As we conclude the Thanksgiving holiday this weekend, we just wanted to mention how thankful we are to have a jailbreak and to have such wonderful readers like you here at iDB.
In this roundup, we’ll discuss all the jailbreak tweaks released in Cydia from Monday, November 19th to Sunday, November 25th. As usual, we’ll kick things off by talking about our favorite releases and then outline the rest afterward.
At first glance, it might seem like your iPhone has just one volume control that you can change with the volume buttons at the side of the handset, but there are actually nine different volume controls present on your handset.
It can be challenging to discern which volume control you’re adjusting when you press your device’s volume buttons, and so iOS developer midkin just launched a new jailbreak tweak called SmartVolumeMixer to make life a bit easier in this department.
If you use the Facebook app on your iPhone or iPad, then you probably noticed that the social platform has started injecting advertisements in everything you do, from watching videos to perusing Stories, etc.
Advertisements are a necessary evil because they help drive revenue, but too many in one place tend to become a nuisance for the end user. With that in mind, iOS developer Rishanan created a new jailbreak tweak called FacebookAdBlocker that aims to revitalize your Facebook experience.
If you have a jailbroken handset, either by way of Electra or unc0ver, then you might want to know what you should install on it.
In this roundup, we’ll discuss all the jailbreak tweaks released in Cydia from Monday, November 12th to Sunday, November 18th. As usual, we’ll kick things off by talking about our favorite releases and then outline the rest afterward.
While I enjoy using Twitter, I’ve come to frown upon the bevy of promoted Tweets that litter the News Feed viewing experience. Fortunately, you can now get around this if you have a jailbroken device.
Upon launching the Cydia Store and refreshing your sources, you should notice a new free jailbreak tweak called NoTwitterAds by iOS developer Chloee. This tweak does away with all promoted Tweets in your News Feed, much like the one shown above.
The App Store is home to a plethora of third-party alternatives to the official Twitter app; they exist in response to some of the official app’s shortcomings. But if you have a jailbroken iOS device, then you can often tweak the official Twitter app to get precisely what you want out of it.
Enter Twitter Labs, a new free jailbreak tweak by iOS developer Chloee that gives jailbreakers access to a multitude of settings and features that one could only dream of accessing on a stock device.
In a recent update to the official Twitter app, the social network now requires mobile users to tap a floating button at the bottom-right of the screen to compose a Tweet.
Unfortunately, Twitter doesn’t let users move the floating Tweet composition button out of its default location, but with a new free jailbreak tweak called MovableTweetButton by iOS developer Chloee, you can finally drag it out of your way.
The jailbreak community is lucky to have Pwn20wnd on its side. After releasing several more updates to unc0ver, the jailbreak tool is now more stable and reliable than ever before, and that’s awesome for anyone who wants to install jailbreak tweaks to customize their device(s).
This roundup will encompass all the jailbreak tweaks released from Monday, November 5th to today, Sunday, November 11th. As usual, we’ll kick things off by talking about our favorite releases first and then wrap things up by outlining the rest afterward.
If you remember the good old days when you could visit a web page in mobile Safari and swipe your finger over a virtual slider to achieve a jailbreak (yes, I’m pointing at you JailbreakMe), then we’ve got some good news for you.
iOS hacker and developer Sem Voigtländer (@UKERN Software) appears to be working on a JailbreakMe-styled tool that you can visit in mobile Safari that theoretically supports iOS firmware versions from 4.0 to 12.0.1 (*with some exceptions*).
If you’re rocking a jailbroken iOS 11 device, then you’re undoubtedly looking for ways to modify it to your personal liking.
This roundup will encompass all the new jailbreak tweaks released from Monday, October 29th to Sunday, November 4th. As usual, we’ll kick things off by talking about our favorite releases and then outline the rest of them afterward.
Just over a year ago, iOS developer Elias Limneos announced a ground-breaking jailbreak tweak called NFCWriter that enabled iPhone users to tap into the full potential of the NFC (Near Field Communication) chip embedded within their handset. This week, Limneos continues that fun with NFCWriter X for iOS, which can only be described as the latest iteration of the tweak.
NFCWriter X for iOS is intended for advanced users and tinkerers with an interest in playing around with NFC tags, Credit/Debit Cards, MRTD documents, and more directly from your iPhone. Nearly anything with NFC support can be tinkered with by NFCWriter X for iOS.
It’s been an exciting week for the jailbreak community. Not only have we witnessed the launch of a brand-new iOS 11-centric jailbreak dubbed unc0ver, but we’ve also been fortunate enough to observe a bevy of new jailbreak tweaks that are compatible with the new platform.
In this roundup, we’ll talk about all the new jailbreak tweaks released from Monday, October 15th to Sunday, October 21st. As usual, we’ll kick things off by discussing our favorite releases first, and then we’ll outline the rest afterward.
