Widgets for iOS, or perhaps something close


I know this sounds funny, as people with the right mind will point me out that there is no such thing as home screen widget, and would never gonna happen on iOS devices. You are right. But, there are ways where you can add widget-like shortcut apps on your home screen that ease your access to some of the essential settings of your device. Don't worry about jail-breaking, as there's no need for that, your iPad and iPhone will remain legal and work smoothly.

All you have to do is to go to brdrck.me/settings/ created by this brilliant guy named Jeff Broderick. Then, tap on any of the shortcut icon and tap on the "Install Shortcut" button on the screen. It will then prompt you to confirm your installation. After you are done, you now have your shortcut widget right on your home screen.

Tips: It's compulsory to open the link given using your iOS device as the installation will occur straight in your device. Don't do it on your PC or Mac, it won't work.
