After a month of testing and 19 beta releases, BiteSMS 8.0 is officially released for public. You can also get BiteSMS 8.1 from the test link shared in this post.
For those who use BiteSMS, upgrading to iOS 7 was a painful decision that you likely agonized over for days. On one hand, iOS 7 makes iOS 6 look old and boring so updating your handset is a must. On the other hand, BiteSMS! Those who chose to pull the trigger and update to iOS 7 despite losing BiteSMS can now finally dump Apple’s Messages app and go back to using the jailbreak tweak they love. As of Wednesday, BiteSMS for iOS 7 is out of beta and available to all jailbroken iPhones running iOS 7 or later, including the iPhone 5s.
For those unaware, BiteSMS completely replaces iOS’s standard messaging app with a much more full-featured solution. Users can schedule messages, read and compose messages in a small window on the iPhone without leaving whatever app the might be using at the time, automatically forward messages, use message templates and much more.
BiteSMS for iOS 7 is available immediately on jailbroken iPhones for free in the Cydia app store. The app is ad-supported after a 7-day trial, and users can pay a one-time $7.99 fee to remove ads permanently.
You can get BiteSMS iOS 7 from Cydia from this repo link: test-cydia.bitesms.com. To add a new repo, go to Cydia > Manage > Sources > tap on Edit > and finally tap on Add to add the repo and get the tweak.
