As with the race to get App Store apps updated for iOS 8, jailbreak developers are also still working to get their tweaks ready for the new mobile operating system. Again, just like App Store developers, some have been quicker to get updates out than others and that's not always through a lack of effort. Some tweaks just need some work to get right.

The successor to the popular HideMe7 Cydia tweak for iOS 7, HideMe8 is now available for iOS 8 / 8.1 as well. HideMe8 should be your one-stop app to tweak and remove all your UI elements in Apple’s latest and greatest firmware for mobile devices.

The iPhone 6 / 6 Plus' Reachability feature while much needed, is no justice to the glorious Retina display. Especially in times of typing, you want the keyboard to conveniently slide to one side of the screen for reaching those keys extended to the far corners of your reach, instead of the entire screen. This is where HandyKey - a new Cydia tweak - comes in.

Mobile devices bring a wealth of functionality to our fingertips, but whilst we can get a lot done on a smartphone or tablet, our beloved gadgets can also enhance the potential of our other most cherished electronics. Streaming and file sharing are great examples of how modern hardware and software can work in tandem, but while both are possible through Apple's mobile products courtesy of features native to iOS and OS X, tethering can be a bit of a funny one. Should you be willing to take the leap and jailbreak, though, you could quite easily turn your iOS device into a hotspot operating on your terms, and one of the most popular tethering tweaks has just been updated for iOS 8.

The jailbreak scene has been inundated with several awesome new tweaks since the Pangu team came through with its universal untether for those running the all-new iOS 8 / 8.1 software. From brand-new ideas to swift updates of old favorites like f.lux, we've not been short of options since Cydia waltzed back into our lives, and now, you can further enhance functionality by means of a tweak that allows you to alter the native resolution of your iPhone.
