What is AltStore?
AltStore is an alternative app store for non-jailbroken iOS devices. AltStore PAL is the new version of AltStore, Apple-approved and exclusive to the EU. You can download it if you're a user from that region.
AltStore is an iOS application that allows you to sideload other apps (.ipa files) onto your iOS device with just your Apple ID. AltStore resigns apps with your personal development certificate and sends them to a desktop app, AltServer, which installs the resigned apps back to your device using iTunes WiFi sync. To prevent apps from expiring, AltStore will also periodically refresh your apps in the background when on the same WiFi as AltServer.
FEATURES
- Resigns and installs any app with your Apple ID
- Installs apps over WiFi using AltServer
- Refreshes apps periodically in the background to prevent them from expiring (when on same WiFi as AltServer)
- Handles app updates directly through AltStore

Very easy to use and the best at the moment.
Usually works fine, but sometimes the connection to the server is unstable and refuses to connect, which is frankly very irritating Having to set up a server on the local network is a big disadvantage. You need a computer to do this, and you need to be on the same local network as the server, which makes it a horror when you're on the move, given the short lifespan of applications (7 days) I much prefer SideStore, which lets you install and refresh apps without the need for a computer, using just the device on which it's installed and a trick with a WireGuard VPN profile (which is actually a loop, no data leaves the device)
I like because it’s good
