How to set any springboard page as a default page

DefaultSBPage is a brand new jailbreak tweak, and it does something fairly awesome. It allows you to select a default Home screen page to land on once your iPhone is unlocked.

Say you have a particular page dedicated to an often used selection of apps; well, instead of having to swipe over to that page every time you unlock your iPhone, you can set that page as the default page. This will force the iPhone to open directly to the page you utilize the most.

As you can probably tell, DefaultSBPage is an extremely simple tweak in function, but it provides some serious utility. Take a look inside for our full video walkthrough, which showcases it in action.

Once installed, head over to the Settings app, and open up DefaultSBPage’s preference panel. In the preferences, which are extremely simple, you’ll find a kill switch, and a list of pages that you can set as default. You even have the ability to open up the iPhone’s Spotlight page as default, if you wish to configure it that way.

If you couldn’t already tell, I really like this jailbreak tweak, and it’s absolutely perfect for custom theme users. If you want to give it a try, head over to Cydia’s BigBoss repo, and download it for $0.99. Let us know what you think in the comment section below.
