 Apple Support page

Earlier this month, the new iOS 8.4 was released after the launch of the iOS 8.3 jailbreak. The iOS 8.3 later came with new fixes and updates such as support for the jailbreak app store Cydia, according to reports.

According to iDigital Times, the new iOS 8.4 comes with 30 new tweaks in the jailbreak app store. The new tweaks include the Acapella II, Amplify, Activator, Showcase, F.lux and Springtomize 3, among others.

These new tweaks can be installed on the iPhone and iPad devices at this time, according to Gotta Be Mobile. In addition, it is said that TaiG has just released a new tool to fix bugs that appeared in last week's update. Here are some of the features that come with the new tweaks.

iDigital Times reports that the new Amplify tweak comes with features that improve the Spotify app's functionality. Such features include the Sleep Timer, Quick Roll and the Force Show Status Bar.

The Activator tweak, on the other hand, comes with features that enable users to automate certain functions, such as using the volume controls to skip between songs.

Acapella II allows users to replace the buttons that appear on the media player with new gesture controls. This enables users to swipe in order to change songs.

Another new Cydia tweak is F.lux, which can remove the blue light hue that comes from the display screen. Gotta Be mobile said the new tweak can be installed by adding the "justgetflux.com/cydia" to Cydia.

Other new Cydia tweaks include Tiny Bar and Better Power Down. The devices that can support the iOS 8.4 jailbreak are Apple's iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, 5S, 5C, and the latest iPhone 6 and Plus devices. For iPad, iPad mini's 1<sup>st, 2<sup>nd, and 3<sup>rd generations are supported, including the iPad 2<sup>nd, 3<sup>rd, and 4<sup>th generations.
