BY Joe White on Thu May 24th, 2012
Just over a week ago, a great iOS concept hit the Web: fold-to-unlock, created by @AntonKudin, showed how an "unfolding" animation would lend itself perfectly to Apple's slide-to-unlock mechanism in the iOS. At the time, while calling for Apple to implement the feature in iOS 6 (a somewhat unrealistic proposition, one might add), I also speculated that the concept was exactly the kind of thing a savvy jailbreak developer would adopt, develop and release.
