SideStore
SideStore is an untethered, community driven alternative app store for non-jailbroken iOS devices
SideStore is an iOS application that allows you to sideload apps onto your iOS device with just your Apple ID. SideStore resigns apps with your personal development certificate, and then uses a specially designed VPN in order to trick iOS into installing them. SideStore will periodically "refresh" your apps in the background, to keep their normal 7-day development period from expiring.
SideStore's goal is to provide an untethered sideloading experience. It's a community driven fork of AltStore, and has already implemented some of the community's most-requested features.
(Contributions are welcome! 🙂)
Requirements
- Xcode 14
- iOS 14+
- Rustup (
brew install rustup)
Why iOS 14? Targeting such a recent version of iOS allows us to accelerate development, especially since not many developers have older devices to test on. This is corrobated by the fact that SwiftUI support is much better, allowing us to transistion to a more modern UI codebase.
Project Overview
SideStore
SideStore is a just regular, sandboxed iOS application. The AltStore app target contains the vast majority of SideStore's functionality, including all the logic for downloading and updating apps through SideStore. SideStore makes heavy use of standard iOS frameworks and technologies most iOS developers are familiar with.
EM Proxy
SideServer mobile powers the defining feature of SideStore: untethered app installation. By levaraging an App Store app with additional entitlements (WireGuard) to create the VPN tunnel for us, it allows SideStore to take advantage of Jitterbug's loopback method without requiring a paid developer account.
Minimuxer
Minimuxer is a lockdown muxer that can run inside iOS’s sandbox. It replicates Apple’s usbmuxd protocol on MacOS to “discover” devices to interface with wireguard On-Device.
Roxas
Roxas is Riley Testut's internal framework from AltStore used across many of their iOS projects, developed to simplify a variety of common tasks used in iOS development.
We're hoping to eventually eliminate our dependency on it, as it increases the amount of unnecessary Objective-C in the project.
