Sleipnizer for Safari (iOS 9-12) by iOS developer r_plus to augment the usability of your handset’s native Safari web browser.
Fresh out of the box, Sleipnizer for Safari bakes a plethora of new gestures and shortcuts into Safari experience. Among those are:
Love it or hate it, most of Apple’s modern-day mobile devices come standard with a top-of-display notch that houses the TrueDepth camera system used by Face ID for biometric authentication and for selfie images. Now that the notch has become the norm, the best thing you can do is embrace it; but why not go a step further and expand it?
NotchControl is a new free jailbreak tweak by iOS developer PeterDev that builds upon the notch’s native aesthetics and functionality. With it, you can incorporate new controls and information displays into the notch, such as things that pertain to music, time, or weather.
Lots of people pack their iOS handsets’ Calendar app with upcoming plans and events, and we find it particularly alarming that Apple still doesn’t persistently display those plans and events on the Lock screen to prevent users from forgetting about them as the week goes on.
Given the circumstances, we’re particularly excited to show you a newly-released and free jailbreak tweak called Shenmue by iOS developer maximehip, which resolves the aforementioned problem by displaying a specialized event widget on the Lock screen with a persistent reminder regarding what’s still to come.
If you have a jailbroken handset in your possession and you’re paranoid that someone might know your passcode and that they might be logging into your device when you aren’t looking, then you just might come to appreciate a newly-released and free jailbreak tweak dubbed LastUnlock by iOS developer Smokin1337.
As indicated by the screenshot example above, LastUnlock records the most recent date and time that your handset was unlocked (whether it was by you or someone else) and displays it on the Lock screen where the ‘press Home to unlock’ or ‘swipe up to unlock’ text would typically appear.
The jailbreak tweak release schedule has slowed down a little bit since the WWDC 2019 Keynote, presumably because developers are absorbing all the new features to come and pondering about how these ideas can be used to improve existing versions of iOS. That said, we expect that releases will pick up at their normal pace again soon enough.
In this roundup, we’ll discuss all of this past week’s jailbreak tweak releases in one convenient place. As usual, we’ll kick things off by discussing our favorite releases in detail and then we’ll outline the rest of them afterward.
As you use iOS, you’ll become accustomed to seeing activity indicators in many of your apps. The activity indicator is denoted by a spinning wheel, such as what you might see when certain apps load or begin communicating with the internet.
iOS’ activity monitors are typically monotonous, serving no other purpose besides letting you know that an app is doing something; but that doesn’t mean they need to be boring. A newly-released and free jailbreak tweak dubbed Spoke by iOS developer Unicorn808 lets you colorize these activity monitors.
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve likely heard about Apple’s upcoming iOS 13 for iPhone and iPod touch (iPad gets its own new operating system dubbed iPadOS), which implements native dark mode and a plethora of other jaw-dropping features that users have been requesting from Apple for quite some time. On the other hand, the oldest handsets it supports out of the box are the iPhone SE, 6s, and 6s Plus.
In a seemingly unbelievable turn of events, however, an Apple device tinkerer with the Twitter handle @NighttigerFTW has purportedly managed to get the first iOS 13 beta running on an iPhone 6 with minimal tweaking. The full details below:
