Badge Customizer vs Boover

Have you ever wanted to change every aspect of your notification badges? Well the new Cydia tweak "Badge Customizer" lets you do just that. In late December 2012 there was a tweak release by Jonathan Winger Lang called "Boover", what Boover does is it changes the size and placement of your notification badges. Well "Badge Customizer" is almost a follow-up tweak with the same basic idea. Besides the fact that it has different developers and "Badge Customizer" can change the color, these tweaks are exactly the same. If I were to rate these two tweaks I would say "Badge Customizer" is better, just because it has more options to configure. There is one flaw in both of these tweaks tho, to choose the options you don't have a preview or anything of the such, you just have to try to imagine what the color or size may look like. The placement is pretty self explanatory, on Badge Customizer it has the options written in words, "top left, top center,top right, etc," Same goes for Boover. If I were to recommend one of these I would go with Badge Customizer. Now lets go onto the statistics.

Truthfully, I do not know why BigBoss accepted both of these tweaks that are obviously just the same with one little effect added to Badge Customizer. Also, I'm supervised Boover didn't already have the option of changing colors already built into it. Feel free to share your opinions below. And follow me @Jailbr3akHelper

StatusApps/A Concept By Me

     I know I have been gone for some-time now, but I have been hard at work making themes, making wallpapers, making concepts and of course school. Well this is the first concept I made, it is for an app-switcher alternative... Introducing "StatusApps" by @Jailbr3akHelper!!

-You would start out on your HomeScreen or in app.

-Then you would swipe to the right or left of your status bar, or whatever activation method you have set. -You will be shown this screen.

-After taping the status bar you will see your apps that are open, it will also show how many apps are open in the status bar.

-On page 2 you can add widgets and such

And that is StatusApps by @Jailbr3akHelper! I hope you like it.

Apple Should Turn This Lock Screen Concept Into A Reality For iOS 7 [Video]

The iOS lock screen is a boring place. It displays the time, any notifications you’ve received since you last unlocked your device, and a shortcut to the Camera app. But that’s it. When you compare it to Android’s lock screen, which now has support for all kinds of cool widgets, it’s clear there’s room for improvement.
One way Apple could start improving it for iOS 7 is with this awesome concept from Jean-Marc Denis.It simple, but it would make the lock screen a much more functional place. By introducing a pull-down tray with some basic toggles for frequently used features, users could toggle Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Airplane Mode, and Hotspot without even having to unlock their iOS Device. Check it out in the video below.

What would make this feature even better is if the user could customize the toggles in that tray. For instance, I hardly ever use the Hotspot feature on my iPhone, but I frequently find myself adjusting its brightness, or flicking Do Not Disturb on and off.
Apple has shied away from features like this in the past, but I think iOS users are beginning to want more from the company’s mobile platform. The basics have remained largely the same for the past five years, while rivals like Android have caught up and even overtaken in some areas.

What do you think?
