Jailbreakers who are in the market to make their iPhone’s Control Center interface much more powerful can take advantage of a newly releasedjailbreak tweakcalledBetterCCby iOS developerMiguelaka95.
The name is far from a misnomer, as BetterCC truly makesControl Centerbetter by giving users the ability to customize different parameters ranging from the interface’s layout, aesthetics, and module sizes, among other things.
As shown in the screenshot examples above, BetterCC can do some pretty crazy things with what would otherwise be a stock-looking Control Center interface on a jailbroken iPhone.
In one screenshot, we see BetterCC’s weather information capabilities, which include an animated weather background much like what you’d see in theWeatherapp, and a sizable Weather widget to match.
In the other two screenshots, we see a completely resized media module and custom layouts for Control Center’s many different shortcut and toggle buttons.
Once installed, BetterCC adds a dedicated preference pane to the Settings app where users can configure their unique Control Center interface however they want:
Options here include:
Control Center is to my iPhone what my hand is to my arm. In other words, I consider it to be wholeheartedly essential because it offers rapid access to some of my most important shortcuts and toggles.
With BetterCC, Control Center becomes even more essential because I can tailor the interface to suit my needs and add pertinent information about Music and Weather that aren’t usually as enshrined in the original user interface as they are in the enhanced one.
If you’re interested in going hands-on with BetterCC for yourself, then the tweakis available for free from the Havoc repositoryvia your favorite package manager app. The tweak fully supportsjailbrokeniOS 14.2-14.8 devices and only partially supports iOS 14.0-14.2 devices due to an issue with the media module.
Please note that BetterCC isn’t compatible with iPadOS.
