Unc0ver v3.0.0 beta 49 released to fix all known bugs with the iOS 11.0-12.1.2 jailbreak to date

Hacker and unc0ver lead developer Pwn20wnd dropped a significant update for his jailbreak tool on Saturday with an extensive list of changes that purportedly “fixes all known stability issues” on jailbroken installations of iOS 11.0-12.1.2.

Pwn20wnd announced the updated version of the jailbreak tool, dubbed unc0ver v3.0.0 beta 49, via Twitter earlier in the day:

Sleeper augments your iPhone’s native alarm interface with much-needed features

The alarm feature found in your iPhone’s native Clock app is particularly useful when you need to wake up at a specific time every morning, but it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to say that Apple could make iOS’ alarm interface a bit more intuitive.

iOS developer Joshua Seltzer recognized some of the inadequacies that are present in the iPhone’s native alarm interface, and to help combat those shortcomings, has just released a new jailbreak tweak called Sleeper in Cydia.

Maple brings the AirPower charging interface to your jailbroken iPhone

Apple may have officially canceled its AirPower concept due to manufacturing difficulties, but that doesn’t mean that jailbreakers can’t enjoy an AirPower-like experience when charging their multitude of Apple devices.

iOS developer LaughingQuoll has released Maple, a new jailbreak tweak that displays all actively-charging devices connected to your handset as individual AirPower-style banners on the Lock screen.

Easily customize the style of your texts and more with Textyle

While perusing the Changes tab in Cydia this week, I happened upon a particularly interesting new jailbreak tweak called Textyle by iOS developer Deniz Basegmez. Upon closer inspection, it looks like something that large sum of jailbreakers might want to try for themselves.

As shown in the screenshot example above, Textyle integrates with iOS’ native Action Menu interface, which materializes after selecting any string of text. When it appears, you can modify the selected text’s aesthetics with different types of Unicode-based fonts and styles.

Roxanne lets you customize your jailbroken handset’s system sounds

Unless you live in silent mode all day, you should already know that your iPhone makes all sorts of different sounds as you perform certain actions like unlocking the device and typing on your keyboard. But don’t you ever wish you could customize those sounds to your liking?

With a new free jailbreak tweak called Roxanne by iOS developer iKilledAppl3, you can. This tweak brings a slew of options to the table for customizing the sounds of locking, unlocking, entering your passcode, typing, and opening/closing Home screen folders.
