A3Tweaks, the developers of Auxo, had posted a teaser video of Auxo for iOS 8 last week, and today they’ve followed up with more teasers of the tweak, as well as a release date.
Auxo, in case you’re not aware, is a jailbreak tweak that replaces the default multitasking app switcher with a new UI, useful gestures and more.
In a series of 6 second Vine videos, A3Tweaks has teased a number of new features of Auxo for iOS 8, including a “Dynamic Multi-Center”, that combines both the Control Center and the app switcher, and can be opened with a swipe from the bottom. As you see in the video below, the Control Center Panel intelligently resizes based on whether a song is playing or not. Tapping on the Now Playing panel brings up the album art.

The app switching process also gets a lot easier with Auxo, with a really handy gesture where you swipe from the bottom of the screen, and then slide your finger horizontally to switch through recently opened apps.

A3Tweaks will submit the tweak next week. There’s no word on whether this will be a brand new tweak, or a free or paid update. We’re expecting A3Tweaks to reveal more details as we approach its launch.
Let us know what you think of Auxo for iOS 8 in the comments below. Back when Auxo was first released for iOS 6, a lot of people considered the tweak a good enough reason to jailbreak. Do you think Auxo for iOS 8 looks like a good reason to jailbreak your device?
