Navale tweak enables a customizable gradient for Dock
Navale, originally developed by Lacertosus, was an excellent jailbreak tweak for iOS 11 – iOS 14 that allowed users to customize the Dock by adding a gradient effect to the background. This version is still available for download through Packix Repo. Because of its open-source nature, a new version for iOS 15 – iOS 16 has been released with support for modern rootless jailbreaks such as Dopamine or Palera1n.
