DailyIcons

DailyIcons is a free application developped for Cydia users that allow you to change your Calendar's icons themes every day, allowing you to create wonderful setup on your iDevice !

Two DailyIcons themes are included by default with the tweak (you can find them at /Library/Application Support/DailyIcons/Default DailyIcons and Default 2nd DailyIcons. They have been created by my friend, a talented theme maker called Franchitouch. Big thanks to him ;) )

See instructions below for how to use it and for creating your own themes.

 

 

How to use DailyIcons

1) Download your DailyIcons theme in Cydia

2) Apply it through the DailyIcons's settings page and Respring

3) Enjoy your beautiful icons ;)

 

How to create a cydia package for your DailyIcons Theme

If you want to submit your DailyIcons theme to Cydia, you have to create a package that contain the 31 png, one for each day of the month (simply create 31 png, DailyIcons will know if the 31th have to be shown)

The package must have the following file structure :

 

 

                                     /DEBIAN (where the control file have to be and potential scripts)

                                     /Library

                                                  /Application Support

                                                               /DailyIcons

                                                                            /Your Theme folder (example: 0bvious DailyIcons, you can name it as you want)

                                                                                         Here place your 31 png files that will be loaded by DailyIcons to show any date change. PLEASE NOTE: There is no need to create several png for several devices (@2x, @3x), DailyIcons will apply the icons normally for your resolution. But for this, you have to create your png with the highest possible resolution (180px => iPhone 6/6S Plus icons' resolution), thanks to that, your theme will be compatible with all iOS devices ;)

 

Actually, the icons are shown with an offset of two pixels in addition (almost invisible to naked eyes). To solve this, you can create your icons with a resolution of 178 pixels and put 2 pixels of transparency all around of it (for having a png of 180x180 pixels). Thanks to that, your icons will have the same size as the others on the SpringBoard

 

If you want concrete examples, go to the /Library/Application Support/DailyIcons folder and look at the default included themes (Default DailyIcons and Default 2nd DailyIcons). I will soon publish a download link for you to have a template for creating your own theme easily !

 

How to test your DailyIcons theme on your device before submitting, without creating .deb package

Simply put your Theme folder under /Library/Application Support/DailyIcons/ and select it under DailyIcons's settings page
