The jailbreak tweak Zeppelin has been updated to support iOS 7. The tweak allows users to change their carrier logo into a different icon. Zeppelin comes pre-installed with over 15 custom made logos such as Batman, the Autobots or the Apple symbol. Themers can also upload their own icons to the Zeppelin library or download third-party packages from Cydia.

There are plenty of Zeppelin custom packages in Cydia to choose from, but most of them have not been updated for iOS 7. However, that will probably begin to change now that an iOS 7 jailbreak is available.

You can download Zeppelin for free from the ModMyi repo in Cydia, or update it by going to the Changes section. Zeppelin is a fun way to customize your jailbroken device. It is also very easy to use and highly recommended for iPhone users who are tired of staring at the boring AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon or other carrier logos on their phone.

Apple is continuing the holiday spirit by kicking off its 12 Days of Gifts event in the U.S. for the first time. The 12 Days app is available for free to iOS 7 users in the App Store. The app allows users to download one free gift a day, beginning December 26 to January 6.

Apple kicked off Day 1 by offering a free download of Justin Timberlake's iTunes Festival EP. The EP includes live recordings of "SexyBack” and "Take Back the Night,” and two live videos, “True Blood” and “TKO.” The free download will only last 24 hours before it will be replaced by another gift.

You can now track Santa on any iOS device thanks to the free NORAD Tracks Santa app. NORAD began keeping track of Santa's Christmas route in 1958, when it it took over from its predecessor CONAD who began the tradition in 1955. The NORAD app allows families to easily keep track of Santa Claus as he delivers presents all over the world.

The NORAD Tracks Santa app includes all kinds of history and facts about Santa. For example, according to the "Secret Santa Files," Santa usually begins his trip at the International Date Line in the Pacific Ocean and travels west before finishing up in South America. The app also features videos and an elf video game for children to play.
