Given that iOS devices continue to be some of the best music players on the market today, it’s not surprising that we continue to see more and more jailbreak tweaks for pwned handsets that attempt to out-do Apple at their own game, or at the very least, offer a level of personalization for the end user that otherwise wouldn’t be available on a stock handset.
For those wanting to expand on Apple’s award-winning music player experience, a newjailbreak tweakdubbedSpectralby iOS developerBeckett O’Brienjust might be of interest.
In the simplest of terms, Spectral offers a modern alternative to the Lock Screen’s native Now Playing music player, and it even offers a built-in animated audio visualizer to help you synergize with the beat of whatever it is you might be listening to at any given time.

Spectral offers a lot of customization for the end user, all of which can be found in a dedicated preference pane added to the Settings app post-installation:

Once you’ve configured Spectral to your personal liking, you’ll want to use the Respring button at the top-right of the preference pane to save any changes you’ve made.
We think Spectral offers great advantages over Apple’s native Lock Screen music player for a myriad of reasons, but aesthetics is definitely at the top of that list. Those interested in giving the tweak a try canpurchase it for $1.49 via the Chariz repositoryvia their favorite package manager. The tweak supportsjailbrokeniOS & iPadOS 13 and 14 devices.
