iOS 7 Style Lockscreen For iPhone, iPod, & iPad Running iOS 6: Ayra Cydia Tweak

Posted by Badri Tek on 08:18 with No comments
iOS 7 beta is already out for developers and Apple is busy releasing the successive beta iterations which bring along a number of performance improvements and bug fixes. If you happen to have even the slightest of the clues about iOS 7, you would know that it has an overhauled interface. The app icons have been redesigned and it comes with plenty of new features including a new lock screen, control center, and multitasking.

The new lock screen does not have the slider anymore, and instead the whole lock screen needs to be dragged in order to unlock the device. Also one will be able to toggle Wi-Fi, location services, flashlight, bluetooth, Do Not Disturb, and other features right from the lock screen using the Control Center.

Disappointingly the beta versions are only meant for developers and for the actual masses, the iOS will be released this fall. This means that most of you have not tried the iOS 7 but you will be eager to. Users who are running iOS 6 on their jailbroken Apple devices and want to get a feel of the new lock screen can download Ayra which is available on Cydia for $1.99.

NOTE: The new lock screen replacement Ayra does not resemble iOS 7’s lock screen completely, but it does feel like one.

How To Use Ayra Cydia Tweak

Once installed, respring your device and immediately you will notice an all new lock screen. The slider along with the background will look faded but much more nice.

If you slide your finger down from the status bar, a notification center like overlay would drop down wherein you have toggles for features like Wi-Fi, location, bluetooth, orientation lock, do not disturb, etc. At once only five toggles are displayed, so you will have to swipe through the pages to see the remaining toggles.

Users who do not like the sequence of toggles on the lock screen, can change the same from the tweak’s settings page located inside the stock Settings app.

As far as the conclusion is concerned, the tweak really makes you feel like you are using a different iOS version but at the same time the price is a bit too much considering the features it offers.
