Overview
- iTorrent has been unavailable on AltStore PAL since July after the developer said Apple revoked his alternative distribution rights.
- AltStore PAL confirmed it asked Apple for details and was told the issue is under internal review with no guidance provided.
- The developer says Apple removed Alternative Distribution functionality at the developer‑account level without warning.
- Apple’s notarization requirement for non‑App‑Store apps enables the company to block or revoke distribution over security, fraud, or functionality concerns.
- Apple has offered no public explanation, and prior AltStore PAL cases such as the Mini vMac dispute show the company has used revocations before.
