- Compliance with Cydia Mobile Substrate framework for registering of dylibs (now a Cydia prerequisite)

Love the features of bitesms, especially the fact that you can swipe left to right in the message box to add a contact or to txt you gps location. I also like that you can choose between bites server or your mobile carriers. Most people use the bite server when traveling abroad because the international txt rates can get pretty steep. I like the fact that you can txt in landscape mode but, some of the features only work when in portrait mode.
