Re: Playing online in ios

Those are all workarounds for jailbreaking.

Trollstore exploits a vulnerability in the code signing mechanism of certain versions of iOS to trick your device into thinking an arbitrary app has been approved by Apple. This is why it only works on older iOS revisions and why updating your iOS device will prevent it from working.

Altstore and Sidestore both exploit features intended for iOS developers, allowing you to install arbitrary apps as if you were a developer testing them on the device. Both of these involve getting your iCloud account set to developer mode, and Apple could technically revoke developer features if they suspect you are not actually a developer, although I don't know how likely this is in practice. Sidestore recommends using a burner iCloud account just in case. If you are on iOS 16 or 17, you will also need to set your phone to developer mode.

Do all of these require jailbreaking my phone?
