5 apps you should get after jail breaking.
If you're one of the people who's given into the general pressure of jail breaking your device, fed up of hearing "why don't you just jail break it?" or "oh, you have to jail break it to do this", then you are most likely in the same position I was in about a month or so ago. I sat at my desk, with what was now a jailbroken ipad mini thinking, 'what now?'. All of a sudden the people who forced me into jail breaking my device became very reluctant to tell me what to do next, so I asked my good friend Google. Sound a bit familiar? Read on and I'll tell you the first 5 things you need to download.
Just before I get started I should point out that to download the apps, just search for them in Cydia. Anyway, in no particular order...
5) Auxo
2) Springtomize 2

5) Auxo
I don't exactly dislike the way the iOS handles multitasking, but having to hold down the icons until the little red minus sign appears is a bit tedious. Auxo creates a simply stunning alternative, in which you can simply swipe to remove apps from the multitasking bar. Genius!
4) Swipe Selection
Swipe Selection is one of those tweaks that makes you wonder why Apple didn't think of it. Personally I don't mind the general typing experience on iOS, but if one thing does annoy me, it's having to go back to correct a spelling or something, and having to battle with the horrible magnifying glass. Luckily, there is somebody on the planet with a few more brain cells than Apple, and they made it so you can scroll through the text by swiping left and right on the keyboard. Crisis averted.
3) NoNewsIsGoodNews
When it comes to the appearance of my home screen, I'm very OCD. I like things in folders and organised. The one thing I can't bare to see is the empty news stand sitting in the corner of my screen, just wasting space. This thing can't be removed, or even put it an folder! Sure it's not the cleverest Cydia apps, but NoNewsIsGoodNews makes me life that little bit easier.
2) Springtomize 2
Often described as 100 Cydia tweaks in 1, Springtomize 2 is a necessity. Allowing users to customise a wide range of options such as lock screen, home screen, multi-touch gestures and more, it gives your device that personal touch.
1) Accelerate
We are all obsessed with the speed of our device, and after jail breaking, I wanted to make sure my iPad was faster. I soon stumbled across this app which literally speeds up the opening and closing of apps. It makes your device feel significantly faster. To put things in perspective, my iPad is more than fast enough for me, and I'm only on Ferrari speed setting!
