iOS (jailbroken): The iPhone lock screen hasn’t changed much since it was first introduced. If you’re looking to get more information stuffed into it without cluttering the screen, Peekly is a new theme that adds a lot of useful information.
Unlike most Winterboard themes, Peekly completely changes how the lock screen works by letting you swipe left or right to “peek” at information. The weather and a calendar is what you get by default, but you can edit the JavaScript file included in the theme to change those “peeks” to your RSS feed, Twitter and other sources of information (you can also change the wallpaper and edit other parts of the theme there as well).
Peekly is a handy way to put a little more info on your lock screen without adding too much clutter. You have to install Peekly manually right now while it’s still in beta, but it should be up in repositories soon.
