Nugget iOS is an open-source desktop customization tool for iPhone, created by leminlimez and distributed through GitHub. It runs on a Windows, macOS or Linux computer connected to the device over USB and applies system-level changes without a jailbreak. The site describes itself as an independent community resource, not Apple and not the official repository.
With Nugget you can reveal hidden system menus, enable Dynamic Island behaviour on iPhones that shipped without it, restyle the Status Bar, and disable background daemons. Its companion Pocket Poster lets you create and manage animated PosterBoard wallpapers on iOS 17 and later. Compatibility depends on your exact iOS sub-version and device model, so the site asks users to check the GitHub compatibility list before applying anything.
It is aimed at iPhone owners who want to change settings Apple does not expose. Because the tool modifies system files, the site recommends backing up the device, turning off Find My before starting, and applying tweaks one at a time so any problem can be traced to a single change.
