Dashtweet Dashboard X Widget Twitter

Tweet From Your iPhone’s Springboard via The Dashtweet Widget [Cydia]

Dashboard X (reviewed here) is all the rage over at the Cydia store these days. People are calling it the biggest thing to come to iOS since Notification Center. The widgets platform is still in its early days though, and there aren’t a lot of widgets available for it yet. However, due to the potential [...] (more…)

GrabberApp iOS Cydia

Set iOS 5.1 Camera Grabber To Launch Any App With GrabberApp [Cydia]

Back before the release of iOS 5.1, we covered a Cydia tweak named AnyAppLock (reviewed here), which simply allowed users to replace the iPhone lockscreen camera button with a shortcut to any app of their choice. A lot has changed since then, and camera grabber has taken the place of the camera button on iPhone’s [...] (more…)

OneByOne Contacts Cydia iOS

Swipe To Quickly Delete A Contact On iOS With OneByOne Contacts [Cydia]

Despite all its positives, iOS has a few really annoying features that have managed to stay in the OS for a very long time. One such nuisance is the contacts deletion button. If you want to delete a contact from your iPhone, iOS seems to oppose this change with all its might. The Delete button [...] (more…)

Dashboard X: Add Notification Center Widgets To iOS Springboard & Lock Screen [Cydia]

Widgets are something that have been exclusive to Android so far, and although iOS now offers a couple of native Notification Center widgets, they are not the same as Android’s ever-present and feature-rich ones. Fortunately, things have finally taken a turn for the better for jailbroken iOS users. Now, it is possible to have home [...] (more…)

HomeSpringPage For iOS Adds An Empty Homescreen For Dashboard X Widgets [Cydia]

The Cydia store is certainly an active place, and every few days, a new tweak is bound to create a lot of hype among the iOS jailbreak community. These days, this tweak happens to be Dashboard X (recently reviewed here). After all, who wouldn’t want to have some truly gorgeous and useful widgets on the [...] (more…)

AutoProtect Bypasses iPhone Lock Screen Passcode When On A Specific WiFi Network [Cydia]

If you are even remotely concerned about your iPhone, iPod touch or iPad’s privacy, lock screen passcode is the most rudimentary measure that can (and should) be taken, and previously reviewed Cydia tweak, CleverPin, makes that passcode intelligent enough to automatically disable itself whenever the device is connected to a trusted WiFi network, for instance, [...] (more…)

Silentce iOS Notifications

DoNotDisturb: Turn Off All iOS Alerts & Banners From Notification Center [Cydia]

A few days back, we covered a Windows Phone 7 Homebrew named Snotify. That app allowed users to silence the notifications on their WP7 device with a few toggle buttons. It doesn’t happen too often, but an iOS utility seems to have followed the Mango app’s example. The Cydia tweak is named DoNotDisturb, and is [...] (more…)

Informator iOS

Informator: Use Action Menu To Paste Device Info While Entering Text [Cydia]

If you want to share your iPhone’s IP address or other device information with someone, you have to navigate to the depths of the stock Settings app, memorize the info (as it can’t be copied) and then write it down in the Notes app or somewhere similar; a fairly unintuitive way of doing things. Not [...] (more…)

SimpleWiFi NC Widget

SimpleWiFi Adds A Slim WiFi Toggle & IP Address To iPhone Notification Center

For all the SBSettings users, many of the tweaks available in the Cydia store are useless or redundant. You want to toggle off Bluetooth, Wi-Fi or your data connection? SBSettings can do that. You want to view your iDevice’s IP address or other network info? Just swipe across your phone’s status bar. However, this doesn’t [...] (more…)

Gesture Control Text Selection iOS

SwipeSelection Allows Easier, Gesture-Based Text Selection In iOS [Cydia]

There isn’t much wrong with text selection in iOS, but needless to say, it could’ve been much more convenient. The area where the text to be selected is located, is usually hidden under your finger as you strive to move the cursor to an appropriate point. Also, users have to rely on the little magnifying glass [...] (more…)

SoftPad-SoftTouch.jpg

SoftPad Turns Your iPhone Into A Remote Control For Windows PC [Cydia]

There are many ways of turning your iPhone into a keyboard, mouse or a monitor for any desktop system. You can get a lot of apps and tweaks that let you do that, but not many of them have the ability to assume these roles simultaneously. SoftPad is one of the most comprehensive and easy-to-configure [...] (more…)

SpotDict Cydia iOS

Search iOS Native Dictionary From Spotlight Using SpotDict [Cydia]

For some, Spotlight search, is one of the most useful and frequently used features in iOS. It lets you search almost every facet of your iPhone, providing real-time results; almost every facet. There are many tweaks in the Cydia store that focus on making additions to Spotlight search or changing its functionality altogether. While SpotDict does not do [...] (more…)

iOS Notes Character Count

Characount Displays Character Count In The iOS Notes App [Cydia]

An idea doesn’t have to be overly complicated in order to be brilliant and useful for the masses. This principle holds true for app development as well, and a clear testament to that is the Cydia store. Most of the tweaks available in the jailbreak store are single-purpose, and users still love them. Characount is [...] (more…)

AlwaysArrange: Reorder iOS Icons Without Entering Jiggle Mode [Cydia]

iOS users must know that to rearrange the icons on their iPhone or iPad’s Springboard, they have to first enter jiggle mode by long-pressing any of the icons. This jiggle mode is active when all the Springboard and dock icons start vibrating, and the red uninstall cross appears over all third-party apps. The combination of [...] (more…)

SBUtility iOS

SBUtility: All-in-one Cydia Tweak For Customizing iOS Home Screen, Icons, Folders & Lock Screen

In the past, we have covered a lot of Cydia tweaks (and apps) that allow users to make a number of cosmetic changes to their iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. When it comes to tweaks, most of them focus on altering one or two aspects of iOS at a time. You will be hard-pressed to [...] (more…)
