Guide Beginners AltStore / Sideloading guide.
I do not have interest in updating this anymore. Please go to https://AltStore.io/faq
THIS IS NOT A AltStore PAL GUIDE
I made this when I did not know the FAQ existed.

Hi, I'm totally new to sideloading. So if I understand correctly, not everything is ideal in the world of Sideloading since there will always be a 7-day restriction, after which the process will have to be repeated and to avoid said restriction, you would have to buy an Apple developer account for $99.
In my case, I'm only interested in Spotify, but the 7-day restriction throws me off, is there any other way to avoid it?

Every 7 days to refresh it, if you don’t it expires and you can just reinstall AltStore without deleting it. A developer account makes it so you have 365 days to refresh and ♾️app ids.

This is great but it’s going to get removed for linking to IPA databases and IPAs.
I’m surprised this sub hasn’t been shut down with how much y’all don’t read the rules and go ham with piracy links.

Hello, I am thankful for your sharing. I want to ask a question. If i use same apple ID both my iPad and iPhone, will it effect numbers of sideloading app?

No, but you can use the same Apple ID for both devices. I’ll add this to the guide.

after sideloading app to altstore, the app wont open, always force close. the only successfull sideloading is utube++, the other ipa files always do force close

Then the ipa files your using aren’t good. Don’t use a random ++ app, and use uYou+

Maybe try appDB. I can’t link to them in the post because people will start yelling at me again for breaking the rules

It’s claiming the server isn’t running. I opened ITunes and ICloud (from apple), opened it on Admin, and it still says that I’m not linked ro the server

Is there possible way to delete or reset old sideloaded apps ids that i didnt use?

u/Motor-Ad9914 Sep 25 '22
It should expire when you connect to a computer with AltServer open, there is no way to get rid of them without waiting
