Today I discovered a little trick on how to use the new iPhoto app on your jailbroken 5.0.1 device. It’s very simple.

How to install iPhoto on 5.0.1:

2. After you have Installous installed, open it.

3. Search “iPhoto”

4. Click download, select where you want to download it, and let it install.

After the download is finished, you’ll notice that if you try to open it, the app will close out after 1 second.

7. After it download and installs it, you’ll be prompted to respring your device.
