Cauxo tweak for jailbreak enables App Switcher for CarPlay for free
If you have a car with CarPlay display support and a jailbroken device, you're in luck! You can install a free jailbreak tweak called Cauxo, which adds an App Switcher to your CarPlay interface, enhancing your driving experience. This tweak is released under the GPL-3.0 license, which means it's free to use.
The tweak looks fantastic and feels like a native, hidden feature of CarPlay, but in reality, it's a fully custom tweak developed by pookjw. It's not often that we see jailbreak tweaks specifically for the CarPlay interface.

What is Cauxo for CarPlay?
Cauxo is a jailbreak tweak that enhances the CarPlay interface by adding a new App Switcher. This allows for easier and quicker navigation through apps. It not only looks great but is also highly functional and intuitive, feeling like something Apple itself could have designed and distributed.
The App Switcher by Cauxo is activated by a special button located on the left side of the CarPlay interface, just beneath the apps on the Dock. When you bring up the Cauxo interface, you're presented with a horizontal view of your recently used apps, complete with preview cards and their app icons.
You can scroll through or tap on any app to open it instantly. Cauxo also provides the option to use gestures on specific apps within the App Switcher to forcefully close them, similar to how you would on an iPhone.
Cauxo tweak was released by pookjw as an open-source project with all files available for download via GitHub. The project is published under GPL-3.0 license, making it free to modify and distribute.
