It’s a highly-customizable status bar modification that lets you remove, rearrange, redesign, or replace your status bar icons. Protean is a tweak that’s designed to solve all of these problems. Neither are universally visible at a glance. New emails, Twitter notifications, missed calls, voicemails, unread text messages, and more are all pertinent information that I would love to be able to see at a glance, but as things are now, I have to back out to the home screen and look for badges on app icons or use Notification Center. On the other hand, there are icons that I would love to see in my status bar, but Apple has decided against adding. I can check Control Center if I really need to know, which I never have. And if you use the Apple Watch, it’s a requirement to stay connected so you’re likely never disabling it.

I don’t need to see an icon in my status bar reminding me that Bluetooth is running.

When I get in my car, it automatically connects, and I don’t have to futz around with anything. Currently, there’s no way to get rid of that.īluetooth is another example.

I know this, and I don’t need to see a constant reminder in my status bar that I have active alarms. I’ve got alarms set for every day of the week. One example that I often use to highlight this problem is the alarm icon. New icons have been added, and they’ve all been redesigned at least once, but there hasn’t been a meaningful reexamination of what actually goes in the status bar. The iPhone status bar has undergone very few changes since the first model shipped in 2007.
