How to Download iTransmission

iTransmission is not the type of app we can expect Apple to support. But you can still download it easily, using one of these two methods.

 

Method 1: AppValley App

AppValley app is a third-party app store, offering thousands of free apps and games, mostly modified and tweaked with new features. iTransmission is one of the most popular downloads from the app store:

  1. Using Safari browser on your device, download AppValley from the official page appvalleyapp.com
  2. Launch AppValley on your device
  3. Type iTransmission in the search bar and tap on the app when it loads
  4. Tap Install and enjoy an easy way to get your torrent files on your device.

 

Method 2: IPA File Download

With this method, you are only installing iTransmission, nothing else. It’s possible due to using Cydia Impactor to sideload it onto your iPhone or iPad.

You will need your computer, and you must use your Apple ID credentials. Be aware that Cydia Impactor is limited to sideloading just three apps, so make iTransmission one of them:

  1. Download Cydia Impactor to your computer
  2. Extract the file contents
  3. Download Cydia Impactor
  4. Connect your device to your computer and open Cydia Impactor
  5. When the program detects your device, click on Device>Install Package
  6. Click iTransmission (an alternative method is to drag the .ipa file into Cydia Impactor)
  7. Type in your Apple credentials and wait for Cydia Impactor to sign and sideload the app to your device.

While it’s easy enough to do, this method doe have a downside. You must reconnect your device to your computer and reactivate the installation every seven days. You do not need to delete iTransmission to do this; follow the installation steps again.

Cydia Impactor doesn’t require a jailbreak to work. If, however, you already have a jailbreak on your device, you can use a Cydia app called ReProvision. This does the same thing as Cydia Impactor.

 

Untrusted Developer Error

Whichever method you choose to use, there is one error you will almost certainly face when you try to use AppValley and iTransmission for the first time. The Untrusted Developer error is Apple’s way of stopping you using unofficial content, but there is an easy way around this:

  1. Open your iOS Settings app
  2. Go into General and tap on Profiles & Device Management
  3. Find the developer/app name in the profiles list and tap on it
  4. Tap the Trust/Verify button
  5. Close Settings.

Now you can use the app.
