We all love owning and using our iDevices, probably a bit to much in
some cases, but at the end of the day when the sun goes down there comes
a point where we just want to slip under the covers and have an
uninterrupted nights slumber. Depending on what apps you may have
installed on your device, it could be set to push alerts for pretty much
anything meaning that peaceful nights sleep could be well and truly
thrown out of the window if you forget to flick that silent switch.
iSleepWell is a tweak that has just hit Cydia and brings with it a
feature set that attempts to give the user a good nights sleep. The
package achieves this through the simple method of deactivating all of
the device’s radios, in other words, setting Airplane mode to on through
a simple detection routine. iOS devices comes built in with a number of
hardware sensors that can detect the orientation of the phone, allowing
certain things to happen for each state it may be in. iSleepWell uses
this hardware capability and turns off all radios when the device is
placed screen down on a surface.
In essence, it is quite a simple little tweak. By placing the phone screen down on a bedside table, or on a desk during a meeting, Airplane mode will be activated meaning no calls, messages or alerts are able to come through to the handset. iSleepWell also comes with a number of configurable options which allows the user to set certain criteria such as how often the tweak scans for the screen down state, whether or not the device is allowed to make a sound or vibrate as well as a few other preferences.
This tweak is certainly one that users will download to have a play
with, although it doesn’t really add what I would call an essential
feature set. With that said, iSleepWell is a very well developed and
professionally implemented tweak that will certainly prove popular with a
subset of users who require the functionality. The tweak is available
from the BigBoss repository for a cost of $0.99 and requires a device
running iOS 5.0 or above.
Of course, you will need to jailbreak your device to install this tweak.
