Please note that you will be prompted to enter a passcode when accessing the Hidden Space, and you can either choose to use your device’s native passcode or a completely custom one that you can set in the tweak’s settings. After you’re in the Hidden Space, you can either tap on the “+” button to add more apps or you can tap on the “x” button to exit it. Once hidden, those apps are relocated to what’s called the Hidden Space, which can be accessed whenever you need it with a simple pinch gesture on your Home Screen. The tweak can even intelligently hide notifications from those apps, preventing the user from seeing them. Not only are those apps hidden from the Home Screen and from Folders, but they’re also hidden from places like Spotlight search, Siri Suggestions, the App Store, and more.


To explain Spore in its simplest terms, the tweak lets you hide and protect app(s) so that when someone else has control over you device, that person won’t be able to find or use said apps. IOS developers Devvix and nicho1asdev wanted to do something about this, and after happening upon a snazzy new concept by work ensued and a new jailbreak tweak dubbed Spore was later conceived and is now available to the general public. Privacy is a valuable thing, and while iPhones can be secured with a passcode or biometric authentication such as Face ID or Touch ID, many still feel like Apple could do more to improve user privacy - especially for when someone manages to get ahold of your passcode or you hand your unlocked device to another person for one reason or another.
