AltStore IPA
AltStore IPA – Your Go-To App for Sideloading on iOS
AltStore is a powerful app that lets you install apps on your iPhone or iPad without the App Store. Whether you want to sideload emulators, custom apps, or other tools, AltStore makes the process simple—no jailbreak required!
Unlike traditional sideloading methods, AltStore takes advantage of Apple’s developer features, using your Apple ID to install and refresh apps. It works alongside AltServer, a desktop app that syncs apps to your device via WiFi and iTunes. As long as your device and AltServer are on the same network, your apps stay refreshed in the background, preventing them from expiring.
Key Features:
✅ Wireless App Installation: Install and update apps using AltServer without cables.
✅ Apple ID Signing: Resign and install apps with your own Apple ID.
✅ Auto-Refresh: Prevents apps from expiring when connected to the same WiFi as AltServer.
✅ Built-in App Updates: Manage and update sideloaded apps directly within AltStore.
What’s New?
🚀 Third-Party Sources: Easily add external sources to access even more apps.
🔍 Sources Tab: View and manage all added sources in one place.
📌 Quick Add Source Screen: Preview apps before adding new sources.
📂 Improved App Browsing:

- Explore apps by category or source.

AltStore is designed using standard iOS frameworks, making it familiar to developers while offering a simple and powerful way for users to install and manage apps on their devices.
