    In case you've missed out on the new jailbreak tweaks Cydia has seen, this recap will highlight the tweaks we've shown you this week. These are in no specific order.

    1. Tempus - $1.99

    Tempus is a new jailbreak tweak that improves the way iOS lets us control our music library from our lock screen. Providing us with our full music library on our lock screen, more intuitive music controls, and a bonus brightness slider, Tempus is a must-have for anyone that listens to a lot of music on their iOS device. Tempus can be used from the lock screen, so there’s no need to even unlock your device to find all the music you want to play, and it supports music filtering too. Tempus uses swipe gestures for operating its various features and it integrates nicely into the lock screen. Check it out!



    2. Reminders+ – FREE

    Reminders+ is a new free jailbreak tweak that allows you to pin any of your reminders from the Reminders application on your lock screen so that they’re always in your face. Normally, reminders are very quiet in iOS, only showing up in the Notification Center and not alerting you until you’ve asked to be alerted. However, the best way to be reminded of things is to constantly have them in sight. Since we visit our lock screens more often than Notification Center, Reminders+ is a great way to remember things. You can add reminders manually by holding down on them from the Reminders application and adding them to your bulletin.



    3. Carnitine – FREE

    Carnitine is a new free jailbreak tweak that allows for application-based Wi-Fi enabling. If your Wi-Fi is disabled, Carnitine will allow you to automatically re-enable Wi-Fi when the application you open requires it. This makes it easy to re-enable your Wi-Fi when you have it turned off without having to exit the application you just opened and going into Settings to re-enable Wi-Fi. Carnitine remembers your setting so that if you ever turn off Wi-Fi in the future, and open the application that needs Wi-Fi again, Wi-Fi will automatically re-enable itself so that the application requiring Wi-Fi can do what it needs to do.

      Yes the tweak recaps are great, but the theme of the week needs revived. Themers generally put as much work into creating a theme as developers do in designing and building a tweak. There just needs to be more of a balance between the two in my opinion.

      Well its obvious that your new to jailbreak ( no offense ) or else you wouldnt be calling reminder plus or carnitine good tweaks... You should check the OLD yet awesome tweaks like intelliscreenX and many others

      Yet they don't seem to get a mention on the homepage..

      I'm sure if Anthony is too busy to write about themes a well known theme artist would be happy to write a small blog/article each week or month (I'd say month as there is not enough "good" themes out each week) about what they think is good and bad...

      Lol no one can appear to agree on a specific theme.

      We have included links to the articles explaining the tweaks, so you can read about them. But you do have to search in Cydia to download them.

      Not every jailbreak release is going to be the most impressive thing we've ever seen in the world, but it's still great that the developers are thinking of ways to change the operating system in a way that they see as advantageous.

      The goal of an open store like Cydia is to bring to life third party ideas that we couldn't do with a stock iPhone. You just can't expect an IntelliScreenX with every jailbreak tweak release.

      But why can't themes be showcases like tweaks are? Tweaks are brought into the limelight, while themes are almost always never mentioned. Besides, no one has to agree on a specific tweak in order for it to be showcased. There's just a huge imbalance between the two.

      I'm not saying they can't be.
