Your iPhone’swallpaperis arguably one of the most personal things you’ll customize on your handset right out of the box. Having said that, it’s a popular thing even for jailbreakers to customize.
One thing worth staring, however, is that jailbreakers do things a little differently. Rather than using boring motionless wallpaper images,jailbreak tweakscan apply unique effects to your wallpaper images that you simply can’t experience on a stock handset.
One such example comes by way of a new jailbreak tweak calledEvaby iOS developerren7995, which offers beautiful parallax wallpaper effects and a whole lot of other options that will make all your non-jailbroken friends drool over your jailbreak.
So how does it work? In essence, you can set ultra wide images as your iPhone’s wallpaper and then watch as the wallpaper pans across your screen each time you scroll over to a different Home Screen page.
The animated GIF above depicts what the effect is supposed to be like, and the demonstration video below provided by the developer offers an even more valuable look at what can be accomplished with Eva:

Thanks to the extension options provided by Eva, you’re able to use wallpaper images you designate for yourself or you can let the tweak find randomized ones for you. Best of all, it can discriminate between light mode and dark mode, allowing you to set different wallpapers for each.
