How to Fully Customize Folders in iOS 7 (Video)

Ever thought you’d be able to put a folder WITHIN a folder? Well, with this jailbreak tweak called FolderEnhancer, you not only do that, but you can also change the amount of icons in each folder and more. Have I blown your mind yet? Check out the video below for how to get the tweak installed and how to use it to customize the folders on your iPhone or iPad running iOS 7.

I. Jailbreak your iPhone/iPad

1. To do this procedure you must be jailbroken. If you aren’t, you can head to our Jailbreak How To’s section and pick the jailbreak for your version of iOS (currently at the time of writing this is 7.0.5). Once done with that procedure and you have Cydia installed, head back here to continue.
