Some may argue that the functionality took more than a little design inspiration from a Cydia tweak before the announcement of iOS 6, but it's now regarded as an important part of iOS. As always, we look to developers within the jailbreak community to spot little niches where they can enhance Apple's mobile operating system, and there will be plenty who would agree that Flusterless is one of those important time-saving installations.
Whenever a new piece of hardware or updated version of iOS is released from Apple, it always seems to be built around certain decisions from within that cause a little bit of fuss and confusion. The iPhone 4S proved to be one of the fruit company's most successful iPhone models to date, but the decision to include facial detection only for still image capture still proves to be a discussion point. The FaceDetectionVideo4S tweak within Cydia eradicates that issue for those who are still operating the fifth-generation iPhone.

Apple's annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) is fast approaching and with that excitement and anticipation comes the discussion around the potential for any new hardware or software to be announced during the event. It's becoming increasingly difficult to predict the route which Apple will go down in terms of hardware specifications and release schedules, but analyst Ming-Chi Kuo is standing by his turn-of-the year predictions regarding the fruit company's 2013 plans.
Photos, and more specifically, the sharing of photos, has always been extremely popular with iPhone and iOS users in general. Capturing, viewing and sharing images with friends and family has always been extremely easy with Apple devices, which is something that was been made even easier with the introduction of Photo Stream in iOS 5 and Shared Photo Streams in iOS 6. One of the latest packages to land in Cydia comes with the sole intention of providing users with a little additional control over how Photo Stream works on a jailbroken device.

We all, at some point, find ourselves in a situation whereby we put off a task for a moment, forget it, and only get around to considering it again when it's too late.

Most of people nowadays carry smartphones around with them wherever they go, and while this is useful for a multitude of reasons, it means if that so-called Kodak moment arises, it will not be missed. As time goes on, smartphone cameras have gotten much better, and through the last couple of revisions of iOS, Apple has experimented with ways to make it easier for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch users to quickly take a shot with minimal fuss. iOS brought he camera button to the lock screen, which has since evolved into an icon/slider, but if that still isn't quick enough for you, jailbreak developer flux has come through with a nifty tweak called QuickShoot which allows you to take a shot almost instantaneously by tapping that Camera app icon.
