With all the extravagant changes Apple seems to be making to the iOS mobile operating system with respect to recent updates, it remains to be seen why important things such as the native Phone app haven’t received new or useful functionality.
iOS developer MiRO92 recognized at least one way that the Phone app could be improved, and as such, created a jailbreak tweak dubbed Searchy.
Like clockwork, jailbreakers continue to rough out the annual drought that swings around this time of the year after Apple shakes things up with new software updates and product releases.
But not all is doom and gloom in the jailbreak community, as an upcoming untether planned for release later this month has a lot of jailbreakers excited about upgrading the capabilities of their existing pwned handsets.
The Sileo Team is out with yet another update for the Sileo package manager this Saturday afternoon with a number of miscellaneous bug fixes that should lend subtle improvements to the app’s user experience.
Freemium apps and games are pretty much the gold standard these days as they’ve proven to be somewhat profitable. After tossing users an addicting bone, such as a Scrabble game, those users will gnaw away even after being subjected to the same repetitive full-screen ads, move after move.
YouTube is a popular platform for sharing and watching videos, but it also happens to be an excellent time waster for when you’re waiting around for appointments or partaking in activities where time seems to drag because you have nothing else to do.
After what felt like an unending lull in the jailbreak community, things started getting kicking back up again in the past couple of weeks after a whole lot of hubbub about upcoming untether releases and reassurances that iOS & iPadOS 15 could see jailbreaks despite Apple’s best efforts to make jailbreaking harder to achieve.
Much of the jailbreak community’s resources, including jailbreak tweaks and themes, have migrated to smaller third-party and developer-owned repositories over the past several years. This seemed to be a direct response to the shutdown and archival of the ModMyi and MacCiti & ZodTTD repositories, and was further exacerbated by the shutdown of the Cydia Store back in 2018.
After a crazy week for Apple that saw the official release of the iPhone 13 & iPhone 13 Pro lineup in addition to the official release of iOS & iPadOS 15, we’re excited to reflect on the fact that there are still tons of jailbreakers out there despite being on older handsets with older versions of iOS & iPadOS.
Amid all the recent excitement surrounding jailbreak untether hype and the confirmation that one would be officially released on October 21st, there’s certainly a lot to look forward to. But for right now, it’s business as usual for jailbreak groups like the Odyssey Team.
If you’ve had your eyes glued to jailbreak community developments amid all the talk of untethers recently, then you’re not alone, and we’re especially excited to share that you’re in for some good news.
When you receive notifications on your iPhone or iPad, there are two primary choices you can make: 1) tap on the notification to view its contents in the respective app; or 2) delete and ignore the notification, never to see it again.
Some people do the latter so frequently that they accidentally delete notifications they don’t intend to. As frustrating as this can be, iOS developer Litten has just released a new and free jailbreak tweak called Vē that logs each and every incoming notification you receive so that it can be referenced by the end user later on.
Just this past week, Apple unveiled the spectacular new iPhone 13 lineup and scheduled an official release date for iOS & iPadOS 15 on this coming Monday. Despite the upcoming changes, the jailbreak community continues to hang in there.
