Enabling the Secret Multitouch Gestures on iOS 4.3



I successfully tried this yesterday. There's a way to reenable the aborted multitouch gestures on an iPad 1 or 2 on iOS 4.3 without jailbreaking it. This secret "hack" requires Xcode 4 (5$ in the Mac App store) or just try what I did. I signed up as a Free Apple Developer and downloaded Xcode 3.2.6 for free here:

Multitouch gestures are cool because you could use 4 and 5 finger pinches and swipes to close apps, activate the multitasking bar or even fast switch between apps.Really awesome stuff! Too bad Apple decided to hide it from the public for now.
