For so long, iOS users could rely on Cydia to let them download their favorite unofficial apps and games, not to mention tweaks, libraries, mods, and much more. But recent years have seen a decline in jailbreak utilities, prompting the developers of one of the most popular Cydia apps to redevelop their app.
vShare now works for anyone without the need to jailbreak, providing a fantastic alternative, not just to Cydia, but also to the official iOS app store. It’s all free so read on for all the details.
What is vShare?
vShare is one of the single most popular third-party app stores in the world. With thousands of unofficial apps, games, and more, it offers more than many similar stores, and you even get the choice of a free or VIP version. Packed with features, it offers users an experience second to none, so you’ll want to install it straight away.

Commonly Asked Questions:
These answers tell you everything you need to know about vShare
Is vShare Safe?
Yes. You don’t need to root or jailbreak your device and it doesn’t need any special permissions to install. However, as with any unofficial apps, you are advised to install a VPN and antivirus software on your device. Some devices will also find that vShare is flagged as malware because it asks for specific permissions – it is not and is perfectly safe to use.
How Do vShare Lite and vShare VIP Membership Differ?
While both give you access to all the cool advanced app features, they are not the same thing. vShare Lite is the paid version of the app – once, you would have had to purchase one version for every device you wanted it on. Now you just need to set up a VIP membership, link your devices and you can use one purchase on all iOS devices – doesn’t work cross-platform.
Is There an Early Renewal Discount?
Yes, you can get 10% off if your renewal is due within 60 days.
Is vShare Legal?
vShare is perfectly legal to use but it is an app store for modified and free unofficial content. If it makes you uncomfortable to use this type of content, you may want to stick with the official app stores.
Are the Apps and Games Dangerous?
All app stores come with that chance, even the official ones. The vShare developers monitor their app and fix any issues that arise but you can use anti-virus software to cover your own back.
Try vShare today – it works cross-platform and offers more content than many other similar stores.
