The developer Ron Melkhior pushed one of the latest tweaks to land in the Cydia Store, and gave it a name called “AppSlider”, which relates to the fact that the tweak makes modifications to either side of the slide to unlock graphic on the device’s lockscreen. AppSlider is one of the best tweak now available for regular users of iPhone who have one or two applications that they use on a recurring basis. For Example, Facebook users may like to have the Facebook apllication located permanently on the Lockscreen, giving then quick access without having to unlock the device first.

Words from the AppSlider developer:

AppSlider will minimize the width of the slider, and in the blank spaces will add the feature to add in every side an icon of an app you choose, and when you will tap it, it will open the app.

The AppSlider tweak essentially gives users the ability to launch custom applications from the lockscreen, which it achieves by minimizing the slide to unlock bar and adding the chosen application icons to both sides of the slider.

AppSlider is a very simple, but powerful tweak and will definitely appeal to those iPhone and iPod touch users who have a couple of applications which they use on a more frequent basis than all others.

After launching this app doesn’t suffer from any sort of lag, and for those who are security concious, the AppSlider tweak respects the passcode lock settings, means if user has a passcode lock set through the Settings application, the numeric keypad will still be presented when the application is tapped, requiring the correct password before proceeding into the app itself.

AppSlider is available from the BigBoss repository as a free of charge download, requires iOS 5, and is currently only compatible with the iPhone and iPod touch.

Probably you will need to jailbreak your device to use it: For jailbreaking iPhone 4S and iPad 2, just follow our complete guide posted here to jailbreak iOS 5.0.1 using Absinthe Windows or Mac.

SiriLaunch for iPhone is a Cydia tweak developed by Jude Jean-Pierre, without any new commands, it gets the best out of Apple’s Notification hub. Which was considered as a significant correction for an obvious defect in iOS.

Using SiriLaunch tweak you can easily enable or disable the Notification Center shortcut for Siri and move it to any other position on the x-axis via Settings -> SiriLaunch.

So, the Jailbreak tweak allows you launch Siri simply by swiping down on the status bar from any app and tapping on the Siri button at the bottom left corner. Not only that, SiriLaunch allows you to access the Voice-activated application simply by swiping the status bar downward.

While this cydia tweak “SiriLaunch” only works with the iPhone 4S (Jailbroken already). Don’t own it, then you need Spire to authenticate data from 4S device.

Once downloaded and installed, the Siri mic icon will sit seamlessly in the bottom left corner of your Notification Center silently, solving an annoying defect that users needed to eliminate.

Its available from the BigBoss repository as a default in your list of sources providing you haven’t manually delete it.

In order to install Sirilaunch you have to jailbreak your iPhone 4S by using Absinthe jailbreak tool and for Non-iPhone 4S Devices below are the guides to follow.
