LockFlavors automatically applies a theme to the lock screen upon
installation. To change the default look, you have to head to the
LockFlavors configuration screen. There is a standalone icon on the Home
screen that can be used to choose a theme or create new ones. Most of
the themes available in LockFlavors are simple textures, but there are a
few intricate patterns available in the collection as well. The themes
act on the status bar, the date area, and behind the unlock slider. From
the tweak’s settings menu, you can also choose to put a custom snippet
of text in the unlock slider.

Creating new themes in LockFlavors is pretty easy. There are three
separate sections here: top, bottom and text. In all three, there are
RGB sliders that let you create the exact color you want. To help things
along, there is even a preview shot above the sliders. If you want to
keep things uniform across the top and bottom, there is an option
labeled ‘Auto Match’ available for this purpose. When it comes to fonts,
LockFlavors shows a preview for that as well, with some really good
options available in the list. Once done, hit the ‘Save’ button and give
the custom theme a name.

If you want to get a new look for your iPhone without too much effort, there are tweaks like Sodium capable of
applying photo effects to a wallpaper directly.
LockFlavors doesn’t
do anything to the wallpaper, but every other aspect of the lock screen
can be altered using it. LockFlavors offers several lock screen themes,
applying different colors and patterns to the top and bottom bars of
the lock screen. In addition to these, the tweak also has different
fonts for the time/date display, and even lets you change the text that
appears on the unlock slider. If you aren’t satisfied with any of the
default themes offered in LockFlavors, there is also the option of
creating your own custom themes by mixing colors for each part of the
screen separately, and adding the fonts of your choice.
LockFlavors costs $1.99, which might be a little steep for some people’s
liking. If you think the price is fair though, head to the BigBoss repo
of the Cydia store and grab it.
