With precise timing actions, or user-based triggers, this tweak can automatically perform resprings, userspace reboots, and more.

LineBreakLiberator

The LineBreakLiberator jailbreak tweak is an add-on that fixes the Safari Quick Search result truncating problem, where longer Quick Search results appear cut off.

With it, you can see your search results in more context than you could previously, especially on smaller iPhones that can’t fit all the text.

LockTimeX

The LockTimeX add-on for Xen HTML allows jailbreakers on legacy iOS 9-12 devices to have the same Lock Screen aesthetics as somebody with a modern iOS 16 or later device.

You can learn all about LockTimeX, where you can get it from, and how it looks in our full review post.
