These are the latest jailbreak apps and tweaks available for your iPhone or iPad. We save you time by highlighting only the best tweaks.
If you do excessive amounts of typing on your iOS device, then you may be able to benefit from a new free jailbreak tweak dubbed FastDeleteKey by iOS developer CydiaGeek.
FastDeleteKey makes it so that you don't have to wait forever for the keyboard's backspace function to delete large blocks of text. The tweak brings tunable backspace velocities to iOS so that you can move along at just about any rate of speed you desire.
Most iPhone and iPad users merely use their keyboard for typing inside of their apps, but with a new jailbreak tweak called KeyUtilities by iOS developer AlexK, you can use your keyboard to do so much more.
Right out of the box, KeyUtilities feels reminiscent of desktop-class keyboard shortcuts. On the other hand, it provides a bevy of iOS-centric features that you might find useful whether you’re a novice or a power-user.
As you type with your iPhone's keyboard, standard plain text characters appear on the screen, but that's not always enough if you're a heavy Emoji user. To insert Emojis, you need to visit the Emoji keyboard and tap on them manually, while the predictive keyboard suggests relevant Emoji from time to time. Nevertheless, it won’t automatically-insert them for you.
If you wish things worked a little differently, then a new free jailbreak tweak called EmojiType by iOS developer Adriano Junior is now available that automatically replaces certain text characters with relevant Emoji characters.
I can’t even begin to tell you about the countless times I’ve accidentally backspaced an entire body of text when I only wanted to remove a few words from a sentence. It seems like iOS’ automatic backspace acceleration that kicks in when you tap and hold on the backspace key can get a little too excited at times.
Fortunately, a new free jailbreak tweak called Backspace+ by iOS developer Justin Petkovic provides some relief from this issue and makes text-editing more feasible on iOS devices.
Emojis are quickly taking over in the world of texting, and a new free jailbreak tweak called IconKeyb10 by iOS developer GeoSn0w helps future-proof your texting habits by automatically inserting the Emoji equivalents of certain characters from the iOS keyboard.
The screenshot shown above is rather self-explanatory. Rather than typing the numeric characters “1,” “2,” “3,” etc. when you tap on those keys from the iOS keyboard, the tweak inserts the Emoji counterparts instead.
We've seen jailbreak tweaks that let you designate favorite emojis, but none so far that allow you to block emojis you don't like seeing from appearing in apps.
If you dislike certain emojis, or a friend of yours uses them too often in messaging or social media, then a new jailbreak tweak called Nomoji by iOS developer PoomSmart will come in clutch.
Emojis are one of the joys of texting and instant messaging, and iOS integrates them right into the keyboard for your convenience. A feature embedded within the Emoji selector keeps track of the Emojis you use the most often and puts them in a category called “Frequently Used.”
Since you might prefer to manually designate your favorite Emojis for this section, a jailbreak tweak called FavoriteEmojis was recently released for this purpose, but a new competing tweak called Selectmoji by iOS developer Cole Cabral is now available that is said to address some of the shortcomings of the former tweak.
The iOS keyboard includes a key dedicated specifically to accessing the host of Emojis you can use to express your mood. Part of this interface includes a section for Emojis you use frequently, and while it can be useful, suggestions aren't always ideal.
With a new jailbreak tweak dubbed FavoriteEmojis by iOS developer Adeem Mawani, you can manually designate your favorite Emojis by choice; these are the ones that will begin populating the “Frequently Used."
Anyone who does a lot of texting or typing on their iPhone or iPad knows that iOS’ copy and paste system leaves a lot to be desired.
Fortunately, a jailbreak tweak called Pasithea 2 by Cannathea can help make using the pasteboard less of a hassle by integrating it right into the keyboard itself.
If you ever use the predictive keyboard to type faster responses to people from your device, then you’re likely familiar with those ugly separator lines in between the suggested words and the unappealing difference in background color that the buttons have when compared with the rest of the keyboard.
A new free jailbreak tweak called KB - NoPredictiveBackground by pxcex removes the background color and lines from the predictive keyboard buttons, leaving you with much cleaner-looking buttons.
If you’re into the haptic feedback craze and enjoy feeling the ‘buzz’ in your hand when you perform actions on your iPhone, then you’re going to love a new free jailbreak tweak for called HapticKeyboard by developer Cole Cabral.
As the name suggests, this tweak enables haptic feedback as you type on your keyboard on your iPhone.
One of the cool new features of iOS 10 is the ability to input Emojis through the predictive row at the top of the keyboard that tries to guess what you're trying to say before you say it.
When you express certain words, iOS 10 will recommend Emojis to communicate the word instead, and a new free jailbreak tweak called EmojiSuggest brings this functionality to jailbroken iOS 9 devices as well.
