How to Combine the Control Center and App Switcher in iOS 7 Using Vertex (Video)

Based on someone’s iOS 8 concept of a “mission control” upgrade to control center in iOS 7, a jailbreak tweak developer came up with Vertex. Vertex allows you to replace the app switcher and the control center with a sleek combination of the two. Essentially it takes the app switcher and squishes it up to the top half of the screen while adding the control center options below it. While it may sound a bit simple, it does actually aid in iOS 7 a bit more minimalistic in a way and gets a little addictive once you’ve used it for a while. It’s $1.49 and a neat tweak to check out. Here’s how to install it.

I. Jailbreak your iPhone/iPad

1. To do this procedure you must be jailbroken. If you aren’t, you can head to our How to Jailbreak iOS 7.0.6 (the latest version at the time of writing this). Once done with that procedure and you have Cydia installed, head back here to continue.

II. Install Vertex

1. Open Cydia.

2. Tap Search in the bottom right corner.

3. Type in Vertex.

4. Tap on Vertex when it shows up.

5. Tap Purchase at the top right and follow the prompts to login and purchase using your preferred method.

6. Tap Close when you’ve paid.

7. Tap Install where Purchase used to be.

8. Tap Restart.

III. Use Vertex

1. Open Settings.

2. Go to Vertex.

3. Turn it on. It will replace the app switcher by default.

4. Adjust the following options as necessary:

  • Swipe Up – Essentially replaces the control center as well now since swiping up from off the screen will open Vertex.
  • Switcher Icons – Enable or Disable App Icons in the switcher.
  • Grey Background – Um, gives you a grey background…
  • Rounded Card Corners – This makes the app switcher cards have rounded corners.
