Installous replaced ALREADY
« on: December 31, 2012, 06:52:38 pm »
As we all know, installous has been shut down. This was only a momentary victory, however. There is already a replacement called IPASTORE on the hackyouriphone repo...



I do not condone piracy in any form, just spreading the bad news

Hmmmmm. Looks like the guys at installous made a quick transition.
Thanks for sharing Alex.

Yup. I've seen some other IPA installers before, and I suppose many of them will try to become the 'new Installous'. Thanks for the share.

That page you posted looks awful installousy (is that a word?). I mean it looks a lot like the installous main screen did. Different words but similar color scheme and such. I wonder if someone just revamped it and started a little different flavor. Rather than vanilla chocolate chip it's vanilla.

I tweeted this point to 8bit the other day, but it's valid. For all the cons related to the Installous repo concerning obvious piracy - there was at least a pro. Many countries are limited to what apps are available to them. So installous made apps that were unavailable to countries (SA for one) available to those who had no way to obtain them. Also, installous provided a backup of some apps once Apple removed them due to some discrepancy. I am not fighting for the repo but feel these are points worth consideration.
I do not support piracy. I am merely mentioning factors relative to a discussion.

I can agree with that, LankAsif. Nice of you to offer a different point of view.

Yeah I do agree with lank. I had an IPA for an app that got pulled, and I could only get it from installous.

Thanks for giving another perspective on it Lank. I can see how it would be worthwhile for some to have it. For me it was because of iDOS. I would load it now and then for the nostalgia. :-)

I'm not going to say anything on the forum, but anybody that wants to brainstorm on ways to "take care" of new services like this, please come to the hack room in the IRC.
