The only possible explanation why Tweetbot doesn’t let you stream tweets over a cellular network must have something to do with data limts on your carrier plan.

Have you noticed how hard it is to share a screenshot? It’s not the most laborious thing in the world, but it’s not the easiest, either. ScreenshotShareSheet lets you share screenshots to commonly used apps, such as Messages, Email, Twitter, Facebook, and Flickr. It will let you open a screenshot to other compatible apps, too. I.

For those of us who think Apple went a little too far in iOS 7 by taking away the open tab count on Safari’s bottom right, there’s a tweak that will bring it back on jailbroken iPhones. This is one of the most basic tweaks I’ve used to date, with no configurations or extra apps needed; just install and it will turn on automatically. I.

Changing your phone’s battery icon might seem trivial, but why not? If you ever wanted to make iOS 7 look a little more like OS X, then MacBattery has you covered. It’s extremely easy to install, and lets you chose between three different battery icon designs, one of which is inspired by the OS X battery icon.

One of the main complaints from iPhone users is that iOS 7, while a fairly substantial overhaul from iOS 6, just “looks the same.” Icon Masks is a great tweak that lets you customize and refresh your home screen by letting you change the shape of app icons. To select icon shapes, you’ll need an app called WinterBoard, which should instal with Icon Masks. If it doesn’t instal automatically, click on the link below for the procedure to download and instal WinterBoard manually. I. Jailbreak your iPhone/iPad To do this procedure you must be jailbroken.

To multitask on your iPhone, you need to double-press the home button to bring up the app switcher. Doing this repeatedly could get frustrating, especially if you mis-hit the home button and end up back at the home screen. Thankfully, the aptly named MultitaskingGestures tweak lets you swipe from the edge of your iPhone’s screen to switch between apps, which makes multitasking easier and faster. Swiping up from the bottom  of the screen will close an open app, or bring up the app switcher if you’re on the home screen.  What about the Control Center, you cleverly ask. You can

Apple’s recent iOS 7 design overhaul is very bright, and the only way to darken the display without jailbreaking is by adjusting the brightness settings. Eclipse is a paid ($0.99) tweak that lets you replace iOS 7’s bright theme with a dark theme, giving apps a sleek look, while making the display less harsh on your eyes when using your iPhone in a dark environment. Eclipse also lets you change the font color within apps from white to orange, which works really well against a dark theme. It’s a very easy tweak to download and use, so give it a

Couria is a tweak that lets you quickly open a messaging box using any combination of actions from anywhere on your phone, including from within apps. It acts very similarly to your iPhone’s Messages app, showing you your messages and conversations, also giving you the ability to type messages. At the moment, there doesn’t appear to be a way to create a new message. However, this tweak is still in beta and by no means perfect, but hopefully could be getting that functionality soon. I.

Widgets are apps that can run on your home screen and bring you information directly (or control apps) instead of having to be opened. Some good examples of a widget are weather widgets that show the temperature and forecast directly on the screen, or a news feed that shows the latest news articles without needing to open. The iPhone / iPad doesn’t have this ability (unlike Macs and Android). Or does it? After jailbreaking your device, you can add some widgets to your iPhone device (assuming someone has made one for what you want). If you were thinking a music

Some iPhone/iPad wallpapers look great on Apple’s ultra-crisp Retina display, but it can look even better with a blurred, frosted glass effect. The Blurpaper tweak lets you blur your wallpaper on the lock screen, home screen, dock, and even works with the Paralax effect. It’s a little different to install this tweak as you need to download the developer’s repository, but it’s just as easy to install and use as any other tweak. I.

If you have a lot of apps on your iPhone or iPad and really are feeling the urge to organize them a bit but won’t attempt it because you know that means moving them one at a time, you’re in luck. A neat, inexpensive jailbreak tweak allows you to move multiple apps at once by selecting multiple apps and adding a check to each. Then move on and the rest follow. Here’s how to move multiple icons at once in iOS 7. I. Jailbreak your iPhone/iPad To do this procedure you must be jailbroken. If you aren’t, you can head

Control center is the tool that you pull up from the bottom of the device by swiping your finger on to the screen from off the bottom of it. You can use it to control different popular options (hence the name) on the iPhone or iPad without having to go digging through the settings. It’s a great addition to iOS but sometimes you might want to adjust it a bit. Now, thanks to you being jailbroken, you can. The jailbreak tweak in question allows you to change the shortcuts, the color, and more until it suits your liking. Here’s how

Dynamic wallpapers were introduced in iOS 7 and they are basically the same as live wallpapers from Android; a moving wallpaper. I, for one, love them, but unlike with Android, there are no ways to add other ones besides the ones Apple put on the device. That is, of course, if you aren’t jailbroken. Thanks to a jailbreak tweak you can add new dynamic wallpapers to your iPhone or iPad. It’s a bit limited at the moment, but it’s pretty safe to assume that more and more will be added in the near future. All you have to do is

You’re jealous of Air Gestures on the Galaxy Android devices. They may not be the most functional of features, but they sure do have that show off factor (that Siri just isn’t giving you anymore). Too bad the iPhone doesn’t have that sort of functionality… or does it? Thanks to a jailbreak tweak called SleekSleep, you can get at least one of the Air Gesture features on your iPhone (without having to compromise by having tons of other crappy Samsung software on your device). With SleekSleep, you can wave your hand over the proximity sensor at the top of the

Some people love the new card style multitasking switcher introduced in iOS 7, but not everyone is such a fan. A lot of people think the older iOS 6 switcher was more functional; you could see more open apps, close them and switch between them faster, and the cards are just a flashy new icon since they aren’t even live. If you happen to be one of these people and miss the old switcher, too, you’re in luck. Thanks to a jailbreak tweak you can get it back (with additional features too). Here’s how. I.
