If you were a fan of a jailbreak tweak called Diet Bulletin by Ryan Petrich in iOS 6, then you’re going to like TinyBar.

As the name suggests, the jailbreak tweak shrinks banner notifications so that they take up as much height as the Status bar, making them a lot less obtrusive.

The text will automatically scroll if there is more information to be displayed in the banner notification.

The tweak doesn’t offer any configuration options, all you need to do is install the tweak to shrink the banner notification.

You can check out the video of the jailbreak tweak to get a better idea:

TinyBar has been developed by Alex Zielenski, developer of Zeppelin, the popular jailbreak tweak that lets you change your iPhone’s carrier logo.

You need to add Zielenski’s repo (http://repo.alexzielenski.com) to Cydia to install the jailbreak tweak. It works fine on the iPhone 5s as well.
