With the arrival of iOS 7 it's an undeniable fact that Apple changed the way our iPhones, iPads and iPod touches look in a pretty major way. Whether you like the more colorful, more flat and more playful aesthetic or not, there's no doubt that the hardware in your hand may have stayed the same, but the software is all-new.
Jay Freeman, the creator and maintainer of the alternative App Store for jailbroken devices, has updated Cydia Substrate (formerly Mobile Substrate) to version 0.9.5000. The recently released Evasi0n7 jailbreak managed to take everyone by surprise, including Freeman himself, but today’s news means that the final piece of the jailbreak puzzle is in place, leaving developers free to update their packages and extensions for Apple’s latest 64-bit devices such as the iPhone 5s and iPad Air.

Having an old device that doesn't run the latest versions of the software is bad enough, but not being able to even give the new stuff a try is a real pain in the neck. Plenty of us have old iPhones sat in drawers that could be repurposed for all kinds of things, but chances are they've not got iOS 6 on them,let alone iOS 7.
