Once again, developer Elias Sfeir shows that he has not usurped his reputation. The one who has released countless tweaks offers us SmartNotifications to improve the experience of the native notification system of the iPhone. With it, you will be able to control everything.
SmartNotifications iOS16 Tweak Preview
SmartNotifications, which supports iOS 15 and iOS 16 rootless jailbreaks, takes the principle of SmartNotifications 2 in 2020, which is a wide range of rules and features for incoming notifications, but adapted to the latest updates (except iOS 17).
If you follow us, you already know everything you can do with SmartNotifications. But it is good to remember some advantages of such a tweak:
- Set custom sounds for each app – there are 15 sounds included, and you can import your own sounds.
- Set up custom notification periods per app so you can block work-related notifications during your leisure time, etc.
- Allow certain apps to send notifications even when your device is in silent mode, so you don’t miss an important event.
- Don’t alert you when you use one or more specific applications on your device, ideal for playing, watching a movie or working peacefully.
- Force vibration for specific apps, even when your phone’s ringtone is set to ring or silent.
- Big plus, you can block notifications from specific contacts from your favorite messaging and social platforms.
- Block notifications containing specific words or phrases to prevent NSFW notifications or other unwanted content from appearing at sensitive times.
- Send fake notifications containing a personalized name and message.
- Snooze notifications.
- Remove the option button from notification banners.
- And many more…
This will greatly improve the notification experience, a useful feature that often overwhelms users.
While waiting for potential developments with iOS 18, this is an interesting solution for jailbroken iPhones. The tweak costs €2.49 from the Havoc repository via any package management application, and €1.49 for users of the previous SmartNotifications tweak. SmartNotifications iOS16 is compatible with recent jailbreaks such as palera1n or Dopamine.
