A self-hosted web service for sideloading IPA apps onto Apple TV, built in Go and running via Docker on Linux/OpenWrt. It uses Impactor under the hood and automatically refreshes sideloaded apps to keep them working beyond the 7-day free provisioning limit.

Use cases

  • sideload ipa apps to apple tv
  • install third-party apps on appletv without jailbreak
  • automatically refresh sideloaded appletv apps before they expire
  • self-hosted altserver alternative for apple tv
  • manage multiple apple ids for app signing
  • sideload apps to appletv from a raspberry pi or openwrt router

When to choose

  • you want to sideload IPAs to an Apple TV from a Linux or OpenWrt device
  • you need automatic app refresh so sideloaded apps keep working
  • you prefer a Docker-based, web UI-driven sideloading service
  • you want to sign apps with multiple Apple ID accounts

When to avoid

  • you run macOS or Windows natively (not supported; use AltServer instead)
  • you need to sideload to iPhone or iPad rather than Apple TV
  • you cannot run Docker or avahi-daemon on your host
  • you are unwilling to create a dedicated Apple ID for signing
