Hi there!
You may know me as part of the Odyssey Team, that has brought you Odyssey, Taurine and is currently working on "Taurine15", and to a lesser extent (since it was never really "announced") the lead designer for Zebra Team.
I teased recently on Twitter that I was really excited about 2 upcoming designs, and I am super excited to share both of those with you! Please note that these are mockups, made in Sketch, so there will be differences in the final product, as well as credits, which you will notice are mismatched.
First up, "Taurine15". You guys probably knew it would get an actual name at some point, and that time is now! The name is going to be Cheyote! But that's not all! I'm actually going to be showing off the design today!
Here it is!
I decided to make sure the design this time was less cramped than the Taurine/Odyssey "mini-menu", and include requested details like app version in the app. The update manager from previous years has also been expanded, so you can now see changelogs right in the app!
The jailbreak itself is making good progress, and we hope to be able to roll it out to you in the near future, with 15.0-15.1.1 support at launch, while we look into 15.4.1 capability too!
I promised 2 designs, so here is the second!
Zebra 2 for iPhone
Zebra 2 for iPad
With Zebra 2, you'll notice some large changes have been made to overall design and functionality (big thanks to Shuga for helping with the design, and the rest of the Zebra Team for their feedback and suggestions during the design process)!
Here's a quick list of features we're excited about:
- Canonical Search: the Search button is now removed from the tab bar, so that search can provide more relevant results depending on where search was initiated (searching in browse will offer repos from Canister for the first few results by default for example)
- Flow Installer: The install process when show detail isn't enabled comes with a flow through design, giving you a clearer idea of what's currently being installed.
- Dependency Tree in the Queue: The Queue will now show you which package dependencies belong to, so you know which dependency belongs to which package.
And much more!
All these changes won't land at once, but we'll be rolling them out as part of smaller point updates, after a large initial "2.0" update, which will be released in beta soon!
And finally some personal news.
I will be stepping back from the community as a creator, but am very thankful for both the audience and opportunities this community has afforded me. I will always be here as a fan, and as a board to bounce ideas off, and give feedback!
I hand off my responsibilities to the capable, kind and super helpful duo of u/WoahAName and u/Jioriku!
Treat them with the same kindness you have treated me!
If you have any questions or thoughts about the designs, the news or want to ask me personally, this is the place!
