7×7 SpringBoard

Version 1.0

This tweak will allow you to have 7 rows and 7 columns.

Have you ever thought to yourself, “sure, we are capable, but is there really a need?”

This tweak kind of smacks of that sentiment.

Sure, we can DO 7×7, but seriously, after seeing it… why would you?

Are you really that desperate for more app icon space? Frankly if you’re so packed for space and need to cram all you can into just a couple swipes, you’re an app pack rat. No one uses enough apps on a regular basis to warrant such an extreme measure. No one.

And, if by some bizarre, freak-of-nature, chance you do? Might I suggest Categories?

This is not scientific advancement. This isn’t curing people or saving lives, this is enjoying technology in the palm of our hands. If you really need to cram that much into your iPhone, I think you have bigger fish to fry than app storage space.

All that aside, however, I am mightily pissed that when I removed the tweak (and mind you, you have to actually uninstall it from Cydia to undo the adjustments, you cannot simply switch it off) it rearranged my icons and moved them to different screens altogether. I was none-to-pleased about that.

    I totally agree, what a total waste of time. When I removed it I had to reorganise most of my springboard icons.

    I use categories as well but thought this was interesting, what a fool I was, maybe the screenshot in cydia was abit misleading, it appeared to have tiny icons not overlapping at all.

    Good job I didn’t have to pay for this garbage.

    0/10 in all areas.

    It is a nice feature once we can have smaller icons. Then it will be very welcome. Right now its a joke. 5 row springboard and 5 icon dock works fine for now.

    Finally !! An Apps that allow me to have more apps per page. I knew there was an apps for that. Now I can put all my gaming apps in page 2, and all my 49 social networking apps in page 3, and another 49 educational apps in page 4. And still have room for more games by using Categories. Yes! finally the apps I been looking for. Thank you so much. love u guys ;)

    Not a bad idea, but it would be better if the apps did not overlap. Also, there is no reason to have THAT many apps on ur iphone/itouch.
