AppUpdateNotifier is a tweak recently published in Cydia that alerts iDevice owners through a push notification when an update appears in the App Store for an application installed in the iDevice itself. Although many people asked for such a system from Apple, here it is now available through a tweak and you will no longer have to open the App Store application to find out if there is an update for an application from the terminal, but you will see directly in LockScreen a notification from AppUpdateNotifier. Notifications will be displayed not only in the LockScreen but everywhere in iOS, so you will always be up to date with everything new in the App Store.
Are you tired of constantly going to the Updates tab in the App Store to find new app updates? Do you hate opening up iTunes only to realize that you've missed updates that were released weeks ago? Now you're in luck. AppUpdateNotifier enables you to automatically receive notifications when new App Store updates are available. You will even receive notifications when your device is locked or asleep. Notifications will be seamlessly presented to you via Apple's built in notifications system. AppUpdateNotifier even integrates with Apple's Notification Center to allow you to easily toggle it on or off and manually check for new updates. You can configure AppUpdateNotifier to check for new App Store updates hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly. In addition, you can configure AppUpdateNotifier to ignore updates for specified apps with the Ignore List.
AppUpdateNotifier has a settings menu in the Settings application of iOS and there you can specify the time interval at which the tweak will query the App Store to see if there are new updates. AppUpdateNotifier is available for $1.49 in Cydia and only works with iOS 5.
