Jailbreak Only: IconSpiral - A Better Way To Display SpringBoard Icons?
by Joe White
December 13, 2010
IconSpiral is a new jailbreak tweak that is currently in its beta stage of development. Once installed, IconSpiral will display app icons in a huge spiral, which users can then navigate through.
Currently, the tweak is very buggy, and still needs more work. If you want to give it a spin, you'll first need to uninstall all SpringBoard-affecting tweaks and apps (such as Barrel, Parallax, and Infiniboard). Once you've done that, add this repo in Cydia: http://www.aaron.ms/repo. You'll then be able to install IconSpiral.
We've embedded a video (below) of IconSpiral in action. Personally, I wouldn't go anywhere near this tweak - at least not yet. To be honest, I'm quite happy with the way Apple designed the SpringBoard.
However, IconSpiral is available in Cydia if you want to check it out. And, if you do, be sure to post your thoughts in the comments below. Thanks to FunkySpaceMonkey for spotting this.
