The Siri tweaks just keep on rolling in! But this time, it’s possibly the most amazing and most advanced Siri tweak we have ever seen for the iPhone 4S and any other device you have that has Siri on it. There are so many things AssistantExtentions can do that the other Siri tweaks can’t do. Not only that, this tweak is all of those tweaks combined into one amazing tweak.
There are lots of things AssistantExtensions can do, so let’s break this down. All of the options VoiceUtils and SiriToggles can do are already integrated into Assistant Extension such as changing brightness and toggling switches.
One of the best things about AssistantExtensions is that it comes with a guide to making your own extensions/plugins for this tweak. So if you had a great idea and wanted to submit it as an extension in Cydia or to just use your own plugin, you can check out the guide and it teaches you how to go about this process.
ChatBot
To enable the ChatBot option, all you have to do is tell Siri, “let’s chat”. Once that is said, Siri will load up the preloaded database that will allow you to have an actual conversation with Siri regarding topics like food, movies, books. To exit the “Let’s Chat” mode and get normal responses and use the normal Siri functionality, all you have to say is “Goodbye” and that queues Siri to exit the ChatBot.
Tweet Using Siri
Unlike Sireet (a.k.a TwitMonster), when asking to send a tweet, you can actually view and edit your tweet before sending it off. If you were to send a tweet and you want it to go through quickly, just say “Tweet” and then your message. If you want the tweet to go through after viewing it first, say “Show Tweet” and then your message. Then your message will be displayed right from the Siri GUI and you can edit and send once done.
Toggles
If you want to know which toggles are on to see if you need to diable any. All you have to do is say “List Toggles” or “List Switches” and Siri will list out all of the toggles on the iOS and show if they are enabled or disabled. Then you can turn on or off any toggles by saying “Turn on” or “Turn off” and then the toggle name.
YouTube
If you want to look up a YouTube video and you at least know the title and maybe what the thumbnail looks like, you can view YouTube videos right in the Siri GUI. To do this, all you have to do is say “Search (whatever) On YouTube” and it will pull up a list of YouTube videos. Choose one, and you will be redirected to the native YouTube app and you can immediately start watching the video! Here’s what the GUI looks like.
That’s pretty much what AssistantExtensions can do. There are a tweaks being made right now that you install from Cydia and they are added to the AssistantExtensions tweak to form the ultimate Siri tweak! This tweak is so revolutionary and what makes it even better is that it is free in Cydia! Since this is a jailbreak tweak available in Cydia, you’ll need to do an untethered jailbreak for your device. You can use GreenPois0n Absinthe to jailbreak iPhone 4S running iOS 5.0.1 or iOS 5.
