Because each member of the iOS device range happens to be conveniently kitted out with at least one camera, the stock Photos app tends to fill up quickly, and while there are apps out there to help you edit and organize your snaps, it's often hard to find the time to sort things out. If you want to separate those personal, important or otherwise memorable snaps from the rest of the field - and do so in a swift, efficient manner - a new tweak called lockSafe has you covered. Not only can you create a separate folder for your most cherished images, but it's easily accessible with a simple swipe on the lock screen, and for added security, even has its own password protection system.
Such is the sheer number of iOS themes that pass through Cydia on a daily basis, that it would be nigh-on impossible to maintain coverage of all of them. However, every now and then, one particular theme catches our eye, and not only is Anode, by designer John Holmes, a very beautiful theme that covers an extensive amount of the iOS interface in general, but it has also been designed to nicely compliment each of the three iPhone 5s color options.
Instant messaging apps are ubiquitous, but although we all have our favorite third-party utilities such as WhatsApp, Skype, and others, the stock Messages app for iOS still gets plenty of use. This goes a long way to explaining why we have currently such a large count of tweaks being made specifically for Messages, and while there are swathes of great, powerful, and robust tweaks for this very purpose within Cydia, sometimes, we only want to make a subtle alteration here and there. MessageRenamer7 falls squarely within this category, allowing you to tidy up your list of messages by renaming them to whatever you like.
The Cydget tweak, released by Cydia creator Saurik, has long since offered a novel way for jailbreakers to widgetize their iOS lock screens, and with support for iOS 7, other developers have been hard at work updating and creating widgets for the masses. iOS 7 LockScreen Weather is one such Cydget theme, and although there are no prizes on offer for those managing to guess what it does, you may instead be surprised by how elegant it appears when installed.
There are plenty of tweaks out there that offer automated / schedule-based controls over the silencing of your iOS device, but a new offering called iSilent-ios7 brings its own unique, ingenious twist. See, instead of requiring you to input your meetings times manually, iSilent-ios7 collects its date straight from the Calendar app - picking up when your meetings have been scheduled for and silencing your device accordingly.
The recently released StatusWeather tweak for jailbroken iPhones and iPod touches is the definition of simplicity. There are times when an in-depth, complicated package is required to provided intricate functionality to jailbroken users. There are also times when keeping it simple is definitely the best approach. StatusWeather definitely falls under the latter category and exists to capture the current weather details and make them visible at all times by placing them in the status bar.
The lock screen has been getting quite a bit of attention in this particular jailbreak window, with developers old and new looking to enhance the look, functionality and general behavior of iOS virtual front door. Like real front doors, it's lockable for security reasons, but rather than merely shutting others out, we're often only serving to create more work for ourselves as we continually type in the Passcode / password to enter. While not such a problem for those with Touch ID, a couple of new tweaks from developer insanj will help you to customize the auto-lock time-out duration, as well as the length of time before a password is required.
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.
As first confirmed by i0n1c, the exploits enabling the Evasi0n7 to jailbreak are still present in iOS 7.0.5. This is definitely good news for the jailbreak scene as a whole, and although Apple is very likely to take steps in preventing the practice of jailbreaking with the upcoming iOS 7.1, it does mean that for those who may have accidentally updated, all is not lost.
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.
