Cydia Tweak: MiniPlayer Puts Music Controls Anywhere In iOS
by Dom Esposito
May 7, 2013
MiniPlayer is a new Cydia tweak that allows you to have small music player anywhere within iOS. Based on a concept by Sentry, this little music player takes the form of the mini player found in iTunes 11.
This tweak will allow a small music player to float on top of anything you’re doing. Of course, you do have the option to hide the it when you’re in need of some screen space, but MiniPlayer will even follow you to the lock screen.

Within the Settings app, you’ll find options to hide MiniPlayer when the music is paused and also prevent it from appearing on the lock screen. Alternatively, you can set up an Activator method to hide MiniPlayer. Overall, this tweak works great and it has been very stable in our testing. Currently, MiniPlayer is available in the BigBoss repository for $2.00 and is compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. This tweak is an extension of PowerMusic MiniPlayer, and if you already own that tweak, MiniPlayer will be available to you at a discounted price.
