Tweaks that will make your Notifications Center even better.

Two tweaks that will make your iPhone's Notification center even better , NCsettings and FastBlurriedNotifiactionCenter.Read more to learn about these tweaks..




1. NCsettings

First let's talk about NCsettings , this tweak is a better alternative to SBsettings and even better . Good stylish UI . It adds for iPhone and iPad adds a row of system toggles to Notification Center for commonly used settings such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, brightness, and airplane mode. It's very similar to the system toggles you'd find in SBSettings but integrated in a way that's much more consistent with the default look of iOS.
I prefer NCsettings over SBsettings because the latter completely destroys the look of your springboard due to it's tangy colours.

When you first install NCSettings to your iPhone or iPad you'll have to hop into Settings and enable it under Notifications. Move it up and down to wherever you'd like it to appear in Notification Center. I prefer it all the way at the top above the weather widget but you can place it where you'd like. Once you've done that, just pull down your Notification Center shade and you'll notice a new row of icons. These are system toggles just like many are already used to having in SBSettings. 




The thing I really like about NCSettings opposed to SBSettings is that it blends really nicely into iOS and doesn't look like it's out of place. It isn't as full featured as SBSettings and won't give you options like changing the carrier banner or managing memory but if you don't require those features and just want access to system toggles, NCSettings is a great choice.

You can get NCsettings from the Bigboss repo for free . 



2. FastBlurriedNotificationCenter :

 FastBlurriedNotificationCenter is the enhanced version of BlurriedNCBackground, what it does is blur the background of your screen notification center, the difference is that this new BlurriedNCBackground modification slows the opening of the notification center.
In addition FastBlurriedNotificationCenter blurs your notification center as you open it, creating a nice effect you can see in the video below
