30+ Best Cydia Tweaks For iOS 11 – 11.3.1, iOS 11.4

Following a lull through the beginning of 2018, during which iOS power-users had begun to lose faith in the future of jailbreak, the release of Electra 1131 for iOS 11 – 11.4 gave the community a new lease on life. Not long after the new tool helped many a jailbreak aficionado unshackle their iOS device from Apple’s restrictive clutches, new jailbreak tweaks and apps came pouring down once again.

It’s been a while since then, and as we normally do around this time, we decided to compile a list of our favorite iOS 11-compatible packages from the Cydia store. Our primary criterion, as always, was to include newer, lesser-known tweaks, especially those made specifically for iOS 11 and its new features. There are quite a few to go through here, and we will be adding more with time as we find them, so be sure to bookmark this article to stay privy of updates.

So, without further ado, here are the best Cydia tweaks for iOS 11 – 11.4. Which one is your favorite?
