Avoid accidentally deleting notes from your iPhone with NotesConfirmToDelete

Whenever you need to remember something important, your iPhone’s Notes app is always around to help with that. But when it comes time to delete your notes, sometimes an excited finger can go on to delete more than you’ve bargained for; these are commonly called “accidents.”

Fortunately, a new free jailbreak tweak called NotesConfirmToDelete by iOS developer Frozen Penguin is now available in Cydia and aims to mitigate the number of note deletion-related accidents you’ll incur on your jailbroken handset.

Elias Limneos launches AnsweringMachine X for jailbroken iPhones on iOS 11

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.

Adagio is a modernized quick switcher for jailbroken iOS 11 devices

It wasn’t long ago that we showed you Avertas, a jailbreak tweak that ported Auxo’s famous Hot Corners and Quick Switcher features to pwned iOS 11 handsets.

Mapsic incorporates music controls into Apple and Google Maps

Hot off the heels of Cydia’s latest repository refresh is a new jailbreak tweak called Mapsic by iOS developer Antique, which incorporates an elaborate music player experience into the Apple and Google Maps apps.

The screenshot examples above depict how Mapsic looks in both apps. In both instances, the music player is both low-key and visually-stunning.

Avertas reincarnates Auxo’s popular multitasking gestures on iOS 11

Auxo was one of the most popular multitasking tweaks ever made, and while most people enjoyed it because of the redesigned App Switcher, the tweak was also renowned for its intuitive multitasking gestures like Hot Corners and the Quick Switcher.

Auxo hasn’t been updated with iOS 11 support and it probably never will be. But that doesn’t mean you have to live without its award-winning multitasking gestures. A new free jailbreak tweak called Avertas by iOS developer kunderscore is now available that ports these features to jailbroken iOS 11 devices.

EinsteinVibes brings haptic feedback to iOS’ Calculator app

There've been a lot of haptic feedback-based jailbreak tweaks released in my day, but EinsteinVibes by iOS developer LacertosusDeus is one of the first I’ve seen that brings haptic feedback to the stock Calculator app in iOS.

EinstienVibes harnesses the power of Apple’s Taptic Engine to provide Calculator app users with a subtle vibration each time they tap on any of the app’s buttons.

Customize your iPhone’s notification badges with BetterBadges

If you’re a particularly popular person, then you might be used to having a slew of red notification badges staring back at you from your Home Screen. But with a new free jailbreak tweak called BetterBadges by iOS developer Orangebananaspy, you can customize the look and feel of your notification badges in exciting new ways.

In the screenshot examples above, you can see some of the ways BetterBadges sets itself apart from the stock notification badge style. Not only does it provide you with colorization options, but it also includes different shapes and sizes to augment the aesthetic, especially if you happen to use a theme on your jailbroken handset.

TapVideoConfig lets you adjust your iPhone’s recording quality from the Camera app

Depending on the type of iPhone or iPad you have, you might be able to change your Camera app’s video settings to support better picture quality or to conserve storage space when recording. But sadly, Apple makes the process more convoluted than it needs to be.

A new free jailbreak tweak called TapVideoConfig by iOS developer SpicaT simplifies the process by letting you change your iPhone’s video recording quality from directly within the stock Camera app itself.

Pascal provides a new volume HUD experience in iOS 11

By now, the entire world is screaming about how atrocious iOS' volume HUD looks. It pops up right in the center of your display, interrupting your workflow for several seconds before slowly fading away.

Innumerable jailbreak tweaks have addressed this situation in the past, but one of the sexiest examples to launch in Cydia as of late is Pascal by iOS developer Antique.

This tweak puts a free RAM indicator in the iPhone X’s Status Bar

The iPhone X’s notch compelled Apple’s to redesign the handset’s Status Bar to make the best use possible of the free space available. The result doesn’t look that bad, but software tinkerers in the jailbreak community always find ways to improve trivial things of this nature.

A prime example is a new free jailbreak tweak called FreeRAMUnderTimeX by iOS developer i4M1k0SU. Just as the name suggests, this tweak displays the amount of free RAM you have right under the time indicator in the iPhone X’s Status Bar.

Customize the Camera app in iOS 11 with Shutter

Photography is a common interest among iPhone owners, and that’s why Apple packs a capable hardware and software package inside of every handset. Nevertheless, iOS’ stock Camera app could still do with some improvements.
