Siri

This tweak lets you customize the Siri interface background on iOS 13

Siri's traditional interface is fairly Apple-esque with its darkened, yet blurred background that overshadows any app or interface that you summon the virtual assistant over the top of. But what if you could give Siri just a small touch of additional personality?

Thanks to a newly released and free jailbreak tweak called CustomSiriBG13 by iOS developer TylerD3v, now you can. If the tweak’s name wasn’t self-evident enough, CustomSiriBG13 lets jailbreakers replace the Siri interface background with virtually any image they want.

Ares is the Siri interface you’ve always wanted on iPhone

Siri can be a useful way of accessing information both on-device and via the internet, but one thing that Apple could have made better is the virtual assistant’s user interface, which at the time of this writing, takes up the entire real estate of your iPhone’s display.

A newly released jailbreak tweak dubbed Ares by iOS developer Phoenix Dev aims to make the Siri interface substantially more compact by compressing its contents into a floating view tantamount to the size of the AirPods pairing interface.
