WinterBoard is an extension for the iPhone that allows users to customize the graphics and sounds on their device.

Step Eight
Once the iPhone has rebooted you will notice a new WinterBoard icon. Press the icon on your SpringBoard to launch the application.

Step Nine
You will notice a list of features that can be turned on and off. We will take you through each feature and show you what it does.
