Sideloading iOS apps on Linux means that conventional sideloading tools, such as ''Sideloadly'', do not work. There are alternatives that are still potent at installing apps, but as a rule of thumb, if you see an option that you do not understand, it is best avoided.

''[https://cydia.saurik.com/ Cydia]'' is an App Store alternative for Jailbroken devices that features apps not allowed on the App Store. Installing Karen/あけみ's ''[https://github.com/akemin-dayo/AppSync AppSync Unified]'' from Cydia enables installing IPA files already on the device without requiring resigning. Next, either install ''iFile'' or ''FilzaEscaped'' from ''Cydia'', whichever one is supported for the device's OS. Both apps are file managers that provide access for browsing a variety of files, including app save files.

Once ''AppSync'' is installed, IPA files can also be directly installed through ''Legacy iOS Kit'', by running it again, selecting App Management, selecting Install App (AppSync), then following step 4 of the installation section as usual.
