The Federal Regional Court of the 1st Region (TRF-1) has overturned a trial ruling and reinstated an injunction imposed by the Administrative Council for Economic Defense (Cade) on Apple, as part of an investigation into alleged abuse of dominant position in the app distribution market for iOS devices. According to the ruling, the company will have 90 days to implement the changes mandated by the antitrust authority.

    Technically, sideloading is possible already, but you need a developer account, you’re limited to 3 sideloaded apps at a time, and you have to renew them every week.

    So the more difficult way already exists.

      There are ways without the dev account (faked certificate), but if you use a VPN, or update your Os, apple will blacklist your device. And you also need to have some very specific DNS settings blocking a bunch of apple domains. @[email protected] is an expert.

          Here’s a link to the Guide: https://is.gd/sideloading

          I focus on free methods hence a bunch of things one needs to read through first like revokes in order to avoid them. Even if you go with the paid route, there are services that allow you to gain a certificate for much less as they distribute the price of one developer account to multiple users which is in the form of a private cert. The tutorial is supposed to guide you through the usage of enterprise certificates instead as it allows to sideload for free.
