iPhone enthusiast! Did you think moving apps and the SpringBoard was impossible? 😯 Mysterious things are happening on your iPhone & iPod Touch screen. Teeth attack when you touch the screen, icons move on their own, the screen suddenly rotates, and only you have the power over these abnormal things. With a multitude of tricks at your fingertips, you'll want to try them out on your friends right away. Only you can work magic on your iPhone & iPod Touch! 😉


How do I put the Trix in?

1- Here are two download links for Trix. Both contain the same file and work equally well; one is from Megaupload and the other from RapidShare. Choose your favorite:

2- Save the file to your PC

save2

3- They go to the path where they saved the file

4- Once there, you will see the file. It is a compressed file called "Trix".

5. Unzip it. If you don't know how, just right-click on the file, then (depending on your version of WinZip) you'll see an option that says "Extract here". Just click this option and the file will be unzipped.

6- As I mentioned in the video, when you unzip the file you will see four folders: iPhone, iTouch, TouchTrix and the last one that I didn't mention in the video, iWash

6.1- iPhone: These are Trix that obviously have the SpringBoard of an iPhone and in my opinion, they are not good, on the contrary, I would rate them as bad 😕, but still, there are people who like them, and that is respected, and here they are.

6.2- iTouch: Same as the previous folder, but with the difference that there are far fewer Trix (I think there are only two or three 😆) and that they are obviously using the SpringBoard of a Touch.

6.3 - TouchTrix: These trixes are a whole different ballgame; they're more believable and better made than the previous trixes. The only downside I see is that, unfortunately, everyone has an iPhone SpringBoard (that's why I made up the theme in the video; you could say the same if you have a Touch), but they're still a whole different ballgame. These trixes tell you, through the image of the drum kit (in the upper right corner of the SpringBoard), when you should act. You'll have to memorize each trix well to know how and what you're going to do, so it looks like you can actually play with your iPhone/iTouch SpringBoard.

"Do The Hudson" are the creators of these Trix games; they're the same creators of the magnificent game "Crayon Physics Deluxe." They created Trix games using the Touch's SpringBoard. Unfortunately, I couldn't find them, but you can still check and you might find one or two. Do The Hudson is still uploading Trix games, so here's the link to their website:

6.4- iWash: Guys, you already know what iWash is, girls in bikinis cleaning our screen in a really sexy way, unfortunately I only found two, but I added one more that is not from iWash but check it out, you won't regret it.

7- These Trix are simply video clips, and you transfer them to your iPhone/iTouch the same way you would transfer a video or a movie. If you don't know how:
7.1- Open iTunes

7.2 - Connect your iPhone/iTouch. When iTunes recognizes your device, it will appear in the "Devices" section, under "Store," above "Playlist" on the left side of iTunes.
