A New Way to Sideload

AltStore is an app store designed for
sideloading. Every app in AltStore
gets a beautifully generated store
page with detailed information to
make sideloading fun and easy.
Browse apps from trusted
developers, or add additional
"sources" to further increase your
options.

Plus, AltStore is made with security in

mind. You can view a full list of an
app's permissions from its store
page, and AltStore will even
automatically alert you if they
change* so you can sideload with
confidence.
*Permission checking coming later this year with AltStore 2.0

Self-Published Apps
Anyone can distribute their apps
with AltStore. All you need is to make
a “source”, which you can do by
hosting a text file with basic
information about your apps. Users
can then enter your source URL in
AltStore and your apps will
automatically appear*

Follow our complete guide to create

your own source and start
distributing your apps in minutes!
*Custom sources coming later this year with AltStore 2.0

“[AltStore] is clever, has been verified by

other developers, and the service has an
active community of thousands of users who
side-load apps on their devices. For the past
few weeks, I’ve been one of them.”
