There’s no single must-have feature in Apple’s latest iPhone OS update, but a lot of little improvements make it worth getting excited about.

For me there is one must have. I’d like to be able to sideload some apps without the weekly refresh. Can any beta testers say if this is a thing as they said may be?

Is Altstore working on Sonoma or iPadOS? I see it is in iOS 17, but I’d like not to be limited to one device.

I’m usually down to update right away, but my add free YouTube is pretty key to my sanity at the moment.

What’s altstore? I got an iPhone yesterday, first once since my iPhone X, kinda out the loop

It’s currently the best way to sideload content. You simply download the program to a computer which acts as a server that refreshes your apps. You have to refresh once a week. Sidestore is a fork that spoofs a macbook pro and allows you to completely untether from a server. You still have to refresh once a week.
