Nice find, I got Movie Cat HD for free from them too. Already bought the iphone version years ago and it was totally worth paything for I just hate buying a second app just to play on iPad

The Room is down to 99 cents. I'm gonna buy it.

Those expire soon. So I bet it'll be changed soon.

The Room is phenomenal other than it's super short and leaves you with a cliff hanger. I'm not sure how quick a sequel is coming either.

Ironically, my game is similar in most ways but at least I tie up all my original plot threads before opening new ones.

Cliffhanger? Ew. Is a sequel confirmed? I think I'm okay with it being short since it's supposed to be really good and 99 cents is cheap as hell.

I see the 99 cents in the store, but there's also a $1.99 full unlock iAP? What are they trying to pull?

I just looked into this. The iphone version says it's a "free-to-try app" but is 99 cents... and it shows that there's an IAP to unlock the full game for an additional 1.99. So iPad is $1 and phone is $3.

It's weird because it wasn't cheap to make if you played the demo but my research showed they did little marketing to promote it and don't seem to have a lot invested in it either. Maybe they didn't expect the game of the year from Apple but it's still a better example of the kind of experience I'd want on iOS.

I have a vita and as much as it suffers the games are clearly much richer and deeper experience than anything I see on iOS and I'm not much into the throwaway runners/match-3/etc. games that keep on popping up in the store.

It looks like a demo version - it "plays up to 50 games."

Does the Room play like Crimson Room?

I love telling people this. In The Room, all you do for 2 hours is open a box. But I promise, it's one helluva a box....

It's the full version. I think they mean you can be playing 50 games at the same time.

Nice, hopefully have time to jailbreak this afternoon (after backing up everything). It'll be nice to have the customizability I miss from my Android phone with the power/apps of the iPhone

Brightness/wifi/data/flashlight toggles in the notification center, BiteSMS, more apps per page, folders in folders/multiple pages in folders, f.lux, make Chrome the default browser, make Google Maps the default maps app, get rid of Newsstand. Those are the main ones for me. There are also fun tweaks that change appearance or add animations, and, of course, skins and themes.

What hack lets you change the default maps app? I think I want that.

Maps Opener. It only does Google Maps though, in case you wanted to use Nokia or something.

There isn't nearly as much of a reason to jail break as there used to be, but it's still worth it for just a handful of apps. Like was mentioned in this thread, biteSMS is probably worth it alone. If you've jail broken previously, I'm sure you know all the go-to apps on Cydia.

I personally use biteSMS, activator, SBSettings, Auxo, iFile and a few others I'm forgetting. But like I said, there isn't as much of a reason to jail break anymore, but I still feel the above apps are worth the five minutes it takes.

Haha, I didn't catch that

I'm actually about to edit my /etc/hosts to see if I can make search.yahoo.com redirect to duckduckgo. Bing decided to put a huge floating header in the search results a couple of days ago (WHY) and google now shows pictures and number of google circles for the author of every stupid blog post. Maybe I could just use yahoo, but it's really upsetting that the search experience is getting worse and worse.

Thanks for the heads up on the broken weather app. I actually really like it for a quick check before heading out in the morning. I'll hold off for a fix.

Is it sad that the thing I most look forward to is a friggin toggle widget for airplane mode, wifi, and audio (my case covers the hardware switch with a flap, widget is easier)?

Also, anyone have any recommendations for an iphone (JB'd?) equivalent for Zedge? Loved that on Android. Browse ringtones, DL right from the app/site, instantly use as ringtone (to my knowledge only way to get (free) ringtones for iphone are to DL them to pc, add to itunes, sync phone, then select)
