Still wondering if anyone can help 🙇♂️🙇♂️
Wondering if anyone (in EU or JP) using AltStore PAL can test/screenshot if @hackerweb is listed and works?
I've revived this old app, tried out the steps to distribute it on AltStore PAL (https://faq.altstore.io/developers/distribute-with-altstore-pal) but I have no way to test or even see it. There's no dashboard for me to track what happen or get any notifications of something's happening 😂
@cheeaun i had to add the source (manually, by copying the URL), after that it installed fine and works as I assume is intended
@cheeaun I haven't set up AltStore Pal yet on an iPhone here (in Germany) as the one I have is too old but I think my partners iPhone is new enough to try it so maybe I can
@liaizon thanks.
Tho' at this point, I'm quite curious if anyone's using or aware of AltStore PAL. Wondering if there are UX issues (users don't know how to use it, lack onboarding or marketing) or the usual chicken and egg problem (users don't use it because not enough apps, devs don't add their apps because not enough users) 🤷♂️
@cheeaun well apple played a major blow to it by allowing the main app it was made to support into the normal apple run app store, I would say that's the main way people were finding out about AltStore before. I don't think many people know about it or even that it's something they should look into. But I hope that slowly changes as more apps are available only thru it.
