    With the release of iOS & iPadOS 16, Apple has introduced a new "Developer Mode" option for users which you may have encountered by now if you've seen this popup.

    What is Developer Mode?
    "Developer Mode" basically means that you are by default prohibited from downloading Apps/IPAs outside the App Store. So sideloading & installing apps outside of Apple's walled garden is definitely a no-no from Apple.

    While sideloading does carry some risk, the potential harm is severely limited because iOS sandboxes each app, preventing it from affecting your entire device—especially if you’re running the latest iOS version.

    With that being said, this does not mean you should scour the internet to sideload/install every .IPA you can find. You should still stick to official IPA sources which are known to be trustworthy—such as iOSGods.com.

     

    How do I enable Developer Mode so I can install Third Party Apps?
    STEP 1: Open Settings on your iPhone or iPad.
    STEP 2: Tap on Privacy & Security option in Settings.

    STEP 3: Scroll down to the Developer Mode option and navigate into it.

    STEP 4: Tap the switch to enable Developer Mode. After you do so, Settings presents an alert to warn you that Developer Mode reduces the security of your device. To continue enabling Developer Mode, tap the alert’s Restart button.

    STEP 5: After the device restarts and you unlock it, the device shows an alert confirming that you want to enable Developer Mode. Tap Turn On, and enter your device passcode when prompted.

    How do I disable Developer Mode?
    If you want to disable Developer Mode, you do so directly on the device. Go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Developer Mode to show the Developer Mode toggle switch.

    Like enabling, disabling Developer Mode requires a device reboot before it becomes effective. After you disable Developer Mode, you can’t run apps from Xcode or Sideloadly on the device until you re-enable it, using the same switch in your device’s Settings.


     

    Please note that Developer Mode must be kept ON for your sideloaded apps to continue working. If you do not see the option, try sideloading an app via Sideloadly as that’s been known to help.

    Can you try installing or sideloading an app to see if the option appears?

        iOS Hack Download IPA Link:

        Hidden Content

        Download via the iOSGods App








        PC Installation Instructions:
        STEP 1: If necessary, uninstall the app if you have it installed on your iDevice. Some hacked IPAs will install as a duplicate app. Make sure to back it up so you don't lose your progress.
        STEP 2: Download the pre-hacked .IPA file from the link above to your computer. To download from the iOSGods App, see this tutorial topic.
        STEP 3: Download Sideloadly and install it on your PC.
        STEP 4: Open/Run Sideloadly on your computer, connect your iOS Device, and wait until your device name shows up.
        STEP 5: Once your iDevice appears, drag the modded .IPA file you downloaded and drop it inside the Sideloadly application.
        STEP 6: You will now have to enter your iTunes/Apple ID email login, press "Start" & then you will be asked to enter your password. Go ahead and enter the required information.
        STEP 7: Wait for Sideloadly to finish sideloading/installing the hacked IPA. If there are issues during installation, please read the note below.
        STEP 8: Once the installation is complete and you see the app on your Home Screen, you will need to go to Settings -> General -> Profiles/VPN & Device Management. Once there, tap on the email you entered from step 6, and then tap on 'Trust [email protected]'.
        STEP 9: Now go to your Home Screen and open the newly installed app and everything should work fine. You may need to follow further per app instructions inside the hack's popup in-game.

        NOTE: iOS/iPadOS 16 and later, you must enable Developer Mode. For free Apple Developer accounts, you will need to repeat this process every 7 days. Jailbroken iDevices can also use Sideloadly/Filza/IPA Installer to normally install the IPA with AppSync. If you have any questions or problems, read our Sideloadly FAQ section of the topic and if you don't find a solution, please post your issue down below and we'll do our best to help! If the hack does work for you, post your feedback below and help out other fellow members that are encountering issues.
