When we receive a call, iOS offers us some actions: silence the call by pressing the power button once, or reject it by pressing it twice. There are also other options that appear on the device screen, such as setting a reminder to call later, or rejecting a call and sending a message indicating the reason. But, what would you think of an application that offer these options almost automatically and other options added? This is what CallController offers us, a tweak available from Cydia that has just been updated to be compatible with iOS 7 and the new iPhone 5s.
The tweak is available in the BigBoss repo, and although it is paid ($ 2,99) we have a week to test it before we have to pay for it, something that should prevail more in Cydia (not to mention the App Store). During that week, the functionality of the application is full, so it can be thoroughly tested. How does it work? The configuration is simple and is accessed from a new icon that appears on our springboard. A main switch activates or deactivates the tweak, and just below the options to configure different actions.
- While Face Down - What to do when receiving a call if the device is upside down.
- Flip Over: what to do when receiving a call and turn it upside down.
- Shaking: what to do when receiving a call and shaking the device.
- Home Button: what to do when receiving a call and pressing the home button.
In each of these situations, the options that we can configure are the following:
- No action: do nothing
- VoiceMail: reject the call and send it to voicemail (must have it activated)
- Busy signal: the caller will see that you communicate
- Mute Ringer: mute the call
There are two more menus with other options. In "General Settings" you can configure whether or not you want the icons to appear on the status bar and lock screen, in addition to configuring the sensitivity of the accelerometer, as well as the message that is sent when a call is rejected. In Extras you can activate other options, such as the possibility of delete calls from the log one at a time, configure auto-response in certain situations, such as when wearing headphones, and how to activate voice control. A tweak full of options, some of which are greatly missed and should be included as standard in iOS.

I install it and it gives me an error.
We apologize for the inconvenience, but Springboard has just crashed.
MobileSustrate / did not / cause this problem: It has protected you from it.
Come on, it gives me this error and tells me that it starts in Safe Mode.
Total disappointment!!!
some incompatibility may have found with another application
