What is TweakDoor?
TweakDoor is the latest in a long line of third-party app installers. At first, these installers were brought out to provide an alternative to Cydia for those jailbreakers who could no longer use it. Now, they have become excellent alternatives to the official iOS app store; the fact that TweakDoor doesn’t require a jailbreak means anyone can use it. Packed with modified apps and games, along with thousands of other free apps and games, TweakDoor offers one of the most comprehensive alternatives available today.
TweakDoor Features
TweakDoor users get access to some cool features:
Completely free to download and use
- User-friendly app
- Thousands of apps and games, including loads of unofficial ones
- Doesn’t take up much space or use much memory on your device
- No need to jailbreak
- Regular updates – new content, bug fixes, enhancements and more
- Your Apple ID is not required for installation
- The configuration profile uses the same privacy standards as all official Apple apps
There is a downside to the app, though – because it is unofficial and can’t be downloaded from the official store, Apple will revoke the app certificate every few days, causing the app to crash – installing a decent VPN will help prevent this happening.
Those used to jailbreaking should not expect TweakDoor to offer the same experience as they got with Cydia, either. Many of the tweaks in the jailbreak store required root access to work – TweakDoor does not, and that means many of the Cydia tweaks will not work.

Frequently Asked Questions
These are the commonly asked TweakDoor questions and the answers:
Is TweakDoor Safe to Use? Legal?
Yes, TweakDoor is safe to use, and it is legal. First, with no need to jailbreak, you do not need root access to your device and don’t hack Appl’s security. Second, the app is monitored frequently for problems; no app is allowed into the store without being run through a virus scan first – if it doesn’t pass, it doesn’t go in. And, because the app runs on the same standards as any official app, it is legal to use.
Is it A Cydia Alternative?
Yes, but not a replacement. Not all Cydia tweaks work without root access, so you won't find those in TweakDoor. There are thousands of unofficial apps and games, though.
What Devices Does TweakDoor support?
All iOS devices are supported, from iOS 10 up to iOS 13.
