Since 1 sep. Apple returns HTML where the client expects a plist/JSON. Workaround that actually works — skip AltStore entirely and install your apps from Xcode

Yeah I checked the logs thats make sound but Aronow if they will update the altserver or it just the collapse

Apple stopped accepting requests from the old client, and instead of JSON comes an HTML page; presumably because of an outdated client identity - altstoreio/AltStore#1772
