How to Install SideStore with AltStore
- Install AltStore on your iOS device. To learn how, read this guide.
- Download the latest SideStore IPA file.
- Open the AltStore app on your device and go to the "My Apps" tab.
- Tap on the plus "+" icon in the top, then browse and select the SideStore .ipa file that you downloaded.
- If it's your first time using AltStore, you will be asked to enter your Apple ID and password. AltStore requires it for signing the app so it can be installed. We recommend you use a burner account.
- The app will begin to install and once completed, you can open it from the My Apps tab or from your Home screen.
With this method, you have to re-sign the app every 7 days. To do so, simply go to the My Apps tab in AltStore, then tap the "X days" button next to the app to begin the re-sign process. Make sure to re-sign the app before it expires, otherwise, you have to repeat the above process all over again.

Description
SideStore is an iOS signing app that makes it super simple to sideload iOS apps on your device without using a computer.
It is a fork of the popular AltStore app, and improves upon it by allowing users to sign apps directly from their device without requiring AltServer and a PC. It also implements community-requested features of AltStore.
SideStore works by sideloading and installing IPA files on your device using your Apple ID.
Typically, apps last for seven days before they have to be manually resigned by the user, but SideStore bypasses this by using a VPN trick to resign your apps in the background automatically.
When installing SideStore for the first time on your device, a computer is necessary to complete the installation. You can install it using either AltStore or Sideloadly.
This is only required once for the installation of SideStore. After installing it, you won't need to use a computer anymore because it automatically resigns your apps directly from the device.
