AltServer 1.5b9: macOS 12.1 Quick Fix
Added 2021-12-16 21:25:49 +0000 UTCAnother short and sweet update for y'all today!
Yesterday I released AltServer 1.4.8 for macOS which fixed the Mail plug-in not loading on Monterey 12.1 or later. However this was just the public version, so I'm happy to now say AltServer 1.5b9 with support for macOS 12.1 is also now available!
Besides adding support for macOS 12.1, this beta also includes one minor UI change: the "Sideload .ipa" menu option is now hidden by default (as seen in the above screenshot). To make the option appear, you now need to hold the "Option" key, which will turn "Install AltStore" into "Sideload .ipa". This behavior now matches AltServer Windows (which requires you to hold down "Shift"), and is intended to make it clear that installing AltStore is the preferred method for sideloading, and that direct .ipa sideloading should really only be used as a fallback when AltStore can't be used (such as sideloading to Apple TV).
As for Windows users, because these changes are all macOS specific there is no equivalent 1.5b9 beta for Windows — so you can keep using AltServer 1.5b8 without any issues.

On an unrelated note, you also might have seen that Apple released Swift Playgrounds 4 yesterday, which allows you to build complete iOS apps with just an iPad. I've been playing around with it for the past 24 hours and have discovered some pretty interesting things you can do with it…so stay tuned 😉

Yeah I just need it once or twice a month. Can you please share a guide with me? The steps written on Kodi Wiki aren't working for me.

2022-02-09 05:54:04 +0000 UTCYes, but without AltStore you need to sign / upload the app manually every 7 days

2021-12-18 23:46:35 +0000 UTCI have been unable to use AltStore since the macOS 12.0 beta. And still now on macOS 12.1 https://imgur.com/a/FWcfXnT I’m using Sideloady+Paid Dev Acc in the meantime and I’d rather use ALTSTORE+Paid Dev Acc due the on-device GUI and Wireless side-loading. Is it possible to remove all traces of AltStore (caches, system changes, hidden files, et cetera) from my system in order to do a fresh install? I already use AppCleaner but that doesn’t seem to do much in this case. I suspect that there’s some hidden files causing this issue because this problem persists even after switching MacBooks. I restored my M1 MacBook Pro from a Intel MacBook Pro’s Time Machine Backup and the issue persisted.
2021-12-18 01:02:43 +0000 UTCSomeone else still has the plugin incompatible issues with the mail plugin? I am starting to wonder if this is because I have the wrong settings on my Macbook, would be really appreciated if anyone can help me out. Thanks
