I'm happy to announce my very first tweak, Immortalizer!
This tweak allows you to run apps in the background (or foreground) indefinitely, even if the device is locked. Works on iOS 14-16. Now available on Havoc repo!
Key features:
- Trick apps they are in the foreground even if they are in the background
- Prevent apps from being suspended in the background
- Works well even if the device is locked
- Has icon indicators and toast, kinda similar to bakgrunnur
- Notification works (my favorite), because normally when an app is in the foreground, it doesn't show notifications. With Immortalizer, you have the option to turn on notifications on app that is immortalized (foregrounded)
History:
I was a fan of a tweak called bakgrunnur, but unfortunately it hasn't been updated since iOS 15. Since then, I've been waiting for a true foregrounding tweak that works well even if the device is locked and has indicators.
Then I decided to get into tweak development about a month ago. I tried my best to learn, even though I knew nothing about iOS development, and despite learning resources being scarce (and there isn't much any activity on jailbreaking these days honestly), in attempts to update bakgrunnur for iOS 15 and above and move on. Unfortunately, lots of things have changed since iOS 15, it would be a pain to update it so I just decided to write my own from scratch.
And, here we are!
Since this is my first release, I will be open sourcing it.
Originally, I said I was just going to mess with tweaks and move on, but I decided I will continue my journey on jailbreaking scene, since I enjoyed it! Also, in hopes that the community will stay alive. I might be a bit late on the scene, but I think it's better than not being a part of it at all.
Technically this isn't the first tweak I have attempted to create as I have started tweak development. I've created cool and weird stuffs as I have learned, and I am still learning. Though stay tuned on the next tweak I will be releasing ;)
I spent like 18 hrs a day to create this, over the course of 2 weeks. If you liked this tweak, consider supporting me :)
