How this thread works. The first post is the status and I edit it, with the date, within a day of a new iOS release, a new tool release or a reported break. Latest public iOS on 2026-11-11: iOS 27.2.1 (security update released 2026-11-09); iOS 27.3 is in public beta. Replies are for reports: post your device, iOS version, tool version and what happened. A reply that matches an existing problem gets added to the list with the date.

Current state
- Latest tagged release: 0.7.0-alpha, 2026-09-15. Release notes: fixes the 503 sign-in error caused by server-side changes at Apple.
- Nightly build 0.7.0-20261027 (built 2026-10-27, SDK 27.2). Nightlies are experimental; maintainers will not support nightly-only bugs.
- Free-account limits: 3 apps including SideStore, 10 App IDs per week.
- Project describes itself as a public beta with no release date.
Known problems
- 0.6.4 (2026-09-09): marked DO NOT USE, sign-in broken. Use 0.7.0-alpha or newer.
- 0.6.3: if you updated to iOS 26.4 or later and get VPN errors, reinstall with iloader.
- Login errors: most often a temporary Anisette server outage. Change the Anisette URL in settings.
- Former paid-membership accounts treated as 10-App-ID free accounts (issue #1156, closed 2026-07-16). Maintainers ask for a new issue on the latest nightly if it persists.
- Error -80045 at sign-in and "Minimuxer error 39 / profile install" refresh failures are all over r/SideStore (2026-11-09 to 11-11). Reported fixes, all from members and not confirmed by the maintainers: turn off On-Device Anisette and pick a different Anisette server in settings; create the pairing file with iDevice Pair (remote pairing) and send it to SideStore; keep LocalDevVPN on while signing in.
- A member says the SideStore bundled inside the LiveContainer+SideStore nightly is older than SideStore's own nightly and still throws -80045; they built an auto-updating bundle. We have not looked at that repository and do not recommend it; the official route is iloader with the build the project links. Other members say the stock bundle worked after changing the Anisette server.
- "The provisioning profile is banned" on free Apple IDs: see our thread on this error.
- Not yet confirmed by us on iOS 27.x: no source we read states SideStore's behaviour on iOS 27.
