How to Customize App Folders on your Home Screen Using TinyGrid+ (Video)
On your quest to customize the look and feel of your iDevice, TinyGrid+ should be on your list of tweaks to check out. It’s a simple, $0.99 tweak that lets you customize the density of a folder’s white background on your home screen, allowing you to make it almost clear. You can also customize how many rows and columns of app icons you want to displayed, as well as icon sizes and the spacing between them.
I. Jailbreak your iPhone/iPad
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 7.0.4). Once done with that procedure and you have Cydia installed, head back here to continue.
