One of the iOS App Store's most powerful method of unarchiving ZIP files has just been put through a significant update. WinZip for iOS, released by WinZip Computing LLC, has long been thought of as the de-facto options for users wanting to interact with archived files directly on their iOS device. Although the universal app has benefited from relatively minor upgrades during the course of 2013, the push to version 3.0.0 sees a total app overhaul to fall in line with the new iOS 7 guidelines as well as supporting a number of iOS 7 only technologies.
After releasing version Evasi0n 1.0.3 only yesterday, Evad3rs have now just pushed out another update to Evasi0n iOS 7.x jailbreak, this time updating it to version 1.0.4.

Finally, the wait is over! Jay Freeman, who is more widely known as Saurik, has released updated version of WinterBoard that fully supports all devices running iOS 7, including the newer ones on ARM64 like iPhone 5s, iPad Air and Retina iPad mini.

Apple's approach to the cameras that it puts in its iPhones has always been rather different to some of its competitors. Nokia likes to throw as many pixels at its cameras as it can, and Samsung tends to follow a similar theme with the cameras that it puts in its Android smartphones. Apple, instead, likes to stick with its 8-megapixel shooter but to tweak it, adding features in both hardware and software that will make it shine when it counts; in the photos you take.
It’s no hidden fact that with the amount of personal data that our smartphones today hold, privacy and identity protection is a huge concern. There have been ways around to “lock” your device for a very long time - long before iPhone and Android ever existed - but those phones didn’t really contain as much sensitive personal information as the former, not to mention that smartphones truly became popular and mainstream after these two contenders claimed the market. Hence, privacy concerns are much large scale now.
Being able to install new, third-party keyboards is something that users of Android phones have been taking advantage of for years now, but it's still not part of the iOS feature set.
Customizing the user-interface of an iOS device is extremely popular in the jailbreak community. Sure, plenty of us liberate our devices with the intention of downloading and applying one or two tweaks that offer essential system improvements, but as time progresses, more and more users are starting to overhaul the UI as their first task.
