Choosing to free an iOS device from Apple's walled garden means that users are able to extend the capabilities of an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch beyond what first-party and approved third-party apps can provide. The Speak Notification package, is a powerful tweak that allows jailbroken users to heavily customize how incoming notifications are handled.

If you love a good theme, but don't want to part with cash to transform your device, what would you say if there was a flat, elegant option out there that embodies everything that iOS 7 is about, but is offered totally free-of-charge? Let us introduce you to Liminal - iOS 7.
JellyLock, one of Cydia's most loved lock screen app launchers, is the latest to provide that sense of elation to end-users thanks to an update that brings with it full support for iOS 7.
History has shown us that the most popular Cydia tweaks are those that work seamlessly with iOS to enhance to overall experience for the user. CleverPin, a tweak developed by Filippo Bigarella, is certainly one of the must-have options for the security conscious and has been updated with full support for iOS 7.
FolderEnhancer by Lance Fetters has been one of the longest running and widely supported packages available on Cydia. When Apple introduced the ability to create folders in iOS, it was generally accepted that the implementation was a long way off from being perfect. FolderEnhancer for iOS was thought to be the answer to that lack of perfection, introducing a number of powerful enhancements that made working with folders on iOS 4.0 and higher almost a pleasure. iOS has progressed significantly since those days, as have Apple's implementation of home screen folders. With that said, there is always room for improvement, which is where FolderEnhancer (iOS 7) steps into the limelight.
There are thousands of themes available on Cydia. But not all of them are worthy of your hard earned money. Here we have compiled a list of our top 5 WinterBoard for iOS 7 themes that we think are worthy of running on your jailbroken iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.
Grand Theft Auto 5 will undoubtedly go down as one of the biggest gaming titles of last year. Rockstar Games released the title amidst unprecedented levels of excitement, with content and sales figures managing to not disappoint either publisher or consumer. Thus far, it's only been console owners who have been able to get in on the crime laden action which GTA 5 represents. However, that might change really soon, after online retailer Amazon inadvertently let the cat out of the bag, pretty much confirming recent speculation regarding an imminent GTA 5 for PC release.
The path to a jailbroken and liberated iOS 7 device has proved to be full of hurdles and unforeseen obstacles. History has already shown us on more than one occasion that releasing a jailbreak can delight and infuriate users in equal measure, something that has once again been proven with the release of Evasi0n7.
We've already witnessed Apple make some significant changes to how iOS looks and feels, but we could also see Samsung following closely behind. The South Korean company is rumored to be planning big things for 2014, which will inevitably result in a number of new product releases, the first of which will be the Galaxy S5, and is rumored to be introduced to the market on February 23rd.
After being originally teased back in October of last year, the Beats Music app is now available to download for iOS, Android and Windows Phone through the relevant app stores. Beats, a company who take their music very seriously, are describing the new service as a place being "curated by people who believe music is emotion and life". The differentiating factor that exists within Beats Music appears to be the fact that the app and service is built around musical customization that exists to try and present subscribers with a perfectly curated playlist of music based on their current tastes and moods.
