Lockbuilder Evolution Update.

Hi guys I know I've done a review for LockBuilderEvo already but that was in the early days of this great Lockscreen tweak and since then this tweak has grown into something even more spectacular than I first wrote about. Not only has the UI been updated but also it's features and it's capabilities has also grown and grown, for instance you can design a setup with widgets or elements like weather, time and save them to your Springboard (SBHTML required (free in Cydia). Also June has now made a LockBuilderEvo for GroovyLock, meaning now you don't need Cydget to run LockBuilderEvo, just GroovyLock. The amount of elements you can have for your Lockscreen is incredible ranging from Rude Forecast which we all love, to individual weather forecast icons for certain days (up to 4 days) you can set your City, Country and even Neighbourhood. It's very easy to use, when you swipe left on your Lockscreen you will see options like, Elements, Widgets (normal and animated) Weather Background, Icons, Wallpaper and Wallsite which sends you to the LBEvo site thanks to Gunny29, where you can get wallpapers, themes and even other widgets, a lot of thought and hard work has gone into making this tweak very user friendly. If you click on Elements it's broken down into sections 1) Weather, 2) Clocks, 3) Texts, 4) Local, 5) Notify, 6) System and 7) Create. An example of the changes in the UI is the new colour chooser, it's a brilliantly designed colour selector with an arrow that you can move to wherever you want and if you can't find your colour you can either type the colour code in to where it says enter or now you can select Get Colour From Wallpaper which opens safari and then if you select choose file it opens up photos so you can select the wallpaper you want and touch areas of the wallpaper and it will give you the code for that colour then you can just enter the text code. June really has grown not only as a designer but also as a great developer, this guy is just outstanding at coding, and I've been privileged enough to watch what he creates as one of his beta testers, what June can do is nothing short of amazing. Another new feature is the swipe down on Lockscreen where it will let you choose Last App visited, Settings , Save , Load and even Respring, this again shows Junes attention to not only detail but user experience. As with before you can still add icons to your Lockscreen, another new feature is the change in the shadow selector which now incorporates sliders to select your shadows on the text on Lockscreen. Iconoclasm is also incorporated into the options so you can add icon layouts to your Lockscreen themes. You can add GroovyLock overlays to your themes and normal Overlays, also is a wallpaper fix button which will remove the wallpaper trapped underneath and now June has added a Alert Memory button which tells you about your free memory and then by pressing ok it frees up memory on your device. I will also add that LockBuilderEvo is now available for iPad. LockBuilderEvo is live in Cydia now, and new themes are being released daily by not only June but by users who build their themes and submit them to June and then they are put on Cydia for others to use for free. Check out the Screenshots below to give you an idea on how this fantastic Lockscreen tweak works. I can't really do this theme any justice with words so check out the pictures below and go grab your copy now. Please support Devs by purchasing your tweaks in the correct way to keep great Devs like June bringing us more great stuff for our iDevices.
