The iPad's great, but for some reason there are a few built-in iPhone apps Apple decided to keep away from the "magical and revolutionary" tablet. If you have an iPhone and iPad, you'll know that your smart phone's Calculator, Clock, Compass, Stocks, Weather and Voice Memos apps aren't built into the iPad version of Apple's mobile operating system, which is a bit of a shame (especially, I would say, with regards to the Clock app).
Following on the heels of the "Absinthe" Greenpois0n release, SiriToggles, a jailbreak tweak to expand Siri's capabilities, is scheduled to make it into the Cydia store very soon.
The jailbreak exploit that powers the Chronic Dev Team's Corona package has reportedly been patched in the latest beta version of iOS 5.1. Because of this, potential jailbreakers are advised to update to iOS 5.0.1 before it's too late, and avoid iOS 5.1 at all costs once it finally goes live.
Recludo is a new jailbreak tweak that is as simple as it is useful. Once installed, unlocking an iPhone or iPod touch when the music controls have been invoked will take users straight to the Music app, rather than to their Home screen.
ShakeToUnlock has recently received an update that adds support for iOS 5. The jailbreak tweak, which (as its name suggests) allows Apple fans to unlock their iPhone by shaking it, is currently available to download in the Cydia Store for free.
Though TapDeWiggle might sound rather a lot like the name of some obscure, urban dance track, it is in fact a jailbreak tweak that some Apple fans might find quite useful. In short, TapDeWiggle allows fans to exit wiggle mode without having to press the Home button: instead, touch any empty space, and those app icons will promptly stop jiggling and wiggling about.
A jailbreak tweak called “Motion” allows Apple fans to inject some life into their iPhone’s SpringBoard, and configure application icons to jump, shake, soar and slide in a number of different ways.
MapReminders is an upcoming jailbreak tweak which, once available, will allow Apple fans to set location-based reminders using API from the built-in Maps app. This means that, when setting your reminder, it'll be possible to browse a full map and pin point the exact location you want the Reminders app to take note of, rather than inputting an address or using one's current location.
A major update to the popular messaging jailbreak package biteSMS has recently launched in the Cydia Store. Furthermore, since the original launch of biteSMS 6, the package's developer has pushed out another update (6.1) that adds a couple more exciting features.
