Anyone who does a lot of text messaging on the iOS platform knows just how barebones of a communication tool theMessagesapp really is. With so little customization on the user’s part, many conversationists flock to alternative messaging platforms, such asFacebookMessenger orWhatsAppMessenger, just to name a few.
Those looking to breathe new life into Apple’s Messages app platform on pwned iOS devices will do good to check out a newly releasedjailbreak tweakcalledDopeConvosby iOS developerEthan Whited, as it introduces a plethora of customization options that can both make the app more aesthetically customizable and supercharge its feature set.

Personally, I’m content with how Apple’s Messages app looks out of the box. As a minimalist, however, I don’t mind removing the message ‘tails’ and doing away with the fill color in place of an outline instead.

Whether you’re in it for the aesthetics or the Message pinning capabilities, DopeConvos isavailable to purchase for $1.50 from the Packix repositoryvia your preferred package manager. The tweak supportsjailbrokeniOS 13 & 14 devices and only works in Apple’s default Messages app.
