How To Get Rounded Screen Corners on Any iPhone

LG G6 and Samsung Galaxy S8 where the first smartphones to spot a subtle rounded corners on its display, and this new design makes both device look more refined. Other smartphone manufacturers have decided to follow suit with this new trend. As you can see, the rounded corners are visibly present on the display of every high-end Android phone developed in 2017 including the new LG V30 and Google Pixel 2. We'd hope for this tradition to be safely maintained in the upcoming smartphones.

Following the release of Apple's iPhone X, 8 and 8 Plus, one would think that the three device will spot a rounded display corners. But the scenerio was contrary to what we had thought, as the new rounded corners was visible only on iPhone X. The rounded corners found on the brand new iPhone X (ten) display made it look quite exceptional, but while it's only exclusive to the iPhone X, there's also a way to get the feature on older iPhones and we're going to achieve this with just a simple tweak.

Install RoundScreenCorners

To begin with, you'll need to make sure that your iPhone is jailbroken and that you have installed the latest Cydia app. From here, simply locate and open Cydia, then search for "RoundScreenCorners" without quotes. (Note that it's a single word, so don't give any space). Once you have found the tweak, download and install it directly on your iOS device. Alternatively, you can navigate to the big boss cydia repository website and download the RoundedScreenCorners tweak.

Enable RoundScreenCorners

Next up, respring your iPhone and head to Settings >> RoundedScreenCorners. From here, simply enable the tweak and adjust the Radius Option to your liking. One cool stuff you'd notice about this tweak is that it does not require a respring, so once you enable it, go ahead and adjust the Radius by using the slider. Changes will take effect immediately.

One thing to add, when you apply this tweak on your black iPhone, it'd look awesome but if you are using a white iPhone, then you'll see the LCD. The will makes it to look really annoying and unpleasant. Apart from this, the "RoundedScreenCorners" tweak works perfectly well and you can try it on your iOS device to get a subtle and refined rounded screen corners.

Download Google Pixel 2 Launcher APK on Your Android Phone

The Google Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL is due to arrive soon and while we are still waiting heartily for the acclaimed device, there is a need to get most of its apps on our current Android phone. Google's yearly tradition of tweaking the Pixel's UI makes the device to look quite exceptional, and if you have been spending the past few days on YouTube (just like me) watching the Pixel 2 in action, then you'd agree with me that the newest Pixel launcher spotted on the Pixel 2 XL brings a ton of attractive features. Previously, we wrote an article on how you can make Nova Launcher to mimic the Pixel 2 Launcher, we also went further to offer you all of its widgets and wallpaper. Hopefully today, I'm pleased to announce that the latest Pixel 2 launcher APK is available for download.

So if you think following the Nova launcher recipe is cumbersome, you can try to install the Pixel 2 launcher APK since it brings all of the Pixel 2 exclusive features. One of the changes you will notice on the new Pixel 2 launcher is the search bar which has been moved down to the bottom to replace the dock we where once used to on the Pixels. The colored G logo present in the search bar widget has also been tweaked a little bit to showcase transparency but their actions has not been changed so far.


At the top, we have the new "at a glance" widget that provides informations such as the weather condition, calender info and clock. The app drawer looks quite neat too and beautifully arranged. The latest Pixel 2 launcher we're going to present also spots a Google Now integration that's accessible from the side of the display. So if you'd love to get the pixel launcher on your Android phone, then here we go.

Download Pixel 2 Launcher

To begin with, download the latest Pixel 2 Launcher apk on your Android phone and install it ASAP. If you're faced with any error such as "App not installed", you can install the modified version of the Pixel 2 launcher on your device. Alternatively, you can choose to download the zip file of the latest Pixel 2 launcher and flash it via custom recovery. Overall, enjoy the new Pixel 2 Launcher on your Amdroid Phone.

How to Get LG V30's Floating Bar on Your Android Phone

LG V30 is a strong device that offers lots of plethora features. The camera is one of the best feature that's capable of unleashing the cinematographer in you, the device goes as far as bringing the Google assistant built-in and a face recognition that unlocks your device's screen with just a scan of your face. LG's flagship device has always been the V-series, and the company have maintained a common tradition of enabling secondary display on its mobile (LG V10 and V20 boosts of this feature).

Upon the production of the V30, LG had to ditch the "second screen" for a floating bar which creates a shortcut for your favorite apps and call notification and it's accessible from the V30 display . This feature was necessary in other to attain a classic look for the device. If you've gotten a chance to look at LG V30's customizable and virtual floating bar, then i guess you love what you saw and hence wish to try this feature on your Android phone. Don't worry, we have got you covered..

Now you'll see the floating bar at the side of your device's display, simply tap on it to see the lists of app shortcuts you created. One thing that amazes me about this app is that it's accessible even at the lock screen and when you're using another app.

The floating bar is moveable, but you can only drag it when it collapse. There are four categories within the app, with an option to enable/disable each categories separately. By default, only the "app" category is unlocked. So you'd have to support the developer to unlock other categories and enjoy more features.
