Looking to spruce up the iOS 7 lock screen? Ascend brings a new option to jailbreakers, with a flat unlock slider bar and redesigned passcode screen. The new look meshes nicely with iOS 7 (and iOS 8 for that matter), and includes transparent blur effects.
Ascend is even compatible with other jailbreak tweaks including Forecast, Convergence Lite, CustomCover, AndroidLockXT and Stride 2. The tweak is designed for complete simplicity and usability, with a touch of nostalgia.
To install Ascend, the jailbroken device must be running iOS 7.1.x. Besides a master toggle, Ascend settings make it possible to customize the blur radius. Users can also enable Dark Mode and revert the passcode keypad to the default iOS 7 circles.
Ascend is available from the BigBoss repo on Cydia for $1.00. Jailbreak iOS 7.1.x with Pangu to start customizing iOS. Check here for instructions on how to jailbreak iOS 7.0.x with evasi0n 7. You can also find out how to purchase and install Cydia tweaks with this guide.
