Guys, if you are dealing with the safe mode issue, do this:
delete /var/mobile/Library/Preferences/com.filippobiga.springtomize3.plist
The dev just tweeted this and it worked beautifully
Good advice!! Worked for me too! Was having safe mode issues, running 7.1 b3, iPhone 5c. Working flawlessly on an iPad air also running 7.1 b3...
Just installed Springtomize 3 on my iPhone 5S, and have two issues:
1. does anybody know what Folders->Unblurred Icon is supposed to do? I cannot detect any difference when I enable it. The description says "do not blur the background of the icon" which I was hoping meant that the icon for "closed" folders would just show the app thumbnails, and not have the grey background, but it does not seem to have that effect or any other than I can notice.
2. I have not had success trying to increase the number of rows in my folders. Increasing the number of columns works as expected, but when I increase the number of rows, it crowds together my rows vertically (so the icons partially cover the labels of the icons in the row above) but I still cannot put more than three rows worth of icons on any folder page.
Is there some other adjustment that is necessary to make this work? I previously had installed FolderEnhancer, along with IconSupport, but I uninstalled them both before installing Springtomize. Do I need to get rid of some left over IconSupport preferences? I would really prefer Springtomize over FolderEnhancer because I would like 3x4 folders (3 columns, 4 rows) but FolderEnhancer only allows 3x3 or 4x4, no 3x4.
However, FolderEnhancer also has a nice feature that is missing from Springtomize: with FolderEnhancer you can set it so that if you open a folder, launch an app, then go back to springboard, the folder you had previously opened will be closed. I like that, and am surprised it is not an option in Springtomize 3. Unless it is and I am just not noticing where it is? Or perhaps it is something that he will add in a future update.

I uninstalled it. Had troubles with customizing the icon layout and folders. I'll just wait for a update lol
You can delete the plist files with iCleaner Pro or navigating to var>Mobile>library>caches using iFile or iFunBix. If you use iFile, don't forget to empty your trash.
It has very bad layout for folders on the ipad when in landscape mode. Also, when increasing the rows inside folders, it actually allows one less than specified (I had it on 4 but it only allowed 3 rows). The badge apps are also messed up in the dock and they hide behind the icon. Also causes Flex icon to disappear amongst other bugs. Very buggy
just get icon renamer too, its free and you can do it manually to whatever you want
I got it working. There are a couple kinks that need to be worked out but overall its working fine
Don't try to hide any apps with it though as stated above.
Thanks just bought the upgrade.
I dunno, guys. I've had no problem hiding apps with Springtomize3 with no safe mode issue. YMMV.
The only issue I have is that the Springtomize entry in the list of apps seems to be multiplying…first to two and three…and now ten entries for Springtomize. Strange.

Hahah, so much this. I literally went on an uninstall spree, it literally replaces all of my individual standalone tweaks.
Me too, plus I think I may have deleted too much (read the suggestion above with the developer's tweet) with iFile as had serious flaws showing up. Simply deleted it but will happily reenlist once the bugs are worked out.
so gridlock doesn't work with this? I deleted like 10 things so i am happy but now my widgets are pointless lol
I'm still using Gridlock with Springtomize 3. But I'm staying away from 2 Springtomize tweaks that may conflict...hide icons and animations speed. I did have safe mode issues when I tried those tweaks.
Anyone take upon themselves to notify the fellas over at Reddit? I'd hate to think of them as being in the dark.
i think you can use activator to disable the gesture to activate notification center
edit: nevermind, can't seem to get it to work
