Sideloadly is a powerful tool that enables users to install applications from outside the official App Store onto iOS devices. It allows you to “sideload” apps and games directly onto your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch without the need for jailbreaking.
Key Features of Sideloadly:
- Easy installation of IPA files using either a free or paid Apple ID.
- Saves your Apple ID information for convenient future installations.
- Supports drag-and-drop functionality for IPA files.
- Allows modification of the minimum iOS version requirement set by the IPA developer (enabling installation on lower iOS versions).
- Removes device restrictions set by IPAs (e.g., allowing installation on older iPhone models).
- Enables customization of the app name displayed on the home screen.
- Allows changing the IPA’s bundle ID (enabling creation of parallel app instances).
- Supports Wi-Fi installation – sideload apps without a USB connection when your device and computer are on the same Wi-Fi network.
- Enables embedding tweaks into IPAs, allowing use of app-specific tweaks like uYou or TikTok Pro on non-jailbroken devices.
- Offers additional features and promises future enhancements in upcoming versions.
