WHAT IS CYDIA? WHAT IS CYDIA DOWNLOAD & CYDIA INSTALL? Lots questions. One post. A question most of iOS users has been asking, what is Cydia for iOS 5 or iOS 6 and what is jailbreak iOS 5 & iOS 6?
WHAT IS CYDIA?
Cydia is a third-party, independent installer application for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. Cydia is developed by Jay Freeman (Saurik) and it’s actually much similar to Apple’s app store. Cydia allows you to download tons of tweaks & utilities that you’ll need to make the best out of your iOS device. Cydia brings you many applications that can be downloaded either for free or for a small amount of money.
Why Cydia?
Because Cydia offers you what Apple doesn’t. For example, Apple doesn’t give you the ability to change themes of your iPhone. Every smartphone owner would always like to change his mobile theme. On Cydia, you can install a tweak called “Winterboard†which allows you to download and install themes on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.
Is Cydia safe?
Cydia is not 100% safe since almost every jailbreak app is approved on Cydia. This increases the chance of malicious apps getting through too. You should only download apps & tweaks from trusted repositories. Repositories like ModMyi and BigBoss are the safest ones. Oh, you don’t know what’s repositories?
Cydia structure
In case you have already got Cydia, you’ll need to know what’s inside it. Once you open Cydia, you’ll find 5 tabs, here’s everything you need to know:
Home â€" You can find here some applications sponsored, more Sources FAQ, account information and some important settings.
Sections â€" In this tab, you can see all apps divided into categories. You should just go in the category you need and look up for your tweak.
Changes â€" All updates and newly added programs can be found here. This tab is updated every time you open Cydia.
Manage â€" Allows you t omanage Cydia, remove programs, add sources and repositories and have access to all storage.
Search â€" That’s the tab where you can search for a tweak â€" only if you got the name.
