iPhone gets its first third-party app store in the EU — here’s what you’re missing


The EU’s Digital Markets Act (DMA) helped out all iPhone users with a universal USB-C port, but some features — like third-party app stores — are still restricted to EU-only iPhone users. The first official third-party app store, called AltStore PAL, just went live in Europe, and we’re a little jealous (via The Verge).

Created by Riley Testut and Shane Gill, AltStore PAL can be installed directly from the Altstore website on EU iPhones running iOS 17.4 or later. During installation, The Verge reports having to click through a bunch of “scare sheets that double and triple check” that you are sure you want to install apps outside of Apple’s official App Store, but other than that nuisance, the installation process is simple.
