LockMessages is a great new app and the best feature of this new tweak is that it allows you to customize the alerts you receive on your lockscreen or through the Notification Center. You can change the sender�s name to something neutral and you can also change the title to a generic sequence of characters which safeguards all your sensitive details.
In addition to the above, you can also set a passcode to your Messages.app which gives you even more privacy and protection. If you want to safeguard your messages you can get LockMessages from the BigBoss repository for just 99 cents. If you do purchase this app the settings are configured in the Settings.app because there is no Springboard icon with this. Also it is worth noting that this app is for iOS 5 only so if you want the extended privacy that it offers you will have to have the latest operating system on your idevice.
In order to use LockMessages you will need a jailbroken iOS 5 device and there are numerous ways to do this such as using Redsn0w and you can find all the details including step by step tutorials right here on our blog. If you want to protect your text messages from prying eyes and you have an iOS 5 device then this great little Cydia Tweak could be just the thing you have been looking for.
