Description
Hi,
I was following the guide here: https://altstore.io/faq/ but I can't get the AltStore installed on my iPod Touch 7th Generation which is running iOS 15.0.2. I keep getting the error:
server returned invalid response altstore
Here are some screen shots:


I made sure to download iCloud and iTunes from the Apple website and not from the Windows Store, I ran the Alt Store as Administrator and I created an App-Specific Password but that didn't work, it won't work with my Apple Password. Two-factor Authentication is enabled but I can't disable it.
My iPod is currently upgrading to iOS 15.01, is there a problem with iOS 15? do you know what is stopping the installation on my device?
Thanks!
