While it’s my opinion that there’s no question iOS & iPadOS 26 drew inspiration for the new Liquid Glass aesthetic from ideas that have floated in the jailbreak community for more than a decade (just take a look at the classic GlasKlart theme to see why I feel that way), it’s typical of Apple to do things their way.
iPhone jailbreakers will always have a home here at iDownloadBlog, and while we cover iPhone jailbreak news throughout the week as it surfaces, we also come at you every weekend with a roundup just like this one ensuring that all our readers never miss the important details that could pertain to them and their jailbreakability.
One of the things that Apple really fell short on when it comes to the iPhone is the App Switcher. I’m not the only one who thinks that the iPhone could benefit from an iPad-style grid-centric App Switcher, which utilizes a grid rather than a card carousel to display recently used apps and to make them easier to return to.
If you’re a jailbreaker who’s looking for the next exciting mod to your iPhone’s Lock Screen, then we’d recommend taking a quick look at a newly released jailbreak tweak called Waktos 2 by iOS developer alimaulana, which appears to be the latest take on the once popular Waktos tweak released just over three years ago.
The iDownloadBlog team loves jailbreaking iPhones, and even as jailbreaks become scarcer as time marches on, that hasn’t stopped talented developers from creating hacks and add-ons that completely sidestep the jailbreaking process to allow users to do interesting things with their devices.
As with every major iOS & iPadOS release, there’s usually some overlap with new features that Apple announces and some pre-existing functionality that jailbreakers have had on this platform for years (or even as much as a decade) thanks to jailbreak tweaks. The same can even be said about Apple’s upcoming iOS & iPadOS 26 updates, which the Cuperinto-based company announced at WWDC 2025.
Despite the fact that there have been no modern jailbreak releases since iOS 16, the team at iDownloadBlog continues to monitor the environment for jailbreaking potential by following leading voices in the community and bringing what we learn back to all our readers.
Jailbroken device users who frequently use the Facebook and Messenger applications could have a lot to gain from using iOS developer dayanch96’s new Flow and Glow jailbreak tweaks.
Do you take a liking to audio visualizers? If the answer was yes, then you might take a liking to a new TrollStore add-on called Letterpress by iOS developer 82flex, which can apply unique audio visualizer effects to your iPhone’s Dynamic Island or Notch whenever you have media playing on your device.
One of the things about incoming message notifications on Apple’s mobile platforms that has always sort of ground my gears is the fact that dismissing a missed message notification doesn’t automatically mark those messages as read.
Nugget developer LeminLimez has released a new add-on for iPhones running iOS 17.0 and later this Sunday afternoon called Pocket Poster that makes it possible for end users to apply custom community-made animated wallpapers to their device for an added level of personalization not seen on stock handsets.
Hacking and jailbreaking iPhones & iPads is one of our favorite activities here at iDownloadBlog, so it goes without saying that we follow these spaces very closely and enjoy sharing our findings with our like-minded readers.
