Best Jailbreak 8.1.2 Cydia Tweaks, Top Tweak List for The iOS 8.1.2 TaiG Jailbreak - With no shortage of exciting jailbreak-related topics to cover over the past few weeks, iOS 8.1 Pangu jailbreak, iOS 8.1.1, 8.1.2 and TaiG’s latest jailbreak that fully supports the latest aforementioned 8.1.x firmwares, we’ve decided to transition into covering post-jailbreak content. The staff at Evasi0n Jailbreak felt that  now is the perfect time to share some of the coolest and best iOS 8.1.2 jailbreak tweaks currently available inside Cydia for all iOS 8-based iPhone, iPod and iPad models jailbroken by either Pangu for up to 8.1 or TaiG for iOS 8.1.2 and 8.1.1 with our incredibly awesome readers! After all, isn’t the primary reason the average jailbreaker takes on a feat such as jailbreaking his or her iOS-based device to personalize and completely customize the operating system of his or her liking by way the third-party tweaks, packages and apps distributed via Cydia? While intended to be rhetorical, we’ll answer the previous question regardless to further the point of how incredible Cydia tweaks truly are! Without tweaks, following the successful enabling of root access, to the average jailbreaker the process would mean nothing more than adding a shiny new ‘Cydia’ icon to their device’s springboard. To help prevent the aforementioned scenario from coming to pass, in addition to our previous Top 42 iOS 8 Cydia Tweaks list for the TaiG jailbreak, we’re excited to share the subsequent installment to said list.

Top iOS 8 Cydia Tweaks - Best TaiG iOS 8.1.2 Jailbreak Tweaks

Before jumping head-first into today’s awesome list of tweaks, it’s paramount that your device be jailbroken on iOS 8 though 8.1.2, either by Pangu for older iterations of 8.0.x and iOS 8.1 or TaiG for iDevices running 8.1.1 or the latest public firmware, being iOS 8.1.2. For those of you who have yet to jailbreak your iPod touch, iPad or iPhone, we highly recommend following either of our recent jailbreak guides: TaiG  for those running 8.1.2 and 8.1.1 or our slightly older, yet equally thorough and detailed, guide on jailbreaking 8.1.1 via Pangu, both of which are linked to in the previous sentence.

Also, as another prelude, we felt it necessary to pay homage to the popular jailbreak YouTuber iCrackUriDevice, who assisted in the curation of the top iOS 8.1.2 tweaks available in Cydia featured in today’s article.

Finally, without further delay, enjoy the below eight Best Cydia Tweaks for iOS 8.1.2, and follow them up with our previous list of the top 42 iOS 8 tweaks!

Top iOS 8.1.2 Cydia Tweaks For The TaiG 8.1.x Jailbreak: Best Cydia tweaks For iOS 8!

1. Dye is a free Cydia tweak that will add a splash of color to your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch’s UI (short for user interface) by applying what can be established as a system-wide ‘dye,’ if you will, which can be completely personalized to the end-user’s liking. Moreover, Dye can also be used to strictly enable the dark keyboard throughout all apps, if colors aren’t your thing.

2. ClassicDock brings back the days of old, adding the pre-flat iOS 6-style dock to any iOS 8-based device, the tweak is for those purists who feel as though some things from the “skeuomorphic” era are better left untouched.

3. Dim is a rather interesting tweak that was inspired by the belief that iOS 8 device just can’t go dark enough - have you ever used your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch late at night after having been in the dark for some time, avoiding unnecessary light pollution, only to pull your device out and be blinded by the sheer intensity of the display, even with the backlight turned all the way down? If you answered ‘yes’, definitely check out the free Dim 8.1.2 tweak as it artificially darkens a devices display by adding layers of varying transparency over the display.

4. Powerinformer is a relatively simplistic tweak that empowers the user to disable the typical twenty percent battery warnings that iOS loves to display every day, or even more frequently depending on your usage/charging lifestyle, while also enabling the configuration of custom alerts. Powerinformer not only allows you to specify when alerts start, but the tweak also enables the customization of the strings of text for battery notifications.

5. NoAudioRecorder is another small, but surprisingly useful 8.1.2 Cydia tweak, that completely disables what’s quickly become the bane of the vast majority of iDevice owners: the audio messages that are now built into the default iOS 8 Messages app, as they can easily be activated unintentionally on a regular basis. With the NoAudioRecorder tweak installed, the feature is completely disabled - to re-enable audio messages, simply uninstall the package.

6. Entering the realm of premium tweaks, VirtualHome8 is the successor to the long-standing favorite of the staff at Evasi0n Jailbreak: VirtualHome. Providing the same features as the tweak which established its foundation, VirtualHome8 allows the home button actions to be accomplished simply by resting one’s finger on the button, without physically pressing it. This insanely cool effect is accomplished by the metal sensor lining the fingerprint scanner which simply remains active when installed, recognizes various sequences and matches them to certain actions.

7. SmartTap acts as an alternative to the VirtualHome8 tweak by forcing a device’s touchscreen to remain open to receiving touch input when the device is locked allowing the user to simply double tap the screen to wake the device - a highly requested feature that previously remained exclusive to a small handful of Android devices, the most prominent of which being the Nexus 5 when rooted.

8. WatchBoard, the very tweak that we highlighted as a bonus package in our last article, shines again as a great solution for enabling an Apple Watch-esque interface for jailbroken devices running iOS 8 and higher. However, in light of its return in today’s article, this listing is a two-for-one, as those seeking a bit more customization at the expense of the ever-smooth animations WatchBoard offers, may take comfort in using Aeternum. The older Aeternum tweak is an equally-powerful, yet more flexible, premium package for accomplishing more or less the same effect.

As a concluding note, while it’s undeniably the best time to jailbreak, considering not only Pangu’s existence but also the brand new TaiG tool to jailbreak iOS 8.1.2 Untethered on all iPhone, iPad and iPod touches running the latest public firmware, it’s always a good idea to take advantages of the coolest tweaks sooner rather than later. Remember, you’ll need to be jailbroken on the latest iOS 8 firmware to install all of the aforementioned tweaks!
