iPhone Techie

Stride is a new Cydia app that allows you to create your own custom unlock animation to unlock your iDevice.

No icons are installed on your home screen, but a tab is put into your Cydia apps/tweaks section. The app allows you to enable or disable the app, to disable your iDevice’s unlock code and also allows you to customize your own animation.

The calibration process consists of three entries of your desired animation, which will then be confirmed and then you’re all set to go. No reboot or respiring is required you can just lock your phone, slide to unlock and then enter your animation in the entry pad. Your image should appear on screen and flash green, then your phone will unlock. If an incorrect entry is performed, the image drawn will flash red.

It is advisable that you keep your pin code still enabled when using this app, as there is an image of 9 blocks in the bottom right of the entry screen. Pressing this button will automatically enter you into the iDevice, without the need for an animation if no unlock code is present. This is the one major downside to this app, as you still need to enter your pin code in order to unlock the phone and you’ll also need your pin code to keep your iDevice secure.

Either way, I’m sure that the dev’s will look at this issue and fix it pretty soon.

Stride is available from the Cydia store for $2.99.

Download it and tell us what you think.

Of course what is the point of paying for something you might not like right? here is the REPO you can add / use on your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch to get this app for free for testing purposes and then KEEPING it if you like it. 2.99 is not a lot of money but I believe everything in Cydia should be FREE because that was the reason why it was created to begin with…

Anyways, add the xSellize: http://cydia.xsellize.com <—– (Try this, everything is cracked) source/repo in your cydia on your iPhone and search for “Stride”… install it and use it.

Good Luck guys. iPhone Techie is OUT
