I made SideInstaller: an no-pc Sidestore installer (iOS 27)

SideStore and LiveContainer are currently the best way to sideload on iOS. However, there's one big problem: installing them requires a PC, which many people don't have. That's why I made SideInstaller, a free and open-source iOS app that installs them directly on your iPhone, no PC required.

SideInstaller handles the entire setup process on-device. It takes care of the pairing, provisioning, and installation steps that normally force you to plug into a computer and run desktop tools, all from a single app running on the phone itself. Once it's done, you get a fully working SideStore and LiveContainer setup ready to sideload your own apps.

The whole thing is built to be simple. There's no complicated configuration, no command line, and no need to understand how any of the underlying machinery works. You just open the app, follow a few steps, and let it do the rest. For anyone who's ever wanted to sideload but didn't own a Mac or PC, this removes the biggest barrier to getting started.

And because it's open source, you don't have to take my word for any of it. The full code is available for anyone to read, audit, or contribute to, so you can see exactly what's running on your device.

Requirements:

  • A Wi-Fi router or a hotspot connection
  • An iPhone/iPad on iOS 27

How to use it

  1. Install LocalDevVPN and connect to the VPN
  2. Open this page and try installing it using any of the certificates
  3. Once you installed it, open it
  4. Log in with your Apple account credentials
  5. Click "Install Sidestore" or "Install Sidestore + Livecontainer"
  6. Sidestore or SS + Livecontainer will install, depending on which one you chose

That's it, no pc or extra steps required.

Is SideInstaller Safe?

SideInstaller is built with safety and privacy in mind. The app is fully local and open source, which means anyone can inspect exactly what it does. Your Apple credentials also never leave your device, they're used locally, only to sign and install your apps, and are never transmitted, logged, or collected in any way. There's no server collecting your data, no analytics tracking what you do, and no account to sign up for. Everything happens on your iPhone and you can verify every line of it yourself in the source code.

EDIT 29/6/26

Thank you guys for the support! First, if you have questions, please join the discord. Now, I am aware that most users get the failed to verify integrity error, and what that means is that you most likely already sideloaded on that device before and it got blacklisted in the past. There's no way for me to get around this, but I will try and add more certificates to the website so you have higher chances of installing it without the error. Second, if you could help me on the ko-fi that would help as with enough funds I could publish the app on Altstore PAL (EU users) and try and publish it on the App Store as a disguise. Finally, many users are asking if I could add a way to add the support for StikDebug. The answer is absolutely, the update I'm working on will let users extract their pairing files and put them in apps such as Stikdebug, Feather, and so on.

HELP SIDESTORE CAN’T DETERMINE UDID!

Been using sidestore for almost a year now and everything worked just fine, suddenly two days ago when i wanted to refresh my apps, it did not refresh! Now app id time has ran out and i uninstalled the sidestore and livecontainer and reinstalled using iloader but now i can not login to my account! Everytime i click sign in i get an error sayin cannot determine devices UDID!
So i tried these steps: replacing pairing file, turning developer mode off and then back on, install sidestore and livecontainer separately using iloader, placing pairing file, changing anisette server and non of these steps worked and im still stuck.
If anyone can help i would gratefully accept it.

Can’t update Apollo Reloaded through SideStore

Hello! I’m having an issue with SideStore. The new Apollo Reloaded update was released, and SideStore says there’s a new update available from the source. However, the update icon never appears on the Apollo app, so I don’t have any option to actually update it.

How can I fix this? Is there another way to update Apollo through SideStore when the update option isn’t showing?

New App Approved and Live, But Not Appearing in App Store Search

My app was recently approved and is currently available on the App Store.

If I use the direct App Store link provided by Apple, the app page opens normally and can be downloaded without any issues.

However, when I search for the app in the App Store:

- The app name appears in the search suggestions/autocomplete.
- After tapping the suggestion, no results are shown.
- Searching the exact app name also doesn't return the app.

I'm wondering if this is normal for newly released apps and how long App Store indexing usually takes.

Has anyone experienced this before?

Thanks!
