Osushi IPA: Free Control Center for TrollStore devices on iOS
straight_tamago released without any announcement a new TrollStore app that brings a new Control Center to all compatible devices with some additional features. Osushi is a great app showing the possibilities of interacting with the SpringBoard and adding some cool features to iOS without a jailbreak environment.
How to download Osushi IPA for TrollStore
Osushi was released as an IPA package that can be installed on supported devices with TrollStore. It is compatible with all iOS versions supported by opa334's TrollStore (i.e. iOS 14.0 - 17.0). You can't sideload Osushi IPA with other IPA installers. Download links to the latest version are available on this webiste.
What is Osushi for TrollStore?
Osushi for TrollStore is a new application by straight_tamago that enables a new Control Center on the Home Screen and Lock Screen. I was really surprised that straight_tamago delivered this kind of functionality for devices without jailbreak. What's more, the Osushi app can also be closed in the background and still work.
Once installed, activating the Osushi Control Center is simple. Just open the app from your Home Screen, and you'll see a colored border (EdgeLight) appear around the edges of your iPhone — a sign that Osushi is active. To access the Control Center, just swipe from the right edge of your screen to the left. This brings up the Osushi Control Center with all its features. You can access it from both the Home Screen and the Lock Screen.
The CC displays several quick-access toggles, such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Cellular, and Airplane mode, allowing users to manage their network settings. Other toggles include options for Dark Appearance, Location services, and Lock Orientation. Unlike the default iOS behavior that only disconnects Wi-Fi and Bluetooth services temporarily, Osushi allow you to truly disable Wi-Fi and Bluetooth directly from the CC, just like RealCC.
Osushi Features: A New Control Center for iOS Devices
Features like Auto Brightness, True Tone, and Night Shift help manage the display settings. Tools for convenience like Screen Record, Flashlight, and Low Power Mode are also accessible. The design, though familiar, is visually distinct due to the Osushi theme, which adds a personalized touch.
From the Osushi Control Center, you can also navigate through a list of all your installed apps. Additionally, Osushi lets you quickly access recently opened apps, making multitasking more efficient and convenient. This streamlined navigation saves time and helps you easily switch between apps on the go.
I was surprised to find that Osushi works on the Lock Screen as well. Even more impressive is that it replaces the torch icon. When you tap it, instead of the usual flashlight, a new interface appears where you can control the brightness of the lamp, dim the light, or even change the color from white to a warmer tone. It adds a whole new level of customization to the Lock Screen, making it much more functional and personalized.
Advanced Features: Respring, Restart, and More with Osushi
Moreover, the talented straight_tamago also integrated some useful Power Action into the Osushi Control Center. It can be used to respring, restart backboardd, reboot UserSpace, rebuild IconChace, restart CommCenter, turn off EdgeLight, restart and exit AppLauncher.
Osushi is still actively being developed, and as of now, it doesn't even have its app icon. Despite that, it runs smoothly, and there are hints that more features will be added in future updates.
This technology (based on Helium app) can be used to create widgets and add new features to both the Home Screen and Lock Screen — all without needing to jailbreak their devices. However, Osushi is only compatible with devices that support TrollStore, so make sure your device meets that requirement.
If you're looking for a more comprehensive experience, UiharuX is the tool to explore. It offers a range of enhanced features, including multitasking capabilities, a Dynamic Island alternative, and much more. UiharuX comes in two editions: paid and free. Like Osushi, UiharuX can only run when installed with TrollStore.
