Honey brings the Apple Watch’s Home screen experience to your iPhone

If you own an iPhone and an Apple Watch, then you know that each device’s Home screen functions in a different way. iOS' Home screen is optimized for a larger display, while watchOS' is optimized for a smaller display; but if you have a soft spot for how the Apple Watch’s Home screen works and fancy the same experience on your iPhone, then today's your lucky day because you'll no longer need to settle.

Enter Honey, a newly-released jailbreak tweak by iOS developer Blake Boxberger that ports the Apple Watch’s Home screen experience to iOS devices. As you’ll notice in the screenshot examples above, Honey can be configured to work in several different ways and lets you experience what you love about your Apple Watch right on your iPhone or iPad.
