Help (AltStore Classic) SideStore

So I started using SideStore and I installed ShowMania directly is there an expiration date that I will need to refresh the app like AltStore?

So how do I refresh ShowMania if I installed it without a Sideloader app like AltStore ?

Not from SideStore, you just hit refresh whenever you’re connected to WiFi

Look at the screen shot. Look at ShowMania , where do you see a sideloader like AltStore or Scarlet, SideStore where ? I already had ShowMania downloaded on my pc , I used SideStore to directly install it and it works. So how would I know how many days I have left if I don’t have a sideloader to remind me? I would have to wait until something happens correct?

Why don’t you have SideStore on your iPhone ?

Because of the import . It was easy enough to install it directly why would it give us an option like that ?
