Your Home screen is literally teeming with tiny images designed to depict the applications they represent, but wouldn’t it be nice if these icons were more than just still images?

Kill all App Switcher apps in one fell swoop with KillX Pro

If you’re the type of person that likes to kill all the apps in your App Switcher when you’re finishing using your iPhone, then chances are you’ll come to appreciate a newly released jailbreak tweak dubbed KillX Pro by iOS developer cemck.

Like the name implies, KillX Pro lets users kill every app from their App Switcher in one fell swoop without having to swipe on each app preview card individually to accomplish the same effect. Instead, as shown in the screenshot examples above, KillX Pro adds a single button to the bottom of your App Switcher to do this with just a tap.

Access your favorite apps from anywhere with AppShortcut

Some people are more anal than others in terms of keeping their Home screens neat and tidy, but those who install too many apps to keep track of can probably benefit from a jailbreak tweak dubbed AppShortcut by iOS developer db89.

As shown in the screenshot examples above, AppShortcut is precisely what you’d expect it to be: an app launcher that provides faster access to some of your favorite applications. The interface appears everywhere in iOS and can be collapsed or expanded depending on your needs at any particular time. Additionally, AppShortcut supports both dark and light UI modes.
