When folks submit a package to any repository they can specify the "Section" in which it should be listed. See the "Changes Tab" topic for more details on manually refreshing the packages in Cydia, which is useful if you receive errors when refreshing. Because Cydia is just a front end there is very rarely anything wrong with Cydia itself. It's normally best to wait a while and refresh again later. These errors tend to happen because one or more of the repositories which host the app packages is not responding properly due to too much traffic.
Occasionally you will see errors, particularly around the time of the release of a new jailbreak. You should always let this process complete as this is Cydia polling all the app repositories for new and updated packages for you to install. The black bar at the top of the screen show the refresh progress. You will also notice that when you launch Cydia it will refresh all of its "sources" (more on these later). There isn't a test at the end and if you aren't interested in this stuff it really doesn't matter!Ĭydia was developed by Jay Freeman (Saurik) who was one of the pioneers of Apple jailbreaking and continues to play an important part in the scene today.įor more details on SHSH Blobs see our sticky here. In more technical terms, Cydia is a native UIKit graphical front-end to APT, which folks familiar with Debian, or other flavours of Linux, may recognise as the Advanced Packaging Tool - Advanced Packaging Tool - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Cydia simply provides you access to everything which Apple do not allow into the app store and can only be enabled via jailbreaking.
#CYDIA APP HIDER INSTALL#
When you are jailbroken, you continue to install apps from the App store as normal. It is the app you will use to download, install, and manage the majority of jailbreak apps and tweaks which you install on your device. In simple terms, Cydia is the equivalent of the App Store for jailbreakers.
