For those who did not yet notice, Cydia “an app store for jailbroken iOS devices” has received a new update. This update brings a new flat look, bright colors and translucent overlays in line with iOS 7. This comes just after the Evasi0n team released a jailbreak for iOS 7. The Cydia app icon however has not yet been updated to an iOS 7 look. A video of the new Cydia can be seen after the break. » Jailbreak App Cydia Updated With iOS 7 Design
