The jailbreak community continues to salivate over an iOS & iPadOS 15 jailbreak as slow and steady progress by the Odyssey Team continues. In the meantime, iDB continues to cover news breaks and jailbreak tweak releases.
In today’s post, we’ll be taking a closer look at all the latest jailbreak tweak releases and jailbreak-centric news spanning the week of Monday, July 11th to Sunday, July 17th. As usual, we’ll start with our favorite releases and then wrap things out with an outline of everything else afterward.
Let’s jump right into it!
Our favorite releases this week
Pencil Pro – FREE
The Apple Pencil 2 is one of the best first party accessories for different models of the iPad and iPad Pro, but it does seem limited in functionality out of the box.
Pencil Pro lifts those limitations by enabling pairing of new Apple Pencils by simply magnetizing them to your iPad, and it also lets you use the Apple Pencil for what are normally finger-only gestures, such as opening Control Center, answering notifications, and more.
You can find out more about Pencil Pro and how it works in our full review post.
ProfilePicker – FREE
The ProfilePicker jailbreak tweak is a new release that Netflix needs to take some notes on. After all, it fixes a problem that lots of users take an issue with.
It makes it so you don’t have to pick a Netflix user every time you launch the app on your iPhone, which is useful when you’re the only one who uses your device to watch content to begin with.
