SideStore
SideStore is a powerful sideloading tool that lets you install apps on your iPhone or iPad without relying on the App Store. It uses your Apple ID to sign apps, allowing you to install emulators, tweaked apps, and other tools that Apple normally restricts.
One of its biggest advantages is removing the 3-app limit, so you can install multiple IPA apps at once. Plus, it supports iOS 14 through the latest iOS 18+, making it a reliable option for a wide range of devices.
Why Use SideStore?
✅ No Computer Needed After Setup – Install and refresh apps directly from your iPhone or iPad.
✅ Supports More Apps – Unlike other sideloading methods, SideStore lets you install up to 10 apps at once.
✅ Works with LiveContainer – Ensures smooth, hassle-free installations, letting you easily install multiple IPA apps at once.
✅ Supports Custom Sources – Add third-party repositories for even more apps.
✅ No Jailbreak Required – Safe and easy to use on stock iOS.
With SideStore, sideloading is easier than ever, giving you more control over the apps you install on your device. 🚀
