No matter the amount of functionality you get from your device, you always want more. Don’t worry, it’s not just you, we all do it. And one of the things that the Apple users – especially those with the larger screen sizes of the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus – have always wanted is more icons for their dock.

While you get to add four icons in the dock on an iPhone, for some users, that’s just not enough. Having apps in the dock makes them much easier and faster to access.

Thankfully, you have a Cydia tweak that can help slightly, by adding just one more app to the dock. Here’s how to install the tweak to get a fifth icon dock on your iPhone.
