IconLock7 Is A New Jailbreak Tweak That Prevents Apps From Being Moved OR Deleted In iOS 7

IconLock7 Is A New Jailbreak Tweak That Prevents Apps From Being Moved OR Deleted In iOS 7 -  Are you annoyed that your application icons on you Home Screen or applications themselves may be removed easily without your permission?....OK, now surely it will be delightful for you to know that it is a new free jailbreak tweak has just been released on Cydia's BigBoss repo called  IconLock7. How does it work?..let's pass the jump.



Iconlock7 is a new jailbreak tweak that allows you to add a password that helps you to prevent apps to be deleted without your permission. It also can help you to prevent people from deleting apps by obliging them to implement a pass code to get into your device.



When you install IconLock7, you will need to enter jiggle mode on home screen  by holding on an application icon. After doing this,you will be asked to insert a password in a password box that popped up to configure the tweak. You also have to know that the tweak doesn't ask you to enter you password again to verify it, which is considered to be one of the tweak flaws

.

When your password is entered, you will be taken back to the Home screen. When  entering wiggle mode again, you will be asked to enter your password  before allowing you to enter wiggle mode and deleting or moving apps. It is obvious that if you entered the wrong password, you will be not allowed to edit your apps.



Finally, it is unfortunate that IconLock7 preferences pane in the settings app, thus means that users can't reset their passcode until deleting and then reinstalling the package using the Cydia application.you can install the tweak freely from Cydia's BigBoss repository.
