Jailbreak iOS 8.4

When the TaiG team pleasantly surprised us by releasing the TaiG jailbreak tool for iOS 8.3 – iOS 8.1.3, we celebrated by compiling a list of 25 free jailbreak tweaks and followed it up with another list of 25 free tweaks.

Now that the iOS 8.4 jailbreak has been out for more than two weeks, it has given developers enough time to make their tweaks compatible with iOS 8.4. So Cody has created an epic video of 120 jailbreak tweaks. Yup, 120!

So if you’re looking for new tweaks for your freshly jailbroken iPhone or iPad, then it can’t get better than this.
