Pocket Poster, which is a separate project from Nugget, allows users to apply custom animated PosterBoard wallpapers on iPhones running iOS 17.0 and later. Users can acquire community-made wallpapers intended for use with Pocket Poster from the official Cowabunga website.

Citing the project’s official GitHub page, Pocket Poster v2.0 introduces the following changes:

Features

– Added video wallpapers! Select videos from your camera roll and use them as wallpapers.

– Added translations for 21 new languages!
– Available languages: Arabic, Arabic (Saudi Arabia), Arabic (Egypt), Chinese (Traditional), Czech, Dutch, French, – French (Belgium), French (Canada), French (Switzerland), German, Hungarian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, – Russian, Spanish, Spanish (Mexico), Thai, Turkish, Vietnamese

Bug Fixes

– Improved backend handling of the app
– Fixed problems with alert popups not showing
– Improved error messages
– Improved cache clean up
– Fixed memory leak when applying that would lead to a crash

Among the major changes are an improved user interface, support for video wallpapers (to complement animated wallpapers), a working Reset Collections button, and support for 21 new language translations. The update also includes bug fixes that address a memory leak when applying a wallpaper, improved backend handling, a fix for alerts not appearing, and improvements to error messages and cache cleaning.

While Nugget is required to install Pocket Poster for the first time, after that, you will not need to use a computer anymore to use Pocket Poster. Everything happens on your device, allowing you to set unique wallpapers that wouldn’t be possible on an otherwise stock device. Interestingly enough, this functionality works on non-jailbreakable firmware without a jailbreak, while still mimicking jailbreak tweak functionality.
