Scarlet / ESign: On-device installers that use enterprise certificates. These are often revoked by Apple, causing the app to crash. The Risks: Is It Worth It?
Modified IPAs can sometimes function, but their reliability is often short-lived:
- Revoked certificates – Sideloaded IPAs without a developer account expire in 7 days (or get blacklisted).
- Privacy risk – Modified apps can steal your Apple ID credentials or track your usage.
- No iCloud sync – Even if the app opens, your playlists and downloads won't sync.
Installing an IPA from an untrusted source is dangerous. Since these apps are modified, they can include scripts that log your keystrokes or steal your Apple ID and password. 2. Account Bans
