  iOS 17.0 TrollStore INSTALL METHOD Finally Achieved!

17.0 is a year old lmao

> 17.0 is a year old

It's the current iOS major version and apps will support this version for years to come.

Those who saved blobs with https://github.com/airsquared/blobsaver can freely switch between new and old iOS versions, e.g. if they have a use case which needs https://trollstore.org/:

  TrollStore is a tool that allows non-jailbroken iOS users to install and run IPA files without App Store verification. It works on iOS 15.5-16.6.1 and iOS 17.0, and supports automatic app refreshing and resigning.

So? You can buy an AppDB pro subscription or something similar for $20 a year to do the same thing on newer iOS versions with way less effort. Yes trollstore can do some other things but either way Apple did definitely not intentionally add the core trust but Trollstore uses and it’s more or less irrelevant now tbh

> buy an AppDB pro subscription

Seems legit, https://appdb.to/info/empire-strikes-back
