      [Apps revoked] TweakBox and TutuApp not working (apps not installing or downloading), users look for alternatives

      This article is being continuously updated. New updates are being added at the bottom…..

      Click/tap to view old updates

      Popular third party app installer and iOS jailbreak alternative TweakBox is currently seeming to be acting glitchy. Users are taking to social media platforms like Twitter to complain problems like apps (such as Spotify++) not installing and revoked access.

      Here are some reports:

      Hey @TweakBoxApp I got some problem when download tweaked apps like this, how to fix it? pic.twitter.com/zUCtTBHWZ3

      — Mojo Jojo (@nugietriatmojo) February 9, 2019

      @TweakBoxApp are the apps still good? I think they may have just been revoked or possibly i’m just having trouble re-downloading them

      — MontyP84 (@P84Monty) February 9, 2019

      @TweakBoxApp you’re apps aren’t working again, it says they need to be verified but nothing happens when you verify them.

      — e t h a n (@ethan6838) February 9, 2019

      @TweakboxSupport @Outcast1337 @federable @Wiillk3 @FRSpoke All tweakbox apps I try will finish downloading and then just stay like this. Help pic.twitter.com/Sohwry3WXD

      — USA 1 (@USA195715320) February 9, 2019

      @TweakBoxApp
      This is showing up when I try to download tweakbox. Can I get help or some tips to be able to download it again pic.twitter.com/4G7XAFlFJj

      — Astrid Rose (@AstridRose11) February 9, 2019

      Whenever I try to open an app I downloaded from tweakbox this pops up 🤦🏻‍♀️ What do I do?? pic.twitter.com/HMtrFoDz61

      — Denisse 🏳️‍🌈 (@itsNeesy) February 9, 2019

      The apps are not loading when I download them. Even with https://t.co/pFVFHR3Gbu

      — Swan McFall (@SwanMcfall) February 9, 2019

      FWIW, this is what Tweakbox had said earlier this week:

      Apps have just been revoked, fixing them already, once they stop working for you: Delete them, reinstall them, and trust them again in settings ❤️

      — TweakBox (@TweakBoxApp) February 5, 2019

      Should be fixed now, give it a try

      — TweakBox (@TweakBoxApp) February 5, 2019

      Moving on, even the Tutu app installer is broken. Take a look at some reports:

      Doesn’t work either

      — Carlos Casas (@CCasasMXD) February 9, 2019

      The App again crashed
      Could u plz fix it

      — Incredible (@X1lxx) February 9, 2019

      @TutuApp_vip
      Plz the App crashed again !!!

      — Incredible (@X1lxx) February 9, 2019

      For its part, teams behind both Tutu and TweakBox haven’t said anything on the matter yet. But we’re keeping an active tab, so if you are affected, keep checking back for latest updates.

      Update 1

      Team Tutu app has now said this:

      Revoked again😭
      We are working on it.
      Please be patient.😭
      Sorry for the inconvenience. pic.twitter.com/QeT6ERWTWl

      — TutuApp (@TutuApp_vip) February 9, 2019

      Update 2

      Apple released the much awaited iOS 12.1.4 yesterday. It might be possible the new OS broke these third party app installers.

      @TweakBoxApp Hi no idea whats the issue, but I am now no longer able to install apps. in the homescreen it shows an empty grey icon logo and say unable to install or something. This happened since the new iOS update yesterday, no idea if that affects anything.

      — Zhen Kit (@zhenkit) February 9, 2019

      I haven’t updated my phone since last summer but I had to get a new phone because apple broke it during a battery replacement. With the newest IOS update, is that preventing my from getting apps off tweak box ?

      — Isaiah Montalvo (@omgitszay_) February 9, 2019

      Update 3

      As an alternative, we’d suggest trying AppValley (@appvalley_vip on Twitter). They have many of the apps that are popular on TweakBox. Do let us know your experience in case you give App Valley a try.

      Hey guys use appvalley if you want Spotify +++. I’m not sure how long tweak box will have this glitch but until then app valley will be used.

      — TS7 is coming (@thegayswiftie) February 9, 2019

      Meanwhile, here’s another user-suggested alternative:

      If it’s still revoked install @iPABoxApp !!! I hope I save a life 😤 same tweaks and everything

      — ‏ً (@sicckorose) February 9, 2019

      Update 4

      Contrary to what we thought earlier, looks like this TweakBox app revoked issue has nothing to do with the latest iOS 12.1.4 update.

      Must be the app then, my friend has the same issue and she hasn't updated yet also.

      — Zhen Kit (@zhenkit) February 9, 2019

      Update 5

      Looks like the issues have been fixed by the team.

      Apps foxed, sorry for the delay 😤

      — TweakBox (@TweakBoxApp) February 9, 2019

      Let us know in the comments section below if you still face any problem.

      Update 6

      Some users are still facing issues with apps installation. Here are a few reports:

      Still doesn’t what should I do 😭😭😭😭😤 pic.twitter.com/ySNCj5Sp1M

      — Dan Dan ♋️🌙🦀❤️ (@DannyAg68266423) February 9, 2019

      @TweakBoxApp mine still isn’t downloading for some reason

      — Dqddy (@Dqddy5) February 9, 2019

      Still no good.

      — ✭ Exquisit ✭ (@Menag3_a_Trois) February 9, 2019

      Still not working

      — Abraham (@AbeTheRock) February 9, 2019

      it won’t still download

      — ғoυя (@four_spices) February 9, 2019

      If you are also affected, we suggest you try the following workaround:

      It’s working for me delete Tweakbox redownload it and it should work 💯💯💯

      — 1.kevo_ (@kjmadd213) February 9, 2019

      Update 7

      TweakBox also suggests you do a restart in case you are still facing problems.

      Restart your device

      — TweakBox (@TweakBoxApp) February 9, 2019

      Its always delete and reinstall when this happens

      — TweakBox (@TweakBoxApp) February 9, 2019

      Update 8

      In a new development, TweakBox suggests users to download apps again.

      Should be fixed https://t.co/nXYd0xWjs4

      — TweakBox (@TweakBoxApp) February 9, 2019

      The team also suggested one affected to user to use VPN.

      Puedes probar usando un VPN?

      — TweakBox (@TweakBoxApp) February 9, 2019

      And the workaround seems to be working for some.

      Using a vpn to me it works!@TweakBoxApp

      — Relixo (@RelixoHabbo) February 9, 2019

      Update 9

      TweakBox has now confirmed the problem is at their end, specifically with their CDN company.

      Turns out the issue is again the CDN company. This the second time already. If you can, please use a VPN as that will fix it.

      — TweakBox (@TweakBoxApp) February 9, 2019

      Update 10 (February 11)

      Seems like those who have issues installing apps are:
      – not deleting the apps before installing them back
      – using an ios beta
      – have a developer profile in settings

      — TweakBox (@TweakBoxApp) February 10, 2019

      Update 11 (February 13)

      TweakBox is again acting glitchy.

      @TweakBoxApp yo ur app is not letting me download any of the apps I had n yes I redownload tweakbox still won’t let me download any apps

      — That dude with civic si (@Blackhawk42z) February 13, 2019

      The team behind TweakBox says:

      APPS FIXED! 🔥

      When apps stop working for you:

      Delete them and reinstall them.
      Then go to settings > General > Profiles & Device Management > enterprise Application > verify or trust

      — TweakBox (@TweakBoxApp) February 13, 2019

      We are the quickest to fix the apps. There is no way to fix this and every service has to deal with it. I know it sucks, but it does not break because of us.

      — TweakBox (@TweakBoxApp) February 13, 2019

      Update 12 (February 28)

      TuTuApp and Tweakbox are experiencing issues for the second time today as users complain about inability to download and install apps. More info here.

      Update 13 (July 16)

      Tweakbox users are again complaining about apps not working. You can take a look at a long string of complaints here.

      For its part, the official Tweakbox Twitter account had tweeted the following a few hours ago:

      APPS FIXED blah blah
      Delete old apps and reinstall them blah blah.
      You know the drill #TweakBoxFam 🔥🤟🏼❤️

      — TweakBox (@TweakBoxApp) July 15, 2019

      However, latest comments from users suggest these steps aren’t helpful. Here’s an example:

      Bro spotify stopped working again 🙁

      — hakan kariparduç (@hakannocturnal) July 16, 2019

      Update 14 (July 16)

      Well, a couple of hours ago, Tweakbox fixed the issue and said apps can be downloaded again, but we are again seeing user reports that say apps have been revoked again.

      revoked again..

      — Svilen Dzhonev (@zziggyyy) July 16, 2019

      Update 15 (July 18)

      Aaaand the problem continues. Tweakbox apps have been revoked again on iOS, and the developer is suggesting users to wait for sometime. Meanwhile, as a workaround, here’s what Tweakbox has shared:

      When apps are down you can use (link: http://sideload.tweakboxapp.com) sideload.tweakboxapp.com and install apps using your PC/Mac, there is a tutorial on the site. + A nice update is coming to it

      Competitors meanwhile are making the most out of this situation:

      tutuapp-lite

      Update 15 (July 19)

      A Tweakbox tweet from a few hours ago suggested users have to wait for some more time before apps are back, but the latest tweet – although cryptic in nature – indicates the issue is almost about to get over.

      Update 16 (July 19)

      The issue is finally fixed. Here is what Tweakbox said a few hours ago:

      It’s fixed.
      Delete old apps and reinstall new apps!
      Settings ➜ General ➜ Profiles & Device Management ➜ Enterprise App ➜ Trust
      Thanks for the patience

      However, there are still some hiccups. See this and this.

      Update 17 (July 22)

      We just woke up and found Twekabox has again been experiencing issues since yesterday.

      tweakbox

      Update 18 (July 25)

      The apps have been revoked again. While a fix is being worked on, Tweakbox suggests not to close any already open apps. They also recommend using SideloadBox. More details here.

      Update 19 (July 31)

      Tweakbox users are again reporting issues today. While the developer says apps have been fixed:

      Apps fixed!
      Delete old apps and reinstall new ones!
      Settings ➜ General ➜ Profiles & Device Management ➜ Enterprise App ➜ Trust

      Complaints are still pouring in.

      Update 20 (August 07)

      Tweakbox is again experiencing issues as apps got revoked a few hours ago. Although the developer claimed they have fixed the problem, users continue to complain.

      Update 21 (August 15)

      Tweakbox Twitter account has confirmed apps have been revoked again. Meanwhile, here’s a workaround.

      Update 22 (August 16)

      The issue has now been resolved.

      *AHEM* fixed *AHEM*
      Delete old apps and reinstall them!
      Settings ➜ General ➜ Profiles & Device Management ➜ Enterprise App ➜ Trust

      Update 23 (August 23)

      Looks like Tweakbox is again having issues. Here’s what the team said through their official Twitter account:

      Or maybe not. Something is broken, we are on it

      Update 24 (August 24)

      The problem hasn’t been fixed yet, and looks like it may take some more time. Here’s the latest status offered by team Tweakbox:

      Just for real, its so late and we have been up trying to fix this since the revoke, I don’t know how many hours, but we will get it fixed soon, just hang on tight please

      Update 25 (August 25)

      While the issue was fixed yesterday, it’s now coming to light the apps have been revoked again.

      Update 26 (August 26)

      Although the apps revoke issue was fixed a few hours ago, a new problem has come to light where-in random apps are being installed on users phone instead of the one they are requesting.

      tweakbox-bug

      As you can see in the screenshot above, Tweakbox says it’s looking into the problem.

      Update 27 (August 26)

      More bad news, apps have been revoked again.

      Update 28 (August 26)

      Tweakbox says the issue they are currently facing isn’t common, but they are working on a fix.

      This is not common, but we know what it is, just takes a bit of patience and pushing through it together

      Update 29 (August 26)

      The apps revoke issue has been fixed.

      Update 30 (August 30)

      Apps have been revoked yet again.

      Update 31 (August 30)

      Update 34 (September 05)

      Tweakbox app’s official Twitter account has been suspended. We are not sure about the reason as yet, but are looking for more information on this.

      Update 35 (September 05)

      Well well, Tweakbox is in a legal trouble this time. Complete story here.

      Update 36 (September 12)

      A different Tweakbox app account (different from the official one that got suspended) has now acknowledged the app revoke issue, saying they are working to fix. How legit is this account, their claim and whether it’s operated by the actual Tweakbox app team, there’s no confirmation about it.

      tweakbox-apps-revoked

      Update 37 (September 13)

      Regarding the revoked apps issue, Tweakbox’s new twitter account has confirmed it’s their official account and says:

      Apps revoked 😪

      Whe have some problems in our servers (apps not installing or downloading)
