Description

I am using iOS 15.7.8 in my iPad Air 2. I only want to use AltStore for UTM. Except it only showed up the App ID and not the app itself. I think it's because my iOS version is not upgraded.

Here is an example:

IMG_1135
As you can see here, the App ID is here.

IMG_1136
But here, the app doesn't show up.

What is the problem? I enabled WiFi syncing in iTunes, i installed AltServer correctly, and i also installed while connected to the laptop & the laptop having AltServer open, but there isn't a way to make the app show up!
