A new date jailbreak tweak adds the date to your iPhone’s status bar.

If you’re looking to improve your iPhone’s status bar with a more detailed time display, then we think there’s a modest chance you’ll just check out a recently released and free jailbreak tweak called “Date Bar”from iOS developer ElioFegh.

The new date bar jailbreak setting simply replaces the basic time display with one that shows the date and time on a single text line.

Due to the amount of text displayed here with the date bar, we think it looks best on phones without a notch due to all the available space in the center of the status bar on those devices, however the tweak is certainly compatible with phones with a notch. as you will see in the example screenshot below:

To fit in the small pocket to the left of the notch on affected phones, the date bar automatically scales the date and time display text so it doesn’t truncate or shorten the displayed information.

Unfortunately, the date bar does not currently provide any options to customize the date and time format, which may help resolve any size issues associated with notched devices, but this can always change in a future update.

If you’re interested in adding a date to the status bar time display with the new date bar jailbreak tweak, be sure to check it out for yourself. It is available as a free download from Elio Feg’s personal repository via any package manager app of your choice and supports jailbroken iOS 12, 13 and 14 devices.
