mineek was releasing in the past some groundbreaking tools for the jailbreak community. Today he surprised me with a new release – MuffinStore. This app is dedicated to TrollStore devices and its purpose is to download apps from Apple servers including those that are no longer available for download. This allows you to downgrade apps.


Download MuffinStore IPA

MuffinStore was released as an IPA package that can be installed on supported devices with TrollStore. It is compatible with all iOS versions supported by opa334's TrollStore (i.e. iOS 14.0 - 17.0). You can't sideload MuffinStore IPA with other IPA installers. Download links to the latest version are available below.


What is MuffinStore?

MuffinStore is an app that lets you download any version of an app from the App Store. You can grab the latest version or go back and install older releases. To get older versions, you can either enter the version ID manually or pull them from an API. MuffinStore is an app for TrollStore that lets you downgrade apps from the App Store.

Some might see using the API as a privacy concern since it requires sending the app's ID along with the request. If you'd rather avoid using an external API, apart from the App Store, you can simply enter the app version ID manually. You can find these IDs through tools like ipatool-py and many other sources.

Mineek has never been known for his design skills, and this time, MuffinStore is a no-frills app with a pure graphical interface. Its main advantage is that it works and allows you to downgrade any app from the App Store as you wish. To my surprise, this tool was not released as open source, but with the 1.1 release it is.

There are several good reasons why someone might want to downgrade apps on iOS. In many cases, newer versions of apps can be problematic, especially on older devices, leading to slower performance, crashes, or increased battery drain. Sometimes, app updates remove features users loved or introduce bugs that weren’t there before.

I’ve also found that design changes in newer versions can be frustrating, making the older interface more appealing. Additionally, for those who use third-party tweaks or jailbreaks, downgrading might be necessary if the latest version no longer supports these customizations.

MuffinStore isn’t the only app that lets you download or downgrade App Store apps. You can also try DowngradeApp for TrollStore, which is Netskao's latest iOS application. It offers a user-friendly way to manage installed apps on your iOS devices. Additionally, the popular AppStore++ tweak has a TrollStore version. This release lets you view all installed apps on and easily upgrade or downgrade any app to the version you want.

If you prefer a command line tool, you can use IPATool. It allows you to search for iOS apps on the App Store and download the app package, known as an IPA file. Once an app is found, the tool saves the encrypted IPA file to your desktop. IPATool is compatible with Windows, Linux, and macOS.

When you provide a URL for an app you want to install, MuffinStore will ask if you’d like to enter the version ID manually or get a list of version IDs from the server. If you choose to get the list, you can select and install any version from the app's entire release history. When you provide the version ID it will prompt to install.
