What iOS 7 has "copied" from the jailbreak

ios 7 cydia

iOS 7 has brought a number of incredible news, and some that we still have to know when we see the final version. One day before the keynote I wrote an article where I gave my opinion on what Apple should take from the jailbreak, I proposed only 3 things, which I considered to be essential at this point and it seems that I got all three right, although we also have some others.

Many of the novelties presented with iOS 7 were already owned by jailbroken users, We are going to see below which ones "coincide", or as some say "which ones he has blatantly copied".

SBSettings

We finally have the long-awaited and needy toggles in iOS 7They are not perfect, they are not customizable for now, but we had less before. This idea comes from SBSettings or Auxo, as you like, I indicate SBSettings because it was the first, then there have been many more, but SBSettings is the original. Thanks Apple, we've been asking for it for five years.

CardSwitcher

8E3F013C-3418-4B89-8FFD-77AEF3C02FA5

Again another existing modification, letter-shaped multitaskingThere are several in Cydia that do exactly the same or similar: CardSwitcher, Multifl0w ... Apple has improved it and added some very interesting animations, but we had already seen the idea both in Cydia and in other platforms. The way to close the apps also reminds us of Auxo.

LiveClock

Clock-iOS-7

Now the clock icon gives us the real time, as Cydia LiveClock did for years at the cost of wasting battery, let's hope that Apple has managed to do it without increasing battery consumption.

Parallax and 3DBoard

The e3D effect that the system has In the devices with more power we had already seen it in iOS by the hand of 3dBoard, which created a depth effect on the Springboard, shameless copy? In this case it seems clear that it is. The same is said of the battery, hopefully it is optimized, because Parallax used a lot.

We can also put panoramic wallpapers like Parallax allowed us a long time ago.

Auto App Updater

Now applications update themselves, another great novelty that Cydia users have been using for a couple of years.

BlurriedNCBackground for Notification Center

photo-11

The nice blur effect that has been added to iOS 7, where everything It is translucent and shows your wallpaper We already had it in the notification center for a long time with BlurriedNCBackground for Notification Center, we cannot say that it is a copy, but it is the same idea.

Infinifolders

Folders-iOS-7

Having a Games folder and a Games 2 folder was one of the absurd things that Apple forced us to with the limitation of icons per folder, with infinitefoders We could put those we wanted vertically with iOS 7 we can do it horizontally, there are pages within folders.

Others

And there are many more:

  • Animations when unlocking type UnlockFX
  • The possibility of adding more tabs in Safari as we did with Tabs +
  • Notification Center on Lock Screen with Bulletin
  • Swipe gestures to go to the previous menu with Swipe gestures
  •  The unified Safari bar with Safari Unibar

… And some more that I should forget, can you help us to enlarge the list?

    So Apple's have the Jailbreak done on their iPhones. I've always thought that if you can jailbreak it is because they want to, and now I'm sure.
    Salu2.

  2.   santiago said

    Excuse me Gnzl, what is the gesture of swiping to go to the previous menu?

    1.    franxu said

      If you are in a Site and you want to go back to the previous one, you just have to slide your finger from the frame to the right, you don't have to go to the up arrow.

      1.    Santiago said

        Thank you very much, I happened to check it ... although I see that it does not work in many for example in Whats or the calendar.

  3.   andres said

    Aja and what is the problem ?, so many years complaining about why apple does not put a sbsettings, that more apps enter the folders, etc etc etc, then they do it and they are already copying ... do not update and now.

    1.    chris said

      I agree with you I have seen many pages criticizing ios 7 that because it copies a lot of what we find in cydia, those who understand them are crying out for me to change ios and now that I did they criticize, they make comments like this should have ios, this should put apple and now that he did criticize those people who no longer speak for speaking.

      It makes me much better that apple put those improvements into it and so the developers who upload to cydia will be able to improve what apple has done very well.

    What I do not tend to, is how they have not yet added the Widgets (surely due to battery issues?), I say it, because I believe, that it is the last 'basic' that currently needs to be added ...

    1.    Juan said

      Don't be offended but it's because filthy widgets are useless at all, not to mention they look awful.

  5.   franxu said

    Cydia Parallax does not create a depth effect, what it does is to be able to put panoramic backgrounds, when you move the page the background moves, (like Android). The one that made the effect I think is called 3dBoard

  6.   gsrivera said

    I miss the photos of the contacts in the agenda! (Cyntact) for me it is still a pending detail.
    Greetings.

    1.    franxu said

      well, I think that in the following betas they will be, Favorites already includes them and spotlight as well.

    Now to wait for them to do a complete ios7 in cydia ... and that it consumes less battery..yupi

    Well, it was about time, iOS 7 looks excellent, although the visual quality of some current icons will be missed.

    It will be that I am the only one who used it, it seems, but in all the blogs that I have read since iOS 7, few have commented on the absence of "copying" which for me is the only tweak for which I jailbreak, Zephyr, I do not understand as they have not put that, when I saw in the video that the presenter gave Home twice to multitask…. I was quite disappointed, it is more with the new «apple SBSettings», it will be very difficult for us to use zephyr in a future jailbreak, since it is the same gesture.

    1.    gnzl said

      Zephyr is not "intuitive", so Apple will never put it (in my opinion)

      1.    Avengerofjustice said

        Of course .. it is not "intuitive" to close the window by sliding only up, nor to open the multitasking only by sliding from below ... don't be a bad gonza ..

    2.    Danny said

      I agree with Carlos, I installed the Jailbreak for that and some other tweak such as sbsettings, wraparound, ifile, icleaner pro, and I will install it again for iapfree xP

  18.   John_Doe17 said

    SwipeBack is also one of the things that I was going to miss in the absence of Jailbreak

  19.   Carlos Alfredo T-kilaa said

    The truth is appreciated a reason to leave the jailbreak

  20.   Pedrofan said

    And all this with the most tacky design that humanity has seen since the 70s.

  21.   javixi83 said

    I don't know what the tweak is called in cydia ... but when you have the iPhone locked, you can delete the notification from the lock screen if you delete it from the notification center

  22.   alfon_sico said

    I think it's called LSmusicmanager, it basically consists of having in the Lockscreen the time bar of the song playback instead of the volume

    In iOS7 it is present

  23.   Daniel said

    I am registered as a developer, I try to install the ipsw of ios 7 beta, almost at the end it gives me an unknown error (-1) and it no longer lets me install it, does anyone know why? or how to fix it

  24.   july val pi said

    Well, since they start to copy, I have enough, but that Apple has to start copying tweaks from years ago, cloth, I think that says it all.

  25.   Daniel santana said

    This leaves us told that from the beginning in the offices of Apple jailbrake is used

  26.   discover said

    Do you know if iOS7 includes "non-invasive" calls? For me it is a pain to be writing and suddenly the call skips when it could be notified with a bar.

  27.   Mauricio said

    I remove the option to publish on twitter or facebook from the notification center ...

  28.   Oswaldo Martin Aguirre Vazquez said

    Not reason enough (at least for me) to quit the jailbreak! It offers me many more things cydia than the full iOS 7

  29.   Jobs said

    Just one question, why -copied- appears in quotes, is it because they are actually stolen ideas rather than copied? Can you imagine the "advances" of apple if the JB did not exist?

  30.   amaurysv said

    Question: the applications will update themselves, but I would like to know if that will include games of more than 1 gb? ...

  31.   thangorodrim said

    It is true that in the contacts application will appear the option to block calls, messages, etc. from contacts that we do not want to call us, as I have read on several web pages?
    Thank you

  32.   Do not be fooled said

    now it will turn out that all these changes come from cydia ... hahaha I am leaving! they can be convinced as they want but right now google is way ahead of apple… .. and what is to come!

    1.    holy God said

      If it goes so far ahead, why are you here? I don't even spend to watch android. The problem for Android lovers is that they know that it is rubbish and they always feel second. Then they can only criticize.
      Most of the tweaks were in cydia before android, so you could say that android copied cydia.

      BUT WAIT because android invited SUPER useful things, like photosphere, and face unlock. Pfff those are things that really work (when android lovers are going to realize that they fill them with useless things)

  33.   Your mother is missing said

    Actually I do not disagree with any of you who have commented ... What bothers me is that Apple does not create its own ideas and is taking ideas from third parties yet they do not realize that without jailbrack iphone it would be a cheap copy of android

  34.   Shawn_Gc said

    Gentlemen, I hope you will solve me if it is on my iPhone 5 alone or with everyone, I have been with iOS 7 for two days and I am delighted, unless the eBay application fails to start 🙁 which I used the application a lot, I hope you confirm if it works Please, another thing is the «fast keyboard function» I have many since I use the bug a lot to write, IT DOESN'T WORK for me either.
    These are the two drawbacks that I have so far and that alomjeor threw me towards the is 6: ((with a lot of sadness but the truth is that I use eBay a lot if you give me some joy gentlemen !!
    PS: Notice that in safari, when going back or in front of the page with sliding your finger to both sides we have (: good

    I think it was a great advance by apple, maybe improve the performance of the battery…. Although also when the ios 7 comes out (now it is in beta) the jailbreak may come out and there won't be much to modify, on my part I will do the JB to see what to improve greetings… .if you want to know what awaits us in the event Apple (probably September 10) check the page http://www.marcianophone.com and you will know about rumors iphone 5s, iphone 5c, ipad mini 2, and ipad 5g ... also look for it on youtube as marcianophone
