A Guide to Setting up Sidestore + LiveContainer

Works on the latest iOS versions, including iOS 26 db8.

Hello r/sideloaded!

After the mass revocation wave I decided to make this guide to help people sideload apps using an alternative method. A method that is 100% revoke free, costs nothing, and requires a computer only one time (for initial setup)!

After following this guide you will not need to worry about the 3 app limit OR refreshing every 7 days. You will be able to install as many apps as you want and they should not ever expire. This is a completely free method.

Here is what we will go over in this guide:

Build a NixOS config, copy it to a tmpfs, and enter it, shutting the running userspace (but not the kernel) down. This can be useful e.g. for repartitioning the system or switching it to a new zfs pool, without the need for extra installation media, and is a little faster than most other volatile system methods (e.g. kexec, classic USB or CD installer), since the store is in RAM and uncompressed right from the get-go. It also copies the SSH host keys from the building system to maintain the chain of trust in a remote system.
