1. Segue: (Free | BigBoss)

Well it is one of the best when it comes to adding a Slideshow of Photos to your iOS Stock Photo apps, for those who are thinking that Apple has given such a feature, but they also should consider that there aren’t much effects available when it comes to stock, this Tweak allows you to do alot more than just Handful animations.

2. StopSend: (Free | Private)

In my opinion, this is one of the best tweak, especially for those who are irritated because of the Auto-Correct. So, if you don’t want to send more of the Embarrassing messages to your Friends, Install StopSend. This Tweak will disable the Send button as long as any of the Auto-Correct Prompt is active

3. SleekCode: (Free | BigBoss)

This tweak was originally written for iOS 7, but it works perfectly on iOS 8 too, simple it allows you to Customize your Lock Screen, not much of gimmicks,but it allows you to add more Blurness, Alpha effects, Hide components in Lock Screen etc.

6. TapSpring: (Free | RCRepo)

One can easily respring by navigate to Settings > Respring8, however, there are those who needs to Respring the device time and again, because of different tweaks and stuff. If they think that Respring like this is a long way, then fear not, cause TapSpring tweak does the job in only a single tap. The tweak is still in Beta stage, but it works

7. CalcBase: (Free | BigBoss)

This is a very useful tweak for all those, who changes the method of Operations, beneficial for Students, Researchers etc. It allows you to easily switch between Decimal, Hex, Binary, Octa etc,

8. CroppingScreen: (Free | BigBoss)

In this era, taking a screenshot is one of the important task of all times, Although, every Smartphone has a way to take a Screenshot, in iDevices, you can Press the Home + Power button to take it, this tweaks add a little more to it. It allows you to select the part of screen you want to capture, instead of taking the whole screen.

9. Air Traffic Control (Free | BigBoss)

Record FaceTime Calls on Mac OS X Yosemite – How to

Lets face it, Mac OS X along with iOS has alot of restrictions when it comes to sharing, even if you have to share screen of your iDevice on Mac or if you have to Record Screen of your iDevice on Mac. In past we have to rely on 3rd party apps to do such stuff, with the arrival of iOS 8, alot has changed as Apple has given alot of opportunities to do alot of custom things without the need of any 3rd party app. Now with the hep of iOS 8 and Mac OS X Yosemite, any user can easily Record iPhone screen using the OS X Yosemite and we will show you How to do it.

Among the plethora of communication apps like Skype, Facebook Video call, still Apple users are stuck with the FaceTime, the default Video Calling app in Mac OS X and iOS. In my opinion, default and Stock apps are better, cause they have more support and Apple support is precisely for Stock apps and stuff. FaceTime like any other Social Network, doesn’t allows you to see your calls once you send them, in such cases users always need a way to record some important calls and show them, in case of any emergency, afterwards.

Record FaceTime Calls on Mac OS X Yosemite:

Make sure your Mac is running OS X Yosemite.
Make Sure your iDevice is running iOS 8 or above
Connect your iDevice with Mac.
Launch QuickTime
In QuickTime, Navigate to File > New Movie Recording.
Along-Side the Red Button, click the Drop Down.
Select your iPhone as Camera and Microphone Source.
Now as soon as you receive a Call, Click the Record button before accepting the call.
Once you are done, click the Record button again to stop the recording
Enjoy

In iOS 7, you need to get a little in depth to make text size larger, Apple has given a little more convenience to the users and brought it out for more ease. Although most of the steps are same as in iOS 7, but still there are some steps minimized in it. The effect will be applied on the whole OS, not in just some particular apps.

The reason to change Text could be any among the thousands, I love large text because, you don’t have to pay much attention, because of some Visual impairments too, sometimes, the Font size of an app can make it a little teasing too.

Go to Settings.
Navigate to Display & Brightness.

Enjoy.
