How to Add a Repo in Cydia?

[sgmb id=”1″]Downloading tweaks from Cydia is easy but sometimes these tweaks are available on their respective private repositories only. Developers add their tweaks to their repositories only so you have to add the repo and then download the tweak from it. By these repositories you can download the paid or free tweaks. Adding a new repo in Cydia isn’t that hard and below are two methods to add a repo in Cydia.

Method #1:

This first method is done through Cydia app and doesn’t require the link for the repo. *Cydia is a must for this method.

1. Launch Cydia from Home Screen.
2. At the bottom of the screen you will find a menu, from there tap on star icon.
3. Now from the next screen tap on More Package Sources box which you can find below the Tss Center(shsh & APTicket) box.
4. A list of sources will come up, from there select the required source/repo or any repo that you wish to install.
5. Tap on the source that you want to install and on the next screen tap on Install which is present on upper right hand of screen.
6. A confirmation window will popup, tap on confirm to continue.
7. Wait for a while and the soruce/repo will be added then tap on Return to Cydia to head back to Cydia.

This method is easy and doesn’t requires the url of the source/repo but sometimes there is a particular repo that we have to install. So, that method is given below.

Method #2:

This method is for manual addition of source/repo.

1. Launch Cydia.
2. From the botton menu tap on sources.
3. You will Edit option on upper right hand of screen, tap on it.
4. From the next screen tap on add which is also present on upper right hand of screen.
5. A pop-up will appear and it will ask to  Enter Cydia/APT URL. In that box type or put the URL of the source or repo that you want ot add.
6. Wait for a while and that source or repo will be added. Sometimes it might ask for a confirmation, tap on Add Anyway to continue. Tap on Return to Cydia to head back to Cydia.
