MessageHeads Brings Systemwide Chat Heads For Messages App

MessageHeads is the tweak many of you have been waiting for. Developer Ian Burns has been hard at working on MessageHeads, and today it launched on the Cydia Store. MessageHeads brings systemwide (global) Facebook style chat heads for the messages App. A similar tweak, Message Box was released a few months ago, but it was only for the Facebook app.

The chat heads operate like Facebook's featuring an icon of the person you're messaging. You can tap the chat head and a message bubble pops up where you can text away. To close the chat head, you simply drag it to the dock where an 'x' appears.

MessageHeads brings Facebook’s Chat Head style chat bubbles to the Messages app.

You can configure options from settings and the tweak even works with BiteSMS. The tweak does require iOS 7 and is available for $2.49 in the Cydia Store.
