Hide and Show Banner Notification Elements With 'SimpleBanners'

[Anthony Bouchard]

If you feel like you need the ability to hide and show specific elements in a notification banner from iOS 5 or newer, then a new free jailbreak tweak dubbed SimpleBanners by iOS developer Bradley Friedman gives you that ability. As shown above, you can give yourself the ability to choose exactly how clean or cluttered your notification banners will be for any application.

What can SimpleBanners hide and show? – SimpleBanners can hide and show any banner title, banner text, banner application icon, and/or banner sender name. In addition, the tweak can be used to enable and disable all banner sounds, which you usually hear when you get a banner notification to alert you.

SimpleBanners comes with a preferences pane where you will be able to enable and disable all the features you want to:



After you change a setting, the tweak doesn’t require a respring and the changes are immediate. You can mix and match any of the options to meet your own particular tastes.

The tweak is a good way to keep privacy at an all-time high. It can be used to hide message content, hide the name of a message sender, and much more so that people around you can’t tell who is texting you and what is being said. It works with all applications that support banner push notifications.

The modification will help some people and probably won't suit others. It's a neat free mod to check out, so you can try it and see if you like it.

Its nice, but it would be better if we could get option to configure individual apps. Like disable text for one but display it for another.
