Ringer13 brings the iOS 13 ringer HUD to jailbroken devices

iOS 13 introduces a plethora of aesthetic changes over iOS 12, but perhaps one of the greatest improvements comes by way of the updated volume and ringer HUD interfaces, which no longer photo-bomb the center of your display when invoked.

You can already port the iOS 13 volume HUD to a pwned device with a jailbreak tweak called 13HUD, but now, you can also port iOS 13’s ringer HUD to your jailbroken handset with a secondary add-on dubbed Ringer13 by iOS developer KingPuffDaddi.

NextUp 2 upgrades iOS’ Now Playing widget with an interactive song queue

 

We absolutely love how Now Playing media information is accessible from virtually anywhere in iOS, but one thing we don’t adore is just how useless the Now Playing interface can seem at times.

Given the circumstances, we’re particularly excited to show you a jailbreak tweak called NextUp 2 (iOS 12) by iOS developer Andreas Henriksson, as it upgrades iOS’ native Now Playing interface with useful new controls pertaining to upcoming tracks.

This tweak displays the Status Bar time as roman numerals

Your iPhone’s Status Bar provides a convenient way to check the time no matter what you might be doing on your device, but a digital time display isn’t everyone’s forte.

For those who demand a fancier Status Bar time display, we recommend checking out a newly released and free jailbreak tweak dubbed Roman by iOS developer Blake Boxberger.

Give your iPhone’s wallpaper a subtle blur with BlurryPaper

Whether you’re the type of person who enjoys detailed landscapes as your iPhone’s wallpaper, or you simply favor something subtle that gives your Home screen’s app icons the spotlight, there’s probably something out there for you.

But for those who demand a stronger sense of wallpaper customization, a newly released and free jailbreak tweak called BlurryPaper by iOS developer Ziph0n lets you apply custom blurs to your wallpaper to generate some particularly stunning visual effects.

Make your pwned iPhone’s battery indicator sexier with Bazzi 2

If you’re lucky enough to sport a jailbroken iPhone X-style handset, be it an iPhone X, XR, or XS, then you might be interested in giving the standard Status Bar battery icon an upgrade.

Bazzi 2 is a new jailbreak tweak by iOS developer Blake Boxberger that permits two different types of battery-centric Status Bar customization, including integral battery icon displays and notch-based battery displays:

Enable Peek and Pop on unsupported devices with Peekable

One of the most popular functions conceived by Apple’s 3D Touch and Haptic Touch gestures on modern iOS devices is the ability to press firmly on an app icon from your Home screen to reveal a hidden menu, but there’s actually much more to this feature than meets the eye.

Peek and Pop is a great example, as it enables users to press firmly on objects throughout the operating system to view more information and options for that item. Peek and Pop is limited to devices that support 3D Touch or Haptic Touch, but with a new and free jailbreak tweak called Peekable by iOS developer Ryan Nair, you can enable Peek and Pop on any iOS device.

This tweak offers improved control over your handset’s many volume levels

There are so many different volume levels to configure in iOS that it’s not even funny. One moment you’re turning down your volume, and the next, you might realize that you’ve just muted your ringtone instead of quieting down your Now Playing volume.

iOS tries to be smart about how it configures volume depending on what you’re doing at any given point in time, but it’s far from perfect. Fortunately, a jailbreak tweak called Volume Mixer 3 by iOS developer VladMax offers users a higher sense of fine-grained and manual control over each individual volume setting present on their iOS device.

Augment your iPhone’s Home screen with Vigor 2

If you’ve just jailbroken your A12(X)-equipped (or other) iPhone or iPad for the first time, then you’re probably looking for some juicy jailbreak tweaks to spice up your handset’s stock capabilities. Fortunately, we’ve got an exciting one to show you today called Vigor 2 by the Atom Dev Team.

As shown in the screenshot examples above, Vigor 2 makes your Home screen icons a whole lot more useful by replacing the standard still images with dynamic widgets that change based on the content transpiring inside the respective app.

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.

This tweak makes iOS’ auto rotation feature more intelligent

iOS’ automatic screen rotation feature can be great when you’re indulging in activities during which landscape orientation would offer an improved reading or viewing experience, but some instances exist in which it becomes more of a headache than it’s worth.

If you’re a chronic Rotation Lock user because you feel that iOS’ auto rotation feature needs improvement, then we have a hunch you’ll come to appreciate a newly released jailbreak tweak dubbed I’mLyingDownDamnit by iOS developer CardboardFace.

This tweak puts an iOS 13-like ‘Rearrange Apps’ button in your 3D Touch menus

In case you didn’t already know, iOS 13 brings a new ‘Rearrange Apps’ option to those 3D Touch/Haptic Touch Home screen menus that we all know and love. Fortunately, those with jailbreaks can already enjoy this feature ahead of the official iOS 13 release.

Edit3d is a newly released and cleverly named jailbreak tweak by iOS developer Wh0ba that ports a similar feature to the native 3D Touch/Haptic Touch Home screen menus on jailbroken iOS 11 and 12 devices.
