We’ve witnessed an unprecedented number of high-quality jailbreak tweak releases in the last several weeks, and for that reason, we like to cap off each weekend with a roundup to ensure that you don’t miss anything good.
In this roundup, we’ll showcase all the most notable jailbreak tweaks released from Monday, May 12thto Sunday, May 19th. As usual, we’ll discuss our favorite releases first and then outline the rest afterward.
Our favorite releases this week
AirPort – FREE
If you’re trying to use a pair of second-generation AirPods with your jailbroken handset, then you might not be as satisfied with the experience as someone using iOS 12.2 or later would be.
AirPort is a newly-released jailbreak tweak that ports the standard AirPods pairing interface and Battery widget glyphs to devices with older versions of iOS so that even second-generation AirPods users can enjoy the latest features on a jailbroken device.
You can learn more about how the tweak works and why it’s a must-have in our full review.
HideYourApps – FREE
If you’ve ever been in the market for a no-BS app-hiding solution for your Home screen that doesn’t involve making a folder to stash unused apps, then HideYourApps is the tweak you’ve been looking for.
With HideYourApps, you can specify which apps do and don’t appear on your Home screen, and as you might come to expect, all hidden apps can still be accessed via Siri or Spotlight.
You can learn more about HideYourApps and where to get it in our full review.
LabelChanger – FREE
Your Home screen is something that you look at every single day, so why not give your app icon labels a new and refreshing appearance?
With LabelChanger, you can make your app icon labels bold, change their color, adjust their background color, and much more.
LabelChanger is a great way to make your Home screen stand out from the rest of the crowd, and so if you’re interested in learning more about it, then you should check out our full review.
Springtomize 4 – $4.99
The ever-so-popular Springtomize jailbreak tweak has been re-released in the Packix repository as Springtomize 4 with full support for iOS 11-12.1.2 baked in.
