Exiwall tweak adds Magic to the wallpaper on Lock Screen
Exiwall tweak adds Magic to the wallpaper on Lock Screen – Exiwall tweak enhances the wallpaper depth feature on the Lock Screen, a functionality first introduced in iOS 16, resembling that of watchOS. This tweak replicates the 3D effect by selecting the foreground of an image and positioning it in front of the current time. While iOS 16 supports this feature natively, Exiwall extends it to earlier iOS versions, specifically iOS 14 through iOS 16. The latest update ensures compatibility with Fugu15 Max and Dopamine jailbreaks.
What is Exiwall?
Exiwall is a jailbreak tweak designed to introduce a captivating feature to iOS 14 and iOS 15. It mimics the wallpaper depth effect seen in iOS 16 on the Lock Screen of iOS 14 devices. With Exiwall, users can create wallpapers with a depth effect where a portion of the subject appears above the date/time display.
While iOS 16’s depth effect wallpapers are exclusive to iPhone XS and newer models (A12+), Exiwall extends this functionality to older iPhones. This tweak reaffirms that innovative features are not solely reliant on hardware capabilities but are limited only by Apple’s decisions.
Upon installation, Exiwall adds a dedicated preference pane to the Settings app, allowing users to enable the tweak and respring their device. Compatible with iPhone 6s and later models, Exiwall requires iOS 14.0 – iOS 14.8.1 and does not support iPads. The latest update also includes compatibility with Palera1n Jailbreak running iOS 15 up to iOS 16.7.1.
Exiwall utilizes advanced machine learning analysis on the device to create the depth effect on the Lock Screen. For optimal results, it’s recommended to use well-lit images with prominent subjects and distinct backgrounds. Images with low light, graininess, or lacking contrasting subjects may not produce satisfactory results. It’s important to note that Exiwall-generated wallpapers do not support the perspective zoom feature, only work in portrait orientation, and do not function with video wallpapers. However, it supports all modern jailbreaks for iOS 14.
Exiwall offers limited compatibility with other Lock Screen customization tweaks such as Jellyfish, Kalm, Quart, WeatherLS, SimpleTime, Fabric 2, Complications, Watermelon, Axon, Analog, Diary, and DualClock 2. It is not compatible with tweaks like Vartaman, Ventana, Helix, Xen Html, and LockPlus.
While Exiwall places the wallpaper subject above the date/time view, other elements like complications/widgets/lock icon/battery charging indicators will always remain above the wallpaper subject. Developed by Foxfort Mobile, the creator of PortraitXI, Exiwall brings an innovative touch to iOS customization.
To change wallpapers using Exiwall, users can enable the tweak in the Settings app and select a solid wallpaper from the Wallpapers section. Exiwall will then generate a depth wallpaper, allowing users to scale and position it according to their preferences for a perfect Lock Screen background.
Exiwall serves as a unique solution for iOS 14 users, offering the ability to enable a 3D foreground on the Lock Screen with a depth effect. It effectively replaces the iOS 16 depth effect wallpaper feature, extending its functionality to older devices. Exiwall stands out as one of the premier Lock Screen tweaks for iOS 14 and iOS 15.
The latest version of Exiwall includes support for Dopamine jailbreak and introduces an experimental feature allowing users to utilize an alternate animation when swiping up on the Lock Screen in iOS 15. This feature addresses animation glitches and is recommended for users experiencing such issues.
Since version 1.1, Exiwall also supports XinaA15, the latest iOS 15 jailbreak for modern devices running on A12 – A15 CPUs. Users can now install Exiwall tweak on iOS 15.0 up to iOS 15.1.1 on iPhone XS, iPhone 11, iPhone 12, iPhone 13, and iPhone 14.
