Review: Chip

It is no question that there are numerous Cydia tweaks to customize the notification banners on your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad. Two tweaks that might come to your mind now are Vexillum and ColorBanner, both of them allow you to customize your notification center banners. The current problem with existing notification banner customizing tweaks is that they lack complete control of all aspects of the actual banner. This is why when Chip was released I was excited to share it with you.

Chip is a complete notification banner customizing platform that allows you to edit the background color (solid color or gradient effect), border color, border width and even text color. And while changing the color of various aspects of your notification banner you can choose from pre-set colors or use the RGB sliders.

Another neat feature of Chip is that you can customize the animation of your notification banners and also the sound of the notification (built-in ringtones or iTunes ringtones). The developers of Chip promise to make more animations available in each update as well!

You can check out Chip in action below:


If you are looking for a tweak to provide you with complete control over how your notification banners look on your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad then Chip is definitely for you. You can get Chip for $1.99 in Cydia under the BigBoss repo.
