Welp guess I won’t be able to actually test Delta on the Duo before it launches 😪

Thanks to our intern Zoe, I changed my iPhone’s lock sound to be Mario saying “BYE BYE!” and it’s music to my ears every time I lock my device 😌 RE: www.threads.com/@altstoreio/post/Dd…

As for actually playing games, yeaaahhh gonna need to update basically _all_ the skins to not be over the crease 😅 Which also means I need to figure out how to update Delta’s skin format to support that, since it currently assumes a constant 19.5:9 aspect ratio […] [Original post on threads.com]

Finally have a chance to play with Duo simulator — pretty happy with how Delta’s game library adapts to different poses! Wondering if the custom page control would make more sense as a vertical bar though 🤔 #Delta Duo

With iOS 27, users in the EU, Japan, and Brazil can now sideload apps (.ipa files) entirely on-device without ever using a computer!! Just install AltStore Classic with AltStore PAL, then follow our onboarding guide to easily get set up with Remote AltServers 👌 […] [Original post on threads.com]

With this week’s @delta_emulator beta, you can now customize the game screen position when a controller is connected 🙌 Perfect for controllers like 8BitDo’s FlipPad! RE: www.threads.com/@verge/post/Da0V0Xa…

After 20 years of playing Pokemon, my biggest fear finally came true: running into a shiny in the Safari Zone (Yes I screamed) #pokemon threads

Thankfully the Pokégods were on my side — 5 (FIVE!!) Safari Balls later and she’s officially mine 🥰 #pokemon threads

Took a lot of effort to make it all work seamlessly, but it’s pretty cool seeing likes appear natively in AltStore from both Mastodon and Bluesky 😊 #AltStore

This is truly the stupidest feature, all I want is my For You feed to be primarily from people I follow and that’s explicitly banned. Who the hell decided that? Stuff like this is why I’m on Threads less and less…it’s clear the team is willing to do more and […] [Original post on threads.com]

Fun fact, Apple tracks all downloads of apps in AltStore PAL (ostensibly to charge CTF) Would be pretty funny if Apple watched this become one of our top apps… RE: www.threads.com/@altstoreio/post/DU…

Screenshot from our new app “CSAM Store Checker” with text:

“Is child sexual abuse material accessible via apps in this marketplace?

App Store

Yes, in the X and Grok apps.”

TIL iOS has hidden support for custom animated wallpapers and this is probably the coolest thing I’ve done to my iPhone in years

IMO if Apple’s worst, most egregious example of a harmful and dangerous app that’s now available through sideloading is *checks notes* porn…I think we’re doing OK www.apple.com/newsroom/2025/09/the-…

Excerpt from Apple newsroom post about DMA:

• New exposure to harmful apps: For the
first time, pornography apps are available
on iPhone from other marketplaces —
apps we've never allowed on the App
Store because of the risks they create,
especially for children. That includes Hot
Tub, a pornography app that was
announced by AltStore earlier this year.
The DMA has also brought gambling apps
to iPhone in regions where they are
prohibited by law.
