GridTab for Safari Enables iPad-like Tabs On The iPhone | Cydia Store

Is there’s one thing I can’t stand on Safari for iPhone is the way it displays “tabs”: by default, when you hit the tabs button in the toolbar you’re brought to a page with a “gallery” of all your open pages, and you have to swipe between them to navigate to the site you want to switch to. On the iPad, Safari is much better: it doesn’t display real desktop tabs (although there’s an iCab for that), but at least it presents them as beautiful thumbnails on a dark grid. It’s easier to switch between websites on the iPad because you just have to tap.

GridTab, a new tweak available on the Cydia Store at $0.99, enables iPad-like tab navigation on the iPhone. Once installed, you’ll be able to switch between open pages just like on the iPad by tapping on thumbnails. Very cool.

GridTab is available at $0.99, and I highly recommend it.
