User:DesArch/Sideloading on Linux
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.
- 1. Install Legacy iOS Kit from GitHub. Choose a directory you like and follow the instructions.
- 2. Connect the desired iOS device with the PC by using your charging cable. Make sure the iOS device trusts the PC if prompted.
- 3. When prompted with "Press Enter/Return to continue", follow the instruction, then select "Sideload IPA".
- 4. Select "Select IPA", then select "Install IPA". When it prompts for an Apple ID followed by your Apple Password, enter it. If the ipa is cracked and compatible with the device, it should sideload properly.
Jailbreaking and further utilization afterwards
ios.cfw.guide has instructions for jailbreaks for a wide array of iOS versions. As many jailbreaks utilize a sideloaded app, this means that the sideloading method above will work for such jailbreaks.
