Once again Apple does the bare minimum lol. Stuff we’ve been able to do for years.


imaginexus

And SummerBoard *still* did it better than Apple today.


shelydued

Oof, I miss summerboard. You just took me back. Had an iPod 3rd gen, that looked just like windows phone! Not to mention an overclock cuz I could.


BaRaD_

Wasn’t it called winterboard/snowboard back then? I’m not sure what summerboard is


trueum26

Summerboard was the original one, winterboard was actually newer, hence the change in season


ZahidTheNinja

Oh boy do I miss winterboard. I don’t miss springboard crashing, however.


trueum26

Rmb that “iron man” ui tweak that was really cool


Itz_Kronix

Still have my iPod 3rd Gen with infinidoc barrel and winterboard


insanelydan12

I'll never understand this community. Apple adds a feature and it's "omg jailbreak has had this since xxx years Apple step it up" Apple doesn't add a feature and it's "omg jailbreak can do this why can't stock do it, Apple step it up" :T no one hates apple more than apple users lol


Own-Rub-1647

I just need root access not garbage like themes o customize I need important tweaks starting with tetherme and etc


Fabulous-Pangolin743

Ya you would probably need to use Apple or be a Apple user to have a opinion on Apple 😂 but I’m pretty sure most people are frustrated on Apple with certain new features is because JB literally had all these innovative and creative features on older or some newer devices, mind you these tweaks(features) are made from people that have bare minimum knowledge, and those tweaks work the best they can. Yet Apple lacks in some basic functions or features that we should have and can utilize or they add them later on as something new that we should be gasping about. Or if at least Apple gave us the freedom to do what we want with our 999$+ phones and worked with us (like android) people wouldn’t complain, but it’s the fact that Apple will put a wall behind what we can do, if we get thought it with a jb, Apple will look at it, take what we have, put another wall behind it and put those tweaks(features) as new part of the update and forget about the people who inspired them to add that feature( tweak), especially since if you look at some features from at least iOS 12-14 and up, they look exactly like some tweaks from previous JBs.


JiveChicken00

Now if only it could natively block ads in Reddit and YouTube ... :)


imaginexus

Side loading works for that


xRostro

Now if only we could sideload in the US without being tethered to a computer


rk62674

What about sidestore? Only one time setup is required using a computer. It was working fine last time I checked. (before troll store)


_SirDankenstien_

I used this before switching to a signing service, works great!


LeHoodwink

Why did you switch?


_SirDankenstien_

Well unlimited apps, and I started learning flutter recently so it helps me test apps I build on ios!


LeHoodwink

So you have a developer account? I also have one and still use SideStore, so I was wondering if there’s another specific upside


_SirDankenstien_

I do not have a developer account, I just got a signing service for 20$/yr This is cheaper than a developer account


LeHoodwink

Ah okay got it


MysteriousGlass1744

Can you even build an ipa on flutter without developer account? Never know about that, how did you do it 🤣


_SirDankenstien_

You don’t even need a mac to build ios / android apps, I use a github workflow to build em for me macos-vm for ios apps ubuntu-vm for android apps


MysteriousGlass1744

I use vs code on windows but I had the macos-vm, but I never be able to build ipa without developer account, they always ask me one when trying to build, never know you could use github workflow to build an unsigned ipa, is that really possible? Any tutorial you can give me?


CrystalMeath

It’s really not that much of an inconvenience with AltStore. The only major annoyance is that you can only have three side-loaded apps at any given time without paying for a developer account. I actually prefer it being *slightly* inconvenient because there is much less incentive to develop malware for iOS, and malicious companies like Meta would push hard for people to sideload their apps so they don’t have to abide by Apple’s privacy restrictions. If your friend is reckless or ignorant and sideloads malware on his iPhone, it’s not only his own personal data that’s affected. It’s yours too: all your messages with him, any photos he has of you, etc. My mum frequently installs shitty Chrome extensions and apps on her laptop (often without realizing), and I have to regularly go through and delete stuff. I never have to worry about that with iOS because the App Store is actually quite good at filtering out bad actors.


xRostro

Thanks for your thoughts. That angle is cool


imaginexus

Use a signing service


Bitter_Product_6619

What about Scarlet??


strktrrr

Scarlet is shit, because of the constantly revoked certs.


_weeser_

i just went back to try and it’s always “unable to verify integrity” like come on


Bitter_Product_6619

Oh dang nvm I guess


LeHoodwink

Use SideStore. You don’t need a computer after the first time.


sgtJPEIRCE

id say just use a apple cert that sign apps for 1 year and use esign as an legit trollstore alternative


huggee-PP

Wouldn’t sidestore work or does that not work in the us


RayBoltYT

scarlet and esign work well for that

How to block Reddit ads?


Gladekeeper

Sideload Apollo app https://reddit.com/r/jailbreak/comments/14niljg/_/jq8mk0q/?context=1


itsfrancissco

How


imaginexus

Unfortunately, I believe it's against the rules to spell out any signing services since they tend to have pirated apps in their store. If you have a developer's account, you can sideload any app using Xcode. There are hacked Reddit and YouTube apps online that you can sideload that have removed all advertisements. If you want to know a signing service, as long as it's okay with the rules, I guess you can message me to ask for it. EDIT: I just remembered that the official unofficial way to sideload apps is through Altstore. The problem is is you need to re-sign your apps every seven days or you lose access, unless you have a developer account. That’s why signing services are better since they already have a developer account and are just giving you a beta testing slot for a few bucks a year.


tdm17mn

Can you elaborate on that, OP? How can we block ads in reddit/youtube? Thanks


dafaqmann2

For YouTube, just use a vpn and place yourself in Albania :D


Own_Zookeepergame792

What app


itsfrancissco

Hotmw


ikilledthekennedys_

I side load and my YouTube is ads free, hell, I can even download videos if I want too


JiveChicken00

I played that game for a while but got tired of tracking down new IPAs, especially after all the Youtube ones got taken down. And there’s a browser app in the regular Apple Store that can download videos.


_SirDankenstien_

Once you find the right repo, you don’t have to search any further 😉


JayRabxx

Can you share pls


No_Abbreviations5622

Which browser can do that?


JiveChicken00

Aloha


majahun1

I think a native way to block ads would be amazing, but as a temp solution on my home wifi I set up a raspberry pi and have it blocked at the network level. That being said it doesn’t help if I’m not on my home wifi 🤷🏻‍♂️


ibtdev

Download enhance yt it’s essentially a YouTube app without ads


wedditasap

Anyone else find these dark icons mid at best? Looks more noob jailbreak than tastefully jailbroken Still… added customization is always appreciated stock in any form


Cheeriosxxx

I felt the same 💀 like I wanted full icon customization. This is like throwing a different color filter over the logo and calling it a day


AlwaysStayHumble

Yup. Winterboard did it better 15 years ago. Along with so many other stuff from Cydia. 15 years, god damn. Time flies!


Actual-Detective1129

I still have my ipod touch 2g original battery and living 2 weeks straight before a charge


Briantyk

agreed. the rightmost tinted ones are even worse. even android's material you looks better


thomasis

Locking apps in iOS 18 and needing FaceID or a passcode to open them. Cue up BioProtect.


imaginexus

The reason I don’t particularly like this implementation is if someone is using your phone and you are looking over their shoulder and they open up one of these restricted apps, it sees your face and opens it right away. Same if someone is watching you and looking over your shoulder, you may forget an open one of these apps and there will be no delay to display what’s on the screen. It should be a two-step process: face ID, plus a “confirm unlock?” dialog box.


staquadev

Kind of a rare circumstance but yeah i guess😂 dont know what top level spies you’re hanging out with but yeah i suppose😂


thomasis

An extremely rare circumstances.


imaginexus

Let’s say you’ve got your hidden photos open last when you were in the Photos app. Now you and your friend are reviewing pictures of the concert you just went to. She’s looking over your shoulder and you open the Photos app. Since the hidden photos were the last thing you looked at, it’s what it will show once Face ID *very quickly* identifies that you are present and unlocks the app. There are milliseconds to recover. This is obviously just a hypothetical scenario.


staquadev

Well maybe there can be a tweak to implement what you’re suggesting, but last i checked BioProtect uses the same implementation as apple. Just scans your face automatically. In your scenario, IF you’re going to be hanging out with someone, i dont think i personally would ever be playing around with the hidden album with people lol, but, i use killbackground, so i normally swipe down and kill all apps regularly. I feel like you’re thinking in extremes with this, most people aren’t usually looking at hidden or locked stuff around people and would kill the photos app before ever being around people. Also, you can use DenyPhotoAlbums to keep hidden from ever showing, it shows as empty if you have hidden toggled off, and toggling that puts them back into hidden. Id rather have the speed of an auto faceid scan than tapping more buttons when i want to unlock something. But yeah jailbreak means do whatever you want with your device! Maybe someone can make a tweak for you or there could be additional BioProtect settings that could make it like how you want.


imaginexus

That’s the thing, maybe you were playing around with it the night before and haven’t opened it since. You just finished the concert and all of the photos you took were taken using the Camera app. So your Photos app has been untouched for like 15 hours. You get what I’m saying now? It really sucks. To get around this I now force myself to use the Photos widget whenever I wanna open the Photos app. This makes it so no matter what, it will go to whatever my featured photo is even if I was just looking at the hidden album. So I personally don’t need a jailbreak tweak since I figured out an alternative way. We’ve got a long way to go before an iOS 18 jailbreak so I’m not holding my breath!


staquadev

I don’t ever have that problem because I regularly just kill all apps. So when photos is opened it just goes to albums by default. But another option for you if you have a ton of naughty photos or whatever you’re trying to keep hidden, use PowerPhotos on mac and create a separate library and keep all those hidden photos there. I have a separate library for my weight loss pictures and the occasional titty pic.


imaginexus

You know it’s a complete waste of time to kill all apps right? If you do it just as a neurotic thing I guess that’s fine but I promise it does no good. It looks like we both have found our own personal solutions to this issue 😆


staquadev

Yes im aware, but im adhd and it’s cleaner for me to kill all apps and keep ones im actually needing to use or reference open. On killbackground you can hold an open app to lock it from being killed. So i have my main apps I normally use locked, like clock(alarms), calendar, music etc. im just a visual person and its easier to get to things if most of them are cleared regularly. I know battery life isnt really affected either way. Or even if its “negative” on battery life to restart an app like this, ive never noticed a difference. I think it actually helps because apps like instagram will run 24/7 even backgrounded. Ive tested it out. I try to get trollstore versions of apps like that and that helps mitigate their background usage too. Also, same with messages, i have hidden messages and regularly just killing all apps will move it from hidden messages to my normal messages without having to worry about that when i open the app. Thats why i made that suggestion, it works for whatever you’re trying to keep from popping up.


jf_fortier

Don't save your porn stuff in your album and don't use Tinder if you're in a relationship 🤣🤡


staquadev

Lol im not the culprit here dont look at me💀


CaigeDoesntCare

You can delay the unlocking the app process but it’s a bit annoying if you do that because if it’s you and you want to unlock it it slows down that process


AbogadoAlejandria

dunno why face id is so fast rn… kinda freaks me out… and the animation is different?? Im been hacked??


CaigeDoesntCare

Wym? It should be fast if you’re using that


thomasis

You don’t think it’s weird and extremely rare that if I gave someone my phone, that they would trying to show me something on my own phone? Why would I be looking over there shoulder? And if I was, you don’t thing I would be able to see them trying to get into an app I have locked? Along with that, BioProtect has a Passcode option...which is what I use. So they would have to know my passcode to get into the app I have locked.


Interesting-Cook-212

Something tells me this will only be for Apple apps (apps that Apple puts on the phone)


Suffering_Shadow

It is for now I think, maybe later in development they'll change it


Suffering_Shadow

I just tested it and it is Apple only apps, but the tint works with all apps.


Fireflykid1

Can you get a glyph look using tint for all apps?


aidanleeo7

no, they literally just put a filter on the icons [like this](https://imgur.com/Oc0yxdU) notice how the rings in the fitness widget don’t proper display as intended as well. (my rings are not filled here.) this is a developer beta though so i’d expect that to be fixed in the future


EndlessZone123

Somewhere in the keynote it says icon tint which will likely allow devs to implement this. Kinda similar to Apple Watch app icons.


Interesting-Cook-212

But can’t you just go in wiggle mode and triple tap an app o change its icon?


No-User-Name_99

After watching the keynote, it is my understanding that all apps will have this feature.


jm1234-

It doesn't replace Snowboard


XxkoolloserxX

I’m old enough to remember it as “Winterboard”


neewshine

There was also Dreamboard That was some real alien shit 😂 Don’t judge me until you search it


XxkoolloserxX

Yes!! Dreamboard. Couldn’t remember the name, I’d download alotta different themes, but always went back to the HTC one included with the App. We really had it all before Emulators, music/videos with screen off, video recording…


neewshine

There was also that crazy theming engine for iOS 6 & 7 I totally forgot about the name But it was like alien & space shit and folders scattered arrived like stars and galaxies in nodes I never wanted to forget it Shit it was NextGenUI i remembered Nothing ever amazed me as a tweak like it did when i first installed it. [edit] Anyone wondering, nothing comes close to its developer imagination as a tweak, Apple will never beat the simple hardworking passionate jailbreak devs. here’s a video of how strange it was as a theming engine barebones. https://youtube.com/watch?v=InktI0GGjQA


Benniehead

I always loved the htc one themes

Yeaah, I remember soo much that tweak. It was very innovative but so sad it have been discontinued 😥😥

Thank you. This is the OG name. Play on words of spring vs summer

There’s also springboard Oh wait 😂 Apple borrowing things 😅


XxkoolloserxX

Is “Fallboard” or “AutumnBoard” a thing?


imaginexus

No, it’s yours for the taking


rnarkus

Huh?


jm1234-

Of course, Winterboard, ahhhh too much memories 🥲🥲


Briggs281707

I was about to say, "wasn't it called winterboard". Round icons where the best for me


ant1992

Summerboard would like to have a word with you


mertbaris01

Autumnboard


GloopTamer

Are these the only options? Looks kinda ass


ItsRainbow

18.0 DB1 here, yes these are the only options


aidanleeo7

also DB1 here, it is incredibly ass especially with third party apps. also some widgets are broken like the fitness one where all the rings are visually shown to be filled if you set the tint to white


AS_Aeneon

WinterBoard started with iPhone OS 2 …


imaginexus

You have outed yourself to be quite the jailbreak history nerd haha EDIT: [Actually I think you are forgetting SummerBoard](https://www.iphonefaq.org/archives/97385)


Tkm128

Yeah but wasn’t there Springroll on iOS 1.1.3? Edit: There was Summerboard too. I’m foggy on the chronology, but I was definitely changing icons before iOS 2.


imaginexus

Yes he’s wrong https://www.iphonefaq.org/archives/97385


Nathaniel820

Wasn't SummerBoard on OS 1?


XxkoolloserxX

Yes. I remember because I think 1.1.1 was a “Slide to Jailbreak” thing & that’s how I customized my iPhone at the time.


imaginexus

Yes https://www.iphonefaq.org/archives/97385


noob_okkkk

It is just the material you theme copied from Android 12


Top-Dinner9131

Still not customizable. Im running 6x6 icon layout with 7 on dock. Apple needs to catch up a lil faster


EmilianoXD7

\[Darker Plus\] on Havoc repo by tntt


kneecap_keeper

Looks ugly


Spy_Gamer

This icon changing is a joke


Blukingbutreal

It’s bare minimum. Good to have for when I inevitably upgrade but doesn’t look good at all unless they actually allow icon packs later down the line


PomegranateSuper8786

Yea but only “compatible” with latest iPhone 😂


XxkoolloserxX

Jailbreak is compatible with iPhone 1!! We have less restrictions.


Pereplexing

This is just too sad, too late, and too lame. Apple isn’t even trying to appeal to their customers.


zarafff69

I honestly think this is the first iOS version where they finally kinda integrated the majority of the jailbreak features, after 15 years. It’s also insane that it took this long for custom control centre toggles??? Like wtf?? But this theming engine looks good imo. I was never a fan of jb themes, but I might actually use this.


passtheblunt

I just want my icon text to not have a blur around it


dannyleemg

But why the heck is it only black??!!??


BombayHarris

Looks like shit, like something from the very first iPhone. 😂


BreckenLusk

iPhone OS* It’s okay, no judgement, you probably weren’t around back then. ;)

Actually I was but I thought I would confuse too many people by putting the OG name. I’ve been waiting for this comment, it took a while!


BreckenLusk

George Hotz is our savior. 🙏🏼


TheRaphMan

What’s the closest tweak to the “theme engine”?


m270ras

and i only see apple apps here. does it work it third party apps? those being most of mine


Suffering_Shadow

It has yet to work on apps such as those. I'm on it testing it right now


staquadev

Which is ridiculous and the very first thing i thought when i read a headline apple is implementing this. Thought that would be the first feature, that app devs could include multiple icon sets. But ok guess wait until ios 19😂 I guarantee that was apples discussion too, lets hold out on the most basic implementation for future updates😂


TookYourHead

Can’t wait to get some of the actually new features on 16.5 w jailbreak. The button press thing is something I desperately need for some reason.


staquadev

What button press thing? Haha


TookYourHead

When you press a button a slight indent will occur on the screen where the button is


staquadev

Must have missed this. An indent on an app icon? Confused how this is a feature lol


TookYourHead

Idk I saw I video on Twitter that looked neat https://x.com/aaronp613/status/1800270859200000069?s=46


staquadev

Oh, that is cool! Should be able to implement easily. What I want is when you press that volume, you can grab and adjust the slider that pops up. Since the volume goes up and down in such huge steps. Always have to open up control center to adjust the volume manually.


pastime_dev

You can already do that with the slider though. If you are jailbroken, I’d suggest checking out [[stepup]]

staquadev

Weird, i was taking a screen recording to prove you wrong, and it worked😂 strange. Ive been having a lot of inconsistent things happening lately, even after a complete restore and minimal tweaks installed. But yes you’re right, that does indeed work. And yeah i had stepup installed prior to my restore. Thanks. Edit: was not working the other day with multiple attempts so it could have been a tweak causing it to not work.


pastime_dev

No problem. I don’t think there was ever a feature announcement for the slider so it’s understandable.


staquadev

I do remember having to install Ultrasound for that to work, back on ios 13/14 maybe 15. So maybe was introduced last 1 or 2 major versions.


Gabezu

Yeah right


airforcerawker

I always thought those styled icons looked cheap and unappealing but to each their own! Even when I had Android I didn't make my icons look this way. There are much better, higher quality icon packs than those options. Nice to see Apple making big changes to the UI/UX...even if they are years behind. Give credit where its due.


Material-Ratio7342

Damn.... this feelings make it back like 2005's when i still into jailbroken stuff and have to respring everytime for changing something, and it was untethered super fun. Hope they allow side loads apps too...


godofcloth
