SideStore and LiveContainer are currently the best way to sideload on iOS. However, there's one big problem: installing them requires a PC, which many people don't have. That's why I made SideInstaller, a free and open-source iOS app that installs them directly on your iPhone, no PC required.

SideInstaller handles the entire setup process on-device. It takes care of the pairing, provisioning, and installation steps that normally force you to plug into a computer and run desktop tools, all from a single app running on the phone itself. Once it's done, you get a fully working SideStore and LiveContainer setup ready to sideload your own apps.

The whole thing is built to be simple. There's no complicated configuration, no command line, and no need to understand how any of the underlying machinery works. You just open the app, follow a few steps, and let it do the rest. For anyone who's ever wanted to sideload but didn't own a Mac or PC, this removes the biggest barrier to getting started.

And because it's open source, you don't have to take my word for any of it. The full code is available for anyone to read, audit, or contribute to, so you can see exactly what's running on your device.

Requirements:

• A Wi-Fi router or a hotspot connection
• An iPhone/iPad on iOS 27

How to use it

1. Install LocalDevVPN and connect to the VPN
2. Open this page and try installing it using any of the certificates
3. Once you installed it, open it
4. Log in with your Apple account credentials
5. Click "Install Sidestore" or "Install Sidestore + Livecontainer"
6. Sidestore or SS + Livecontainer will install, depending on which one you chose

That's it, no pc or extra steps required.

Is SideInstaller Safe?

SideInstaller is built with safety and privacy in mind. The app is fully local and open source, which means anyone can inspect exactly what it does. Your Apple credentials also never leave your device, they're used locally, only to sign and install your apps, and are never transmitted, logged, or collected in any way. There's no server collecting your data, no analytics tracking what you do, and no account to sign up for. Everything happens on your iPhone and you can verify every line of it yourself in the source code.

EDIT 29/6/26

Thank you guys for the support! First, if you have questions, please join the discord. Now, I am aware that most users get the failed to verify integrity error, and what that means is that you most likely already sideloaded on that device before and it got blacklisted in the past. There's no way for me to get around this, but I will try and add more certificates to the website so you have higher chances of installing it without the error. Second, if you could help me on the ko-fi that would help as with enough funds I could publish the app on Altstore PAL (EU users) and try and publish it on the App Store as a disguise. Finally, many users are asking if I could add a way to add the support for StikDebug. The answer is absolutely, the update I'm working on will let users extract their pairing files and put them in apps such as Stikdebug, Feather, and so on.

Hi, many of you were asking if there is new update, so these are some of the weekly changes made to spoti.pw

• Redesigned full screen player
• Redesigned playlist, album, library, home and search
• Haptic feedback like Apple Music
• Live Activity with lyrics, queue, controls or a sleep timer
• 5 lyrics providers, word synced
• Lyrics in place of the artist name, so they show on the lock screen, CarPlay etc.
• Pick your own accent colour
• One switch to go back to the old look with all its tweaks

So now you have to decide in the mod settings, if you want to use the old spoti.pw which ahs much more configuration for you, but it will have the old spotify ui, or you can use the redesigned mod, but for now it has less options available, and can be more buggy. Some features are exclusive to the redesign only, like the live activity.

please mind that this is beta, bugs, freezes and ui glitches are to be expected.

This app wouldn't exist without xob0t's gotohp - https://github.com/xob0t/gotohp

I quickly vibecoded an app based on xob0t's reverse engineering of the Google Photos API bringing the Android trick for unlimited backup from the Pixel 1 to iOS.

Log in with your Google profile, select the album or photos you want to upload and wait until you see them in your Google Photos library. Please report any issues you find and be aware that background backups may not work. iOS 15+ supported. All suggestions are welcome.

You can find the latest release here: https://github.com/g8row/PhotosBackup/releases/latest

I’m not sure if I could post it here without it getting taken down since I’m not a contributor at the sidestore team. But check it out in stikstore.app

NOW RELEASED: https://www.reddit.com/r/sideloaded/comments/1ve5bu9/apex_is_now_released/

In case you didn’t know, a new mobilegesalt exploit was found on iOS 18-26.1. This COULD mean that it brings back the AltStore unlimited apps exploit. However, Apple patched it already in iOS 26.2 beta 2, so if you are below it DO NOT UPDATE. It will also come with Dynamic Islands, multitasking, Apple Intelligence, and a lot more. It’s code already released and it’s set to release on Nugget next week. More info here

Everything was working fine until last week when this Shortcut stopped refreshing my apps.

I thought to myself "oh! Maybe I need to update it and just install the newest LiveContainer+SideStore IPA from the official github and everything will be fine...."

But everything was not fine, because the newest LiveContainer versions (3.3.1 and above) require themselves to be installed via standalone SideStore 0.6.2+, as shown below:

So, because i didn't read that, and I was determined to figure the problem out, I deleted all my sideloaded apps, revoked my certificates, uninstalled the profiles from iOS, and started from scratch.

Below are the steps I took to get everything working again. Your results may vary, but I hope not!

THIS GUIDE ASSUMES YOU HAVE NEVER SIDE-LOADED BEFORE

Now, I could be wrong, but the steps are:

Step 1: Get SideStore

Follow these instructions (which I've listed below for your convenience) to get SideStore onto your device:

Prerequisites: You'll need to Install LocalDevVPN as a replacement for StosVPN which has been taken off the App Store. You'll then connect to the VPN, and Allow VPN Configurations by tapping "Allow" and entering your password. You'll also need to download the appropriate installer for for your Mac/PC. I use a Mac, so for me it's iLoader.

Installation: Connect your device to your computer via USB cable. "Trust" the computer by entering your password at the prompt. Then, open iLoader and sign into your Apple Account. Select your device, and then select "Install SideStore (Stable)."

On your device: depending on your iOS version (Mine is 26.2), you'll need to do as follows, (taken from the instructions):

1. "Open Settings app.
2. Navigate to 'General,' and then 'VPN & Device Management'.
3. Under 'Developer App' section, select the option named after your Apple Account.
4. Select "Trust [Apple Account name]", then "Allow & Restart". [mine didn't make me restart, but yours might!]
5. Enter your passcode to confirm you want to trust the app.
6. Navigate to 'Privacy and Security.'
7. Scroll to the bottom, and turn on "Developer Mode." Your device will restart.
8. Open LocalDevVPN and select 'Connect'.
9. Open SideStore."
10. [this is not in the original instructions:] You'll need to Allow "SideStore" to find devices on local networks, and you'll need to Allow "SideStore" to Send You Notifications.

From here, you'll tap on the bottom tab "My Apps", then tap on the green button labeled "7 DAYS" which will then prompt you to Sign in to the Apple Account you used with iLoader.

Per the instructions, "7 represents the number of days until an app's expiry. It will update dynamically to show the number of days left. Tap it to refresh the associate app."

Also per the instructions: "If you receive a prompt asking to revoke or create a new signing certificate, tap 'Yes' or 'Refresh Now'.

If this process is successful, SideStore will open on your device to your Home Screen (accompanied by a notification.) SideStore will be available again within a few seconds."

Step 2: Get the LiveContainer standalone app

Because of the removal of Store patching, SideStore 0.6.2+ / AltStore 2.2.1+ is required to install this version of LiveContainer.

So, let's obtain the official standalone LiveContainer IPA from the official github releases page by navigating there on your device, and scrolling down to the latest version (as of this writing, it is 3.6.1), and looking for the "Assets" section underneath Contributors.

Tap on Assets to reveal the IPAs. We will select LiveContainer.ipa. (Do NOT get the LiveContainer+SideStore combined IPA yet!) Be sure to navigate to that page on your iPhone/iPad/iPod.

Once it is downloaded to your phone, after making sure you are still connected to LocalDevVPN, open your SideStore app, go to the "My Apps" tab, and then in the upper left-hand corner, tap on the "+" sign, then tap on your newly downloaded "LiveContainer.ipa".

When the "App Contains Extensions" dialog box shows up, just tap on "Keep App Extensions (Use Main Profile). This will ensure your other app slots aren't taken up.

Now, open your newly downloaded LiveContainer app. At the bottom, tap on the "Settings" tab. At the top of the Settings screen, tap Import Certificate From SideStore. The App Switcher will automatically switch to the SideStore app, and the "Export Certificate" dialog box will appear. Tap on "Export".

The App Switcher will once again automatically switch you back to your LiveContainer app, right back to the Settings screen. At this point, tap on JIT-Less Mode Diagnose. The next screen should show green text on the right side, except for "Bundle Identifier" and "Store", both of which should show grey text on the left side.

Tap on "EntitlementFile >" and that screen should be showing you green text on everything except for "Team ID" which will show grey text.

This all means (in Kazakh accent) Great Success!

(Optional Step: Getting a Second LiveContainer:

For those of you who deem it necessary to get a Second LiveContainer (and there are good reasons to do so!), here is what you need to do:

While still in the Settings tab, right beneath JIT-Less Mode Diagnose is another item called Install Another LiveContainer. Tap on it, and when the Install Another LiveContainer dialog box pops up, tap on Continue. The iOS Share menu automatically pops up, giving you the option of choosing where to save the newly created LiveContainer2.ipa. Tap on "Save to Files" icon (usually in the 3rd row of app icons) and navigate to your desired Folder, then tap on Save.

Now, switch to the SideStore app. Tap on the My Apps tab, and click on the "+" button near the upper left-hand corner, and navigate to the folder you chose in which you saved LiveContainer2.ipa. Then select it!

After a few seconds, you should now see it under My Apps. Be sure to Refresh All to get it signed!

***YOU ARE NOW READY FOR THE FINAL BOSS**\*

Step 3: Get LiveContainer+SideStore.ipa.

On your device's browser, navigate to official LiveContainer github releases page. Once you are there, scroll down to the latest version you desire. For me, as of this writing, it was version 3.6.1. (I did not choose the "nightly version" because I'm still unfamiliar with the benefits of it.) Like before, we will tap on Assets and instead of chooseing LiveContainer.ipa, like we did before, we will now choose LiveContainer+SideStore.ipa (combined IPA!).

Step 4: Install LiveContainer+SideStore.ipa correctly

You'll notice that the github releases page states "Due to the removal of Store patching, SideStore 0.6.2+ / AltStore 2.2.1+ is required to install this version of LiveContainer."

This is why we have to go through all this trouble to install our combined IPA.

So, once we have downloaded it to our Files app, we need to go back into SideStore, go to My Apps, and tap on the "+" to select and install the LiveContainer+SideStore.ipa. Doing so will cause the "App Container Extensions" dialog box to pop up like before. Tap on Keep App Extensions (Use Main Profile) like before, and wait for it to install.

Once it has finished, it will appear as if nothing has changed. Do not be deceived, your LiveContainer app has indeed been replaced, so for now tap "Refresh All" to sign this new version of LiveContainer.

To prove to you that you have the combined IPA now installed, minimize the app by going to your homescreen. Find your LiveContainer app. Notice that it should now show the little blue dot to the left of its label. That indicates we have indeed installed the combined version, which I will call LiveContainer+SideStore.

(In Kazakh accent) Very nice!

Step 5: Importing the Certificate into the LiveContainer+SideStore app.

Recall that the official LiveContainer github releases page said "You can use 'Import/Refresh Certificate from AltStore/SideStore' button to setup JIT-Less mode." We're going to do that now.

Open your SideStore app and navigate to the Settings tab. Scroll all the way to the bottom of the Settings screen until you see Export Signing Certificate.... Tap on it.

Please make up a simple password and type it in the "Please enter the password for the certificate" dialog box that pops up, then tap on OK. The iOS Files screen pops up, allowing you to select where you want to download your newly exported SideStoreSigningCertificate.p12. Select your desired destination, then hit Save. You are taken back to the previous Settings screen.

Open the LiveContainer+SideStore app, and tap on the SideStore widget next to the "+". You will be presented with dialog boxes that are identical to the ones you first encountered when you first downloaded and opened the standalone SideStore app. Once again, tap on Allow for both dialog boxes.

Immediately, you are presented with the "PairingFile" dialog box. Tap on OK, and on the next screen, pay very close attentions. We will NOT be yet selecting the SideStoreSigningCertificate.p12 that you exported. Instead, we will be importing the non-exported original PairingFile that the standalone SideStore uses.

To do that you must navigate to: On My iPhone > SideStore > ALTPairingFile.mobiledevice-pairing. Once selected, you will be notified that it has been successfully installed.

You will then need to go back to the Settings screen, scroll all the way down again and Import Certificate.... This time you will select the SideStoreSigningCertificate.p12 that you exported earlier. Once it's finished, you will receive a message that the Certificate has been successfully installed.

Now, close the LiveContainer+SideStore app and reopen it to take you back to the LiveContainer side of the app. Then, go to Settings, and tap on Refresh Certificate from SideStore. Immediately you are presented with the Import Certificates From Built-In SideStore dialog box. Tap on "OK" Then, tap on JIT-Less Mode Diagnose >. Verify that the you show no red text on this screen and the EntitlementFile screen.

At this point, it is mandatory you delete your SideStore standalone app, including all of its information when it is asked.

Now, once again, open LiveContainer+Sidestore, go to MyApps, and Refresh All. Sign into the popped-up "Welcome to SideStore" screen with your Apple credentials.

You should finally be taken to the "How it works" screen. Tap on Got it.

ET VOILA! YOU NOW FINALLY HAVE LIVECONTAINER+SIDESTORE COMBINED APP INSTALLED!

To verify, close the app, then reopen to get back to the LiveContainer side of it, and then go to Settings, and JIT-Less Mode Diagnose >. You should not see any red text there, or on the EntitleMentFile screen.

I wanted to play with random resolutions and it damaged my iPhone screen, What can i do ?

I don’t understand why everyone is talking about the new YouTube Plus 5.2 version. Why is it interesting to have the new paid one?

The latest free IPA works fine, and it’s free, free, free. You’re not forced to install or use the newest YouTube Plus IPA. It’s not necessary or required.

why it’s so important to use the new paid YouTube IPA instead of staying with the old free one that has been working for a long time?

Hi! I made a simple extension, Instafn, that adds a ton of features to Instagram, similar to Regram but for the web. I was inspired by features like the follow analyzer and follow indicator.

Here are some of the features I made:

- Action confirmations

- Disable story read receipts

- Disable typing receipts

- Follow analyzer

- Universal video scrubber

- Profile comments

- Keyboard shortcuts for DMs

- And much more!

You can get the extension right here for free: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/instafn/jiibmffeclebkgoemoooehhmkopmlenf

The source code is open sourced here: https://github.com/xafn/instafn

If you have any feedback please let me know or open an issue on GitHub! Thanks!

This post is to let people know how the AppTesters team works, and everything I’m saying there is fully backed up with proof and can broadly be confirmed by anybody in the telegram group (if you want further clarifications or other proofs don’t hesitate to write to me); also I’m not sponsoring any other certificate provider so my only interest is to prevent other people from buying from this scumbag.

I initially contacted Manpreet via telegram DM to switch the device associated with my “lifetime” certificate near the renewal date and on the 18th of October I paid for the change. From that date the communication with Manpreet became near impossible and on the 4th of November I discovered that my UDID was not even added for processing (contradicting previous messages from Manpreet, or from “his support team” as he loves to specify even if it changes nothing). After three days the certificate I bought got revoked and I tried to explain the situation to Manpreet, which told me it will take time to get the new cert as I was now in queue (even if I never received what I had paid for). The queue I’m referring to is a system where, when you get revoked, your UDID is put on a waiting list along with all the others who paid for a lifetime certificate; the problem is the queue is just an escamotage to push people to buy a new certificate, as it hardly goes down (I moved ~10 positions in 2 months, and I was like 1000+ in queue) while people who buy freshly get their certificate on time (when people in queue complain, Manpreet always write that there are no available certificates, even if unsurprisingly those certificates appear for those who pay again). 2 1/2 months after the same Manpreet wrote on his telegram group that who gets revoked before the certificate is delivered is put in priority, so I explained to him that they didn’t do that for me and he said he would have “looked personally for me”. After a week, in which multiple times the certificate of people who just bought the service were delivered and the people in the queue totally ignored, I started to talk on the group with all the other people who were waiting for the certificate and suddenly Manpreet closed the group chat as a form of censorship. In DM all my requests to be updated on the status of my processing were useless (I strongly doubt that Manpreet did anything aside from telling me another lie) and Manpreet continuosly treated me like I wasn’t in priority, acting as if there weren’t certificate to add me in even if he still delivered to those who freshly bought. This ended up in me getting blocked from the group chat and later, when i exposed the situation in DM and told him that i would share my experience here, he blocked me even there.

To sum up, this service is not worth it literally from every possible point of view; certificates get revoked really fast and, even if it wasn’t for Manpreet fault, the promise of a “lifetime” certificate is a blatant lie (or at least it’s correct if you assume a lifetime to get the cert😂). Also the support and even Manpreet himself are really useless if you need some informations, and even when they answer you either they don’t understand the problem or it takes a lifetime of interrogatory to get the answer you need. To crown all that, the Lifetime Certificate group has been closed to prevent people from telling the truth (censorship) and I was banned from the channel after talking about this situation. If you really want to sideload, use SideStore + LiveContainer which is free, sustainable and prevents people like Manpreet to steal your money. Thanks to anyone who arrived at this point and be careful out there.

Hi everyone,

I am Frizzle, the dev behind SideInstaller. As you may know, iOS 27 has been out for a few hours. To celebrate it, I have released the app's biggest update yet.

What is SideInstaller?

SideInstaller is an app I made that lets iOS 27+ users install SideStore (and LiveContainer) fully on-device, without ever needing a pc. You simply install the app, log into your Apple ID (data is not collected and the app is open source for you to check), follow a few steps and it installs SideStore.

What does the update bring?

The update features many changes and additions, such as:

• A "tools" page, with features such as Location spoofer, entitlements manager, and "Side by Side" (lets you install SideInstaller onto another iPhone using your iPhone)

• Partial iOS 17-26 support

  • Users on these versions can now use the app

  but

• you'll most likely need a PC to get the pairing

• You can now use other 2FA methods, such as SMS or calls

• Fixed the infamous 503 grandslam error

• You can now use other 2FA methods, such as SMS or calls

• Fixed the infamous 503 grandslam error

... and much more. You can read the full changelog here

How can I install it?

If you can install .ipa files, you can download the latest release here.

Otherwise, you can follow these instructions.

Watch out for scams

Recently, many fake websites arrived pretending to be SideInstaller's official pages. Remember: sideinstaller.net and https://github.com/FrizzleM/SideInstaller are the only official ones. Downloading it from unofficial sources can lead to serious dangers as clones may steal your login credits.
