In case you've missed out on the new jailbreak tweaks Cydia has seen, this recap will highlight the tweaks we've shown you this week. These are in no specific order.

1. QuickShoot Pro – 99¢

If you’re looking for the perfect undercover photography tweak, then look no further than QuickShoot Pro. This tweak comes with everything you’ll need to snap photographs without being noticed. It’s also perfect for being able to snap photographs quickly without having to wait for the Camera application to load. The tweak includes awesome animations and tons of options to configure.

Grabby is the kind of tweak you’re looking for if you want to add more shortcuts to the lock screen that work just like Apple’s Camera ...

In iOS, when you receive a notification on the lock screen, you will be presented with a “Slide to View” or “Slide to Reply” unlock slider that takes you directly to the application with the notification when you unlock the device. The only way to get around this is to inconvenience yourself either by pressing the sleep button to put the device to sleep and then wake it up by pressing the sleep button again, or to unlock the device ...

Customization is great.

If you agree, you should check out a new free jailbreak tweak called SliderCustomizer by iOS developer Julian Weiss. SliderCustomizer gives you tons of options for customizing the way your lock screen slide to unlock bar and slider will look, as shown above.

The tweak’s power comes from the options that it gives you to configure from the Settings application. After installing the tweak, you will find a SliderCustomizer ...

Back in December of last year, we showed you a concept by Sentry_NC that allowed you to switch your lock screen Camera Grabber into a Music grabber, Messages grabber, or a Phone grabber. This concept has been brought to life by iOS hacker and developer Ryan Petrich as a jailbreak tweak called Grabby.

With Grabby, you can just hold down on your Camera Grabber, then slide to the left, and you will find all of the grabber options you can slide over to in order to launch the ...

Drunk Mode by iOS developer Qusic will help keep you from embarrassing yourself if you end up getting completely plastered at a party with your friends (we assume that you’re over 21 if you're doing this, and that you will have a designated driver with you!)

Drunk Mode keeps you from being able to send text messages as long as the feature is enabled. If you try to send a text message (iMessages included), then you will receive a pop-up alert ...

If you use iOS’ built-in scientific calculator (accessed by turning the Calculator application into landscape mode) a lot and get tired of the application accidentally switching to portrait mode and revealing the basic calculator, then a new free jailbreak tweak called LandscapeCalc by iOS developer Julian Weiss is for you.

LandscapeCalc will lock the Calculator application into landscape position whenever you turn ...

We all have something that we want Apple to implement into iOS. Most of the things we want won’t see the light of day because that’s just the way Apple rolls. On the other hand, the jailbreak community is very good at giving iOS users what they want, like the things demonstrated in this iOS 7 concept video:

It's no secret that India is a high-priority emerging market for Apple. But the latest industry data shows that both Apple and Samsung are losing ground - and fast - to the makers of substantially more affordable devices.


Bloomberg reported Friday that 800 million people in India live on less than $2 a day. As a result, it's easy to understand why Karbonn handsets, which cost approximately ...

One of the limiting parts of the iOS Camera application is that you can’t enable the camera flash while you’re in the middle of recording. You have to enable the camera flash before or after you record a video and then you’re stuck with the selection you chose until you finish recording.
