Do you wish you could customize your iPhone’s interface, make Google’s Maps the default choice or use a third-party keyboard? You can do all of this and more if you jailbreak your iPhone and download the right apps. Jailbreaking is a process that modifies your iPhone to gain access to files and features Apple normally wouldn’t let you access. Just be aware that you’ll void your warranty. 

Once you’ve liberated your iPhone, you’ll want to check out Cydia, the jailbreak alternative to the App Store, to download all sorts of forbidden goodies. Make the most of your jailbroken iPhone with these 25 apps.

Auxo ($1.99)

Auxo gives you a new way to multitask in iOS, using live preview cards to show you what you were doing when you last opened an app. These cards can be closed just by swiping down. You can even close two apps at once. Swiping to the left gives you enhanced music controls, complete with larger album art, and you can also access settings shortcuts for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, screen brightness and more.
