Key features include advanced customization tools to modify system-wide UI elements like app icons, status bars, and settings menus without jailbreaking, theming options for custom fonts, color schemes, and app icon reshaping, status bar tweaks to hide battery percentages or adjust Wi-Fi/cellular indicators, flexible icon management to replace default app designs, and restriction bypasses to disable iOS limitations.
Cowabunga IPA leverages vulnerabilities in older iOS versions to enable deep system tweaks, but it’s not available on the App Store. Installation requires sideloading via TrollStore or tools like AltStore, which may pose security risks or violate Apple’s terms of service. Always download IPAs from trusted sources like our website and avoid updating to unsupported iOS versions to maintain functionality.
