Relax, this is a tutorial and if youre a seasoned torrentor than this should be fairly quick to learn even without the explanation but for anybody else this should be the simplest tutorial for you regardless as everything has been compressed here itself rather than sending you to multiple sources.
Before we begin:
Its essential that one thoroughly reads the tutorial first so they understand the concept and technical aspects itself to troubleshoot or avoid problems themselves instead of blindly following it like Linus Sebastian and face the consequences later with a shocked Pikachu face.
About: This is a readymade DNS Profile from Khindvn (GitHub) via the courtesy of a YouTuber named Pork the Jork and is meant to prevent Apple Servers from verifying the bundle ID of an app downloaded not through the AppStore thats going to be signed regardless before being installed as apps arent signed locally unlike a PC or Mac since iOS 13. This entire mechanism is called Bypass Revoke and if youre blacklisted then this should let you get back in the line as well.
Based on user feedback as seenabove, Khindvns original solution is kept over forked ones like Khomod.
For those coming from Android or Windows, having to manually install any profile is the default behaviour of iOS or iPadOS unlike macOS (at least the older versions before the enshittification) even if you were to just install DNS Profiles ranging from NextDNS, AdGuard to AhaDNS Blitz. If it were anything else, Apple would also state them in the bottom while asking your permission.
Due to a bug, the profile is downloaded as a file first in the downloads folder of your Files app. See that the name ends with .mobileconfig
by renaming it to khoindns.mobileconfig after which simply open that renamed file manually and revisit your Settings app after.

iOS 18 onwards also introduces a new change going forward where the device is rebooted every time any kind of profile (including a simple DNS) is loaded, use AirPlane mode to prevent DNS leaks and therefore blacklisting in advance of reboot more on that later.
ocsp.apple.com
ocsp2.apple.com
valid.apple.com
crl.apple.com
certs.apple.com
appattest.apple.com
vpp.itunes.apple.com
You can create a free CloudFlare Zero Trust account and manually block the above mentioned domains but the ReadMe text will allow you to also filter adware after creating your own .mobileconfig file. Otherwise, Egern is a native iOS app that will allow to set domain block rules locally if you know scripting. This is compatible with AdGuard Home users as well.
About: Esign is a signing app that can download, unzip, package, import, sign and install iPA files to become apps in addition to accessing public repos directly.
Download Settings for Esign
About: Cert is simply short for certificate where well use the expired ones instead of the latest one presumably HDFC Life Insurance (Indian) or older like Sunshine Insurance Group (Chinese) but youll be downloaded with all of them.
Signing Settings for Esign
About: Repo stands for repository which should allow to act like an App Library of sort, they might look like links but the URLs do not open to a website as theyre meant to be copy-pasted originally.
Shortcut tool to find the RAW URL of any GitHub File Link for repo source.
About: If youve been following attentively up to here then youd notice youre yet to install an app and thats because unlike the AppStore itself the search function only downloads the app as youd need to sign it first.
About: There are instances when youd like to have duplicate apps because you want to keep the original, have the flexibility of multiple messaging accounts or want to maintain two separate use cases. Usually, I use this Shortcut called Signed Installer but Esign can allow duplicating apps too.
There are a couple of things that you might want to remember which is just basic common sense:
Remember: The more you read, the less you troubleshoot.
-Avieshek
If you read till here, as a reward these are some additional repo which I personally use:
iTorrent Repo (Direct)
https://xitrix.github.io/iTorrent/AltStore.json
YTLitePlus Repo (Direct)
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Balackburn/YTLitePlusAltstore/main/apps.json
EeveeSpotify Repo (Direct)
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/whoeevee/EeveeSpotify/swift/repo.json
You dont need to add every repo on Earth unless they serve a particular niche category.
If youre still reading then youre actually done with sideloading and good to go.
About: VPN stands for Virtual Private Network and for this well use CloudFlare Warp.
Make sure you have visited the settings for CloudFlare Warp first to add a Gateway DoH Subdomain.
Go toAdvanced Connection Options DNS Settings:ciwelz9v7y
For other VPN services, make sure theyre based on WireGuard where you can either define the Gateway Endpoint (DoH) or custom blocklist rules as Bypass Revoke under settings.
Gateway DoH Endpoint:
https://ciwelz9v7y.cloudflare-gateway.com/dns-query
There can be countries like India in addition to Russia and China with the government increasingly limiting public access to VPN applications by removing its availability from the App Store. In that case, you dont really need an app and can simply build a WireGuard Profile yourself online where youd at least need to fill in the optional fields with your own. As shown above, you can directly enter the DoH (Gateway Endpoint) field that carries the same blocklist rules as Bypass Revoke (DNS Section) while the remaining blank fields are actually prefilled by your browser itself.
About: Dylibs stand short for Dynamic Libraries and this is what allows to run tweaks or fixes.
Injection Settings for Esign
Now, if you have the AppTester Repo loaded for example then you can directly search for a dylib or just filter them by category.
Sideloadbypass dylib
Sideloadbypass dylib for example would allow you to fix crashes for a decrypted iPA file after injection, say Egern as example. To inject, simply head back to Step 5 or hit More Settings before tapping Signature above when installing a new app. However, one thing to note is that ensure the iPA file isnt decrypted from TrollStore which would crash regardless as it can only be used with TrollStore.
Esign also allows to change your app icon, using this Shortcut makes it easy to grab any direct from the AppStore.
I have come across quite a chatter about Esign No Logs (5.0) which is a custom version of Esign iPA file that sans all of its telemetry. You can simply create a custom DNS filter list of these instead like for Bypass Revoke before: (Update: Its now native from the download site)

If youre facing problems then you can block esign.yyyue.xyz
safely by simply heading to Esign Settings Sign Default Config Install Address and change to Local

Hello, I was just curious if I need to do anything in case I have to restart my phone. Should I also put the phone on airplane mode if I decide to use only one of the filters like turning off the Adblock filter since it messes with the internet speed?

Reboot occurs when youre doing a software update as opposed to a restart. As for your other question, probably safe than sorry to use Airplane Mode when switching to one filter.

Hello, when sideloading Spotify and YouTube, tapping on the dynamic island or the song/video in the Lock Screen isnt taking me into the app. Installing the exact same ipa files with SideStore doesnt do this and the apps function normally. Is this a bug or some limitation with ESign?

Esign is just a signer aka install apps by signing them and not modify its properties.

I dont see Khomod being recommended anywhere here, please ensure that you read the guide youre participating in thoroughly first which is properly sourced with respective GitHub repo sources as well before sending in any unrelated queries. I have already explained (in detail) whether DNS filters needs to be active or not but if youre still lazy to read this laboriously authored tutorial then use ChatGPT to answer your confusion although the simple answer is yes.

As said above already, removing the filters means reestablishing the communication to verify the true status of the certs which is revoked and hence your device would be blacklisted.

Hey Avieshek,
Thank you for your tutorial and everything, I wouldve been completely lost without you but I have a problem; when I try to duplicate an app by changing the name and try to install, it says it has the same packet or something like that. I tried with TikTok, YouTube and Twitch where all 3 came with the same message.

Renaming the app name itself isnt enough but one has to edit their bundle ID as well (.1) as mentioned in the respective section.

Hi, Ive been using Esign for the past few months but now suddenly all the certs stopped working and it says: App cannot be installed because its integrity cannot be verified. Im not 100% sure if Im blacklisted because today in the morning the Sunshine 1 cert worked. But when i downloaded apps it said the internet connection is required to verify app error. I also resetted my device once but it didnt whitelist me. Idk if it has something to do with me keeping the khoindvn files backed up I want to keep one DNS for a long time and I never get blacklisted again.

Even if the certs are revoked, theyve a expiry period of ~2yrs like for the Sunshine Group. Simply, visit the website and grab a different one like Sunshine 2.

Thank you so much.
It works well when I follow your instructions step by step. But today I found all the apps signed by Esign cannot be opened, when I checked the system settings it showed that the apps arent verified. I am sure that my certificate hasnt expired, but it was blacklisted by Apple Since, Bypass Revoke is carried by DNS, why did it happen?
More importantly, is there any solution to my blacklisted status?
Thanks.

If the DNS active status carrying the Bypass Revoke is interrupted whether from a software update or 0% dead battery or from user intervention itself, then that momentary chance is enough to update from Apple Servers with actual revoked status of the cert if it itself hasnt expired. As for lifting oneself from blacklisting; restoring from a physical backup is the quickest method, a factory reset from iCloud is the slowest method or recovering from any type of backup should get you whitelisted.

Youre likely on some beta release of iOS 18 where it downloads as a file, in which case it obviously wouldnt show up on your Settings app first, find where is it (likely in the downloads folder of your Files app) and see that the name ends with .mobileconfig (if not then rename, ex: khoindns.mobileconfig) after which you simply need to tap to open.

Restoring your device from a Mac/PC backup can take ~20mins with the USB cable as opposed to Factory Reset with iCloud backup since youve to only account for the rebooting time mostly.

CloudFlare Warp is a Wireguard based VPN service thats already free to require a separate iPA file, download link is already mentioned or you can directly install from the AppStore.

If an imported iPA file needed extra entitlements to be signed for it to function, would Esign be able to help with that? I see the ability to select entitlements but unsure if thats correct or where to go from there, thanks.

I had NextDNS for Bypass Revoke but this thing is limited to 300k queries per month. So, when I reached the monthly limit, I got blacklisted after which I backed up my iPhone via iTunes (Windows PC) to restore successfully but why am I still blacklisted?

Using the same NextDNS that led you to blacklisting at first place is the issue for the repeat blacklisting, theres a readymade solution [linked](https://github.com/khoindvnDNS/iOS) in the guide which comes without any monthly limit i.e. based on CloudFlare for any one to use.

Theres a readymade DNS setup in the Guide to help you achieve bypass revoke and avoid blacklisting that comes from exhausting monthly query limit with NextDNS. Make sure you read the notes mentioned later in the guide where you disable automatic software updates or use Airplane Mode in iOS 18 and later.

Thats what blacklisting is as we are reusing already revoked certificates until their validity actually expires. Avoid carrying multiple mirror solutions or running VPN without the same filters and the like. Try to understand whats expanded on the Guide so you get the concept behind but for now youd have to restore, reset or recover your device to exit blacklisting.

Bypass Revoke is basically DNS filter with block list to have any kind of concern and the Guide expands on it further as well enabling users keen to do it themselves as per their own technical level. The validity of public certs are usually 1-2yrs which seems long in my dictionary even if they get revoked in a week or month, the basis of this method is to use the revoked certs until the very end of their validity like an European.

Try installing another app or a different version which seems to address in the past. Just in case an existing cache is the culprit, try cleaning everything and start fresh but this indeed is weird.

Not usually possible as the validity of a private cert is tied with the yearly renewal of your developer account. Even with third-party lifetime certificates (only in name like the term unlimited among US carriers), you will receive emails to fill the renewal form every year when the developer account is going to be renewed. Your certificate will stop working if you fail to fill the renewal form in a provided timeframe where youll need to buy again. You can toggle Supports Document Browser to access the contents of your sideloaded app in a folder of your Files app to clone later but you can pay for an Apple Developer account.

I noticed in a previous comment you used the terminology restart and reboot (which occurs when you have a software update) differently. I power off and power on my phone each night. I turned on airplane mode before restarting and turned it back off shortly after. As soon as I turned it off the apps were revoked. Is there a way around this?

> _I power off and power on my phone each night._
This isnt something I expected to find in this age but that practice may lead to the battery ballooning in elongated ownership. Airplane Mode was an original suggestion for iOS 18+ users as the entire system restarts whenever installing anything thats not from the AppStore or those wanting to switch between DNS & VPN carrying the same filters.
> _Is there a way around this?_
Locally backup to a computer (iTunes if on Windows) using the physical cable to restore your device with all data intact. This allows to restore your device without relying on iCloud so its quick (or you may use iCloud that may take much longer to restore from) and youre lifted from the blacklisted status for the revoked certificate after trying out others.

Yes, of course but it will have a monthly rate limit of 300K queries leading to blacklisting unless youre using something else like AdGuard Home or others.

Hey so I used a VPN & turned it off & tried going into esign & all apps affiliated with esign & all of them would crash. So naturally I deleted all apps & esign & I tried downloading the certificates & none of them would work but one. It finally worked but I couldnt open it as it crashed again. So I deleted it & tried it again & now all the certificates dont work. Is the only solution to factory reset my device?

Your VPN needs to carry the same filters as for Bypass Revoke otherwise youre only encrypting the network and not using any of the blocklist for filter, thereby exposing you to get blacklisted. As mentioned, in addition to reseting your device directly, one can restore their device from iTunes/Mac after making a local backup using the physical cable where you turn off auto-sync beforehand.

You need to read the whole guide, if you attempt to install any of the apps on revoked certificated without bypass revoke then one gets instantly blacklisted; this is also true if one were coming from other sideloading methods. Youll first need to get rid of blacklisting status in order to use the revoked certificates again where option 1 is to backup to a PC or Mac first and then restore option 2 is to backup on iCloud before factory reseting your device.

That means your device is blacklisted with the revoked certificate that showed this message. Make sure DNS is active and try another cert, otherwise will need to format/factory reset your device and restore from iTunes/Finder/iCloud as mentioned above.

I got signed apps working with the DNS option. But now when I try the Cloudflare method when I click on VPN it just switches back and forth rapidly like a freshly caught fish.
Am I supposed to change DNS back to automatic in iPhone settings first, in order for VPN to work?
Im afraid to change the DNS in case Apple blacklists me immediately after.

DNS shouldnt be changed to automatic but if youre using CloudFlare Warp instead of a Wireguard profile then perhaps there might be changes to the app or restrictions in your region like for India: [https://techcrunch.com/2025/01/02/cloudflares-vpn-app-among-half-dozen-pulled-from-indian-app-stores/](https://techcrunch.com/2025/01/02/cloudflares-vpn-app-among-half-dozen-pulled-from-indian-app-stores/)

The cert I used to install ESign from your list and imported to ESign to sign and install apps is the Vietnam one. Yet, I just noticed in the ESign app this cert is still good and not revoked until the 12th? Since I have the DNS installed will ESign and the apps signed with it still be good after it is revoked?

The cert will expire when the validity date nears, switch to another one before hand. If you had Document Browser toggled before hitting signature and installing the app, then you can simply copy or move the folder to the new one.

Hello bro,
Im just asking if I can use a different VPN as this 1.1.1.1 isnt working which switches between on and off very quickly and cant connect or it connects but when I check my IP it still is the same as the old one therefore unable to access websites banned on my old IP.
Thanks in advance.

If youre trying to sideload a VPN or from a country that has been banning the access to VPNs like India recently in addition to Russia and China then having the app itself isnt going to bypass deny of access, CloudFlare Warp doesnt actually mask your IP or reroutes your geo location but only encrypt your connection. You can use other VPNs which are wireguard based if it allows you to set your own blocklist mentioned in the first step under DNS section or build your own [WireGuard Profile](https://www.wireguardconfig.com/) skipping the need to install an app itself entirely for VPN access also already mentioned under Extras.

Thanks for last reply, I changed cert to revoked one and all was working good past couple days. However, just now my phone died and after powering back ON, all apps say (App name) No Longer Available when launching. Is this related to where you mention iOS 18+ and AirPlane mode to prevent DNS leaks and therefore blacklisting in advance of reboot more on that later.?
I did this when setting up but can DNS leak happen any time my phone restarts? Interested in your thoughts and possible assist on this please.

Please, continue from last reply in order to maintain one discussion thread. If cant verify app integrity kind of messages pop up, it means the device is now blacklisted on that particular cert. When your iPhone restarts, it doesnt reenable DNS filters until you unlock the device with passcode by which time it already connects to the internet for FindMy causing DNS leak which leads to blacklisting.
On iOS 18, the entire device restarts just to install a simple DNS profile likely to deter users from sideloading or jailbreaking in general as a new behaviour and thats why Airplane Mode is suggested in such cases like for switching between DNS and VPN as well. However, same cant be confirmed if your device is powering off itself due to low battery or whether it only works on WiFi and not Mobile Data as I was able to power on from a dead battery without blacklisting although it was immediately done where only WiFi was active, at the same time restarting the device manually didnt provide the same result but both WiFi and Cellular was active. This is something new and very unpredictable but my guess is newer iOS devices doesnt actually turn off completely and hence why this behaviour is not universal.

Thanks for the detailed response.
I agree it is a bit sporadic as my phone has died before and the DNS did not leak.
I will put my devise on a static IP on the home network so I can block it if it dies again without shutting down my whole network and try doing this along with removing the SIM card before booting up next time to see if I can avoid another leak.
Like you said though if the phone is dead for a prolonged period of time its possible it could leak when its in that dead state as it still has network access for Find My.
Curious what the result will be, I will reply back when it inevitably happens again.

Hello, about 2 weeks ago I followed the tutorial and its working like a charm. However, today when I opened any sideloaded app, it crashed. I went to check my certificate in settings, it showed a popup for verification which I googled it myself and found that I have possibly been blacklisted (although, I didnt touch my DNS or VPN nor my battery died once). I would like to know all of the posible reasons I got blacklisted, is there a way to unblacklist beside factory reset (Ive done it once but it very took ages to install, login everything again and I do not wish to do it again). My final question is that after I whitelist myself, is there any way to prevent this happening again?
Thanks.

Anything that can interrupt the Bypass Revoke filters as mentioned will lead to blacklisting like automatic software updates for example which causes a reboot. It wouldnt matter if your battery died or not as this is just one of the scenarios mentioned the device powers off or restarts which can be done manually as well. One would notice that biometrics doesnt work to unlock a device immediately after a restart and requires a passcode which means that things like DNS or VPN also doesnt get to be active until then as this is on an OS level implementation and not at kernel level but if your device still connects to the internet without it then theres a DNS leak resulting with blacklisting. However, this only impacts the certificate you were using at the time and you should be able to switch with a different one.
Basically, the reasons for blacklisting are DNS leak and Device Restart whether it comes from switching to disabling of DNS or dead battery to software update device restarts. If you do a restore instead of reset as mentioned under Final Notes then it takes maybe 30mins where only password manager, encrypted messenger or banking apps need a relogin although with all information stored this is something we prefer to do in order to test out certificates repeatedly.

I presume, youre using a custom solution because the readymade version has ChatGPT whitelisted in which case you need to allow the following domain URL: `register.appattest.apple.com`
ChatGPT requests started to pass through Apple servers since the integration with Apple Intelligence, just keep the allow list above the block list rules.

Did you actually read? Until you approve the certificate, you wont be able to sign other apps with the said certificate and is why youre still able to install Esign.

CloudFlare Security Filters (Adware, Badware, Malware etc) are active on the scene, you may try disabling Adware filters when all internet connections are ceased with Airplane mode or learn about DNS leaks under Final Notes before making the change.

VPN uses their own DNS connection which is why one has to either manually mirror the same Block/Deny List Rules in Bypass Revoke or change the Gateway DoH Endpoint as mentioned in the VPN section before using one.

Hey, great guide! Followed all the steps and it went past the verify integrity check smoothly. I just dont know if the next part is anywhere related to the given tutorial but I could really use some insight here: After I opened a sideloaded game from an external source, it says needing to connect my Apple account with a login popup. Wasnt the bypass supposed to block it or is it unrelated?

Entirely unrelated, you need to lookup the definition of sideloading here as am not sure whats the confusion about if the elaborate expansion in the guide above wasnt obvious enough to confuse the role of bypass revoke mechanism which is to sideloading only.

If youre talking about the red text during the live preview of the signing process on Esign then you should be already aware that we indeed are using revoked certificates at first place for sideloading to be free on iOS and hence the bypass revoke method if the name itself wasnt obvious enough from the beginning which shouldnt matter when you should be focusing at the end result. Just spend some time alone from reading to familiarising first instead of immediately jumping to seeking attention at each instance before finishing the task at hand where I only respond to queries that hasnt been raised before.

Thanks for the quick reply! That explanation for the red text makes sense, but I am still having the issue with some apps downloading fine but not opening which makes me wonder if its an issue with the apps themselves. Here are few Ive encountered:
Worked: Elevate, Wallpapers, FlipClock, Hill Climb, EeveeSpotify
Didnt: Widgetsmith, HiWidget, Fonts

When blacklisted, one wouldnt be able to do anything actually. The iPA files shared for sideloading are tweaked by a developer before availing them for user install since they need to be decrypted first from the AppStore. So, obviously this is some compatibility to optimisation issue from the app itself on your device.

You mightve followed through everything initially but it seems like you blacklisted yourself later by disrupting the DNS active status which can be from a range of things like playing with the DNS settings itself to using a VPN that has its own DNS rules or restarting the device whether from a software update or dead battery. Either try a different certificate or read the Final Notes section to whitelist oneself with the existing ones.

Not the DNS but remaining else since the sideloaded apps rely on a cert unlike Android, the apps associated get automatically removed when the cert itself is also removed. The removal of certs is to prevent blacklisting as the implementation of DNS rules is only at the OS level and not kernel level to still remain active during reboot especially when youre rewriting the software with an update actively. There is although technically a very advanced if not a complex way without jailbreaking to answer your question and that involves being adept to manually write your own Egern Script which is equivalent to editing your firewall rules on a desktop PC or Mac. Otherwise, you can toggle Document Browser before signing apps to save their internal folder separately and move them later.

Amazing tutorial, [@avieshek](https://avieshek.wordpress.com/mentions/avieshek/) Thanks for putting it together. Two quick questions:
1\. If I understand correct then restarting my device with Airplane Mode will mitigate the risk of blacklisting but in case it gets blacklisted, what are the steps to resign the apps with another certificate?
2\. Is there any privacy concern? I am using a company phone so I want to be on the safe side.
Thank you very much.

Appreciate the words of encouragement, answering your two queries:
1\. While Airplane Mode helps against DNS leaks during DNS switching, its also not a full proof solution to the weird unpredictability of iOS itself where your device can still get blacklisted if you manually shutdown or update your device. However, one doesnt actually need to do anything if theres another certificate at your disposal but links are mentioned in the Final Notes section to either Reset or Restore after making a backup which is to whitelist an existing cert. Youll need to remove any installed certs before restoring from a backup as youre trying to whitelist the cert than your device actualy.
2\. This basically just blocks certain domain and is a simple DNS filter unlike VPN or TOR with adblockers as an added perk. You can opt for the backup link in Step 1 which sans the adblockers for Bypass Revoke filters only in case there are issues on enterprise network.

Take a deep breath and read whats already written and provided, backup and restore is your only option for whitelisting the links to which is already explained under Final Notes but CloudFlare Warp is a VPN solution.
VPN is not needed for achieving sideloading itself but it is the only free solution while being compatible for the said purposes to avoid blacklisting. Indian Government has only banned the availability of the mobile app on the respective App Stores so CloudFlare services are still up and building a WireGuard Profile is possible when provided with a **Gateway DoH Endpoint** which you can find above.
