Get New Dynamic Wallpapers On iOS 7 With iDynamic Cydia Tweak

As we all know, Android comes with live wallpapers and it is a great feature for those who want their device to look unique. Taking some inspiration from Google, Apple introduced Dynamic Wallpapers in iOS 7 which essentially are live wallpapers.

Although users are loving the new kind of wallpapers what is unfortunate is the limited number of styles available. In fact all the dynamic wallpapers feature the same ball-pattern but are available in a set of colours to make each of them look unique. It would have been better had Apple allowed adding more and different styles of dynamic wallpapers, which is not the case.

But wait, now you can get a couple of different styles of dynamic walls provided your device is jailbroken. iDynamic is the name of a new tweak which is available for free and allows adding new-pattern dynamic wallpapers to supported devices running iOS 7. To download the tweak go to Cydia, and search for iDynamic. Or you may also look for the package under the Changes section.

 

How To Use iDynamic On iOS 7

• Once you have installed iDynamic, respring your device and then launch the app via its icon from the home screen. By default some of the patterns are available for free. To get a glimpse of how a particular pattern would look, simply tap on the same and you will be presented with 6 different colour styles of the same pattern.

• To apply a particular pattern tap on the ‘Apply’ button present on the top right corner (see the button on the top right corner in the image above). On doing so the app will notify you about the successful application of the new pattern and would require a respring.

• After the respring, open the Wallpaper and Brightness section under Settings. Tap on the Dynamic Wallpapers section and select the colour you want to apply. This will immediately apply the new dynamic wallpaper you added using iDynamic.

NOTE: Although you have applied a new pattern from iDynamic, the Dynamic Wallpaper section will display only the stock wallpapers and not the new pattern. But when you tap on any of the stock wallpapers, the new added pattern will be displayed.

Alongside the free wallpapers, iDynamic also contains a bunch of paid patterns all of which can be unlocked for $1.99. A single new pattern would cost $0.99.

If you like customizing your Apple device to bits, this is one great tweak to have for free. As far as the use goes it does not affect the performance when a custom pattern is applied, however you should keep in mind Dynamic/Live wallpapers drain your battery faster than static ones.

The only downside of this application is that the stock wallpapers are replaced by the new dynamic wallpapers and they are not added to the library.
