The Message Box tweak by Adam Bell to bring Facebook Chat Heads is now available in Cydia with Push Notifications support.

The Facebook app has Chat Heads locked down to being in-app only, this'll help fix that! Take them out of the Facebook app and do whatever you'd like! A manual chat refresh timer is configurable in settings, though keep in mind a shorter delay will decrease battery life.

*Note* It's much easier if you have the Facebook Messenger app either logged-out, or uninstalled. That way you won't get confused with the push notifications.


What's New In This Version:
● (NEW) Push Notification Support, if you have push notifications enabled for Facebook or Facebook Messenger, Message Box will use these to update Chat Heads (instead of manually refreshing).
● (NEW) If you tap a link in chat, it'll open in Safari!
● (NEW) Wicked new icon by @matthewrex!
● Fixed Zephyr Support
● Fixed some UI elements not hiding
● Fixed some animations

You can confirm Message Box from the Settings.app. The tweak can be downloaded free from the Big Boss Cydia Repository.
