“The name is a play on “Beryl”, which is both a mineral and the name of a Linux window manager that got merged with Compiz. Compiz was an inspiration for making this icon effect, if you haven’t seen it’s awesomeness in action, I’d highly recommend checking it out.”

This Barrel tweak app is inspired from the Compiz effect developed for Linux OS which scrolls between pages, instead this tweak app for iOS devices scrolls between different sides of cube (springboard).
