iPhone jailbreakers looking for a new way to invoke an Activator action can grab ProximityActivator. This jailbreak tweak adds a proximity sensor swipe to the list of possible gestures in Activator. Once the gesture is assigned to an action, the action can be invoked by simply moving a hand or finger over the proximity sensor. This means no touching or swiping the display at all.
Once installed, ProximityActivator can be configured under Settings -> Activator -> Anywhere -> ProximityActivator. The gesture will only be active when the iPhone is unlocked and the display is powered on. ProximityActivator is a neat way to perform specific actions in iOS without touching the device.
ProximityActivator is available free of charge from the BigBoss repository on Cydia. To start customizing iOS, click here for instructions on how to jailbreak iOS 8.4 with TaiG, or learn how to jailbreak iOS 8.4 on Mac.
