Customize your Phone app’s keypad with this new jailbreak tweak

Anthony Bouchard ∙ April 1, 2019

Unlike some of the earliest cell phones that made it to the public market, the iPhone can do so much more than just make and receive phone calls. With that in mind, the native Phone app is often overlooked in regards to personal customization and features.

To those who feel the same way, a new free jailbreak tweak called NPF by iOS developer Easy-Z brings at least some form of customization to the iPhone’s Phone app. With it, you’ll be able to customize the shape and size of the keypad buttons to give them a new look and feel, as shown above.

These jailbreak tweaks let you record phone calls with the press of a button

Anthony Bouchard ∙ Updated August 5, 2024

Have you ever wanted to record your inbound and outbound phone calls from your iPhone? If so, then you’re not alone; in fact, this is quite possibly one of the most highly-requested features that Apple hasn’t natively implemented in the iPhone’s calling interface.

While a slightly convoluted process exists that may or may not work depending on your carrier, those with jailbroken handsets can make this process a whole lot easier by installing one of two recently-released jailbreak tweaks dubbed Call Recorder X+ (iOS 12) and Super Recorder X+ (iOS 12) by iOS developer hacx.

Anthony Bouchard ∙ Updated September 11, 2022

If you have a jailbroken iPhone, then you should probably add Elias Limneos’ new CallBar XS jailbreak tweak to your wish list.

Just like its predecessor, CallBar XS streamlines the phone-centric functionality of your iPhone by incorporating a less intrusive incoming and outgoing phone call interface. In short, it replaces iOS’ full-screen call interface with one that’s hardly any larger than a standard notification banner, and it does so without sacrificing any functionality.

Depending on how often you take FaceTime or Phone calls on your iPhone, you might find it handy to have your handset automatically accept incoming calls from specific people under specific circumstances.

You can configure your iPhone to answer phone calls automatically if you have iOS 11, but a jailbreak tweak called AutoAnswer X (iOS 11) by iOS developer Elias Limneos provides a better long-term solution with more features and configuration than you could ever dream of receiving in an official iOS update from Apple.

Have more fun in phone calls with VoiceChanger X

Anthony Bouchard ∙ August 30, 2018

Back in 2013, iOS developer Elias Limneos surprised the jailbreak community when he released one of the world’s first live voice changer jailbreak tweaks for the iPhone. VoiceChanger allowed you to have some fun with your phone calls by adjusting the pitch of your voice in real-time. Unfortunately, it was never updated for iOS 11.

But that all changed this week following the release of VoiceChanger X. Now, you can re-live the same entertainment you may have experienced in 2013 on your pwned iOS 11 handset.

Elias Limneos launches AnsweringMachine X for jailbroken iPhones on iOS 11

Anthony Bouchard ∙ August 23, 2018

Two years ago, jailbreak tweak developer Elias Limneos revolutionized the way iPhone users interact with voicemail with a release called AnsweringMachine. Now, that very same tweak has been updated with official support for iOS 11, and it has been rebranded as AnsweringMachine X.

AnsweringMachine X reincarnates the legacy of what some might consider one of the best jailbreak tweaks ever devised for the iPhone. With it, users can replace Apple’s joke of a native voicemail handler with something far more useful in terms of functionality.
