Dashboard X is a tweak that allows you to add Notification Center widgets directly to your Springboard, much like Android users can do. To initiate the placement of a new widget, simply place the device into "wiggle mode" by holding down on any app icon, then tap and hold any blank space on the Springboard. Doing so will invoke the Add New Widget dialogue, which allows you to select from any of the available Notification Center widgets already installed on your device. It works seamlessly with iOS, it feels right at home and works perfectly.

While adding widgets right onto your homescreen is definitely the tweak's main draw, there's also a Dashboard mode that can be assigned directly to an Activator action. The Dashboard is a standalone screen that appears via a transparant window overlaying your current screen. You can assign widgets directly to the Dashboard just as you can with the Home screen. Although Dashboard X takes its namesake from this portion of the tweak, it’s more of an afterthought when compared to the ability to add widgets directly to your Home screen. Besides, Notification Center already does a good job as a “dashboard” if that’s the sort of functionality that you’re after.
