Delta 1.6b + Clip 1.2b betas now on AltStore PAL!
🕑 Added 2024-05-01 17:46:36 +0000 UTCHowdy Patrons!
We have quite a few updates to share with you all, but first we want to thank everyone again for the overwhelming support we have received with the launch of AltStore PAL in the EU and Delta worldwide!
Delta has now been the #1 app in the App Store for two consecutive weeks, an outstanding achievement that has only been in our dreams until now. And it’s all of you supporting us for the past few years that’s enabled us to get to this point, so from the bottom of our hearts - thank you <3
There’s been plenty of coverage on AltStore and Delta, but we’ll share a recent article from the Washington Post that we think did a great job covering this whole saga: https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2024/04/30/delta-emulator-iphone-apple-antitrust/
Now with that out of the way, let’s get into it!
First and foremost, AltStore PAL users can now access the betas of Delta and Clip! This means EU users can now experience the betas as normal apps - no refreshing!! So if you’re new here from AltStore PAL, welcome 🙂 we’re excited to have you here.
In Delta 1.6b, we’ve added brand-new gestures to make common actions more convenient. If you’re tired of needing to go to the pause menu every time you want to change your hold buttons or toggle Fast Forward, this feature is for you! Now you can just hold down the menu and do a quick gesture to activate repetitive features easily. We’re starting out with just a couple of gestures, but let us know what actions you'd like to see next!
To use the gestures, first hold down the Menu button then:
⏩ Swipe left/right (Fast Forward)
👇 Tap a button (Hold Button)
PAL users also can now access Clip 1.2b which has one major feature we’re very excited about - a custom keyboard ⌨️ This is a big QoL improvement making it much easier to use your clipboard wherever you need it. You can now access your pasteboard directly from any text field by just switching to Clip's keyboard where you can quickly see all your clippings!
We'll have lots more to share with you in the next updates, so stay tuned! :)

Impossible de télécharger. Je rejoins je quitte, l’application ne télécharge pas. Décevant. J’ai payé deux ou trois fois 3€ pour essayer la bêta, pareil. Impossible de télécharger. Quand je rejoins la communauté l’application me laisse comme ça. Si je vais dans abonnement la fenêtre du navigateur intégré se ferme mais rien.

In dark mode, the keyboard has the font color resp. Background color of the saved clipboard not adjusted, so you can't read it (white on white). Is there a fix here?

We desperately need something for 3DS roms spending several hundred dollars on old systems and games isn’t worth it when most don’t want to work.
Jan Freudenau
Still not possible to lonk patreon account with google login
Thomas Owen
Could you add it so we can download altstore on device like how scarlet does
Metal Freak
Hi, I cant link my patreon account with google login
Mark
Looking forward to the 1.6 version in Apple App Store: iPad dedicated version and Genesis report would be great!
Blake Rux
Please give delta a 3ds emulator!!
Noon
Hi , I can’t seem to install or deactivate any ipa it keeps crashing and exiting. I subscribed to beta but I’m unable to install it either
Alessio Iodice
Helllo, I did the patreon but still can't add untrusted sources...? What can I do?
voidxO7
Bug with the latest release update, the old detla logo still shows when the app is launched
Bartosz Zakowicz
Delta is amazing
David PUBERT
To avoid legal problems with Adobe about the delta logo, why not use the Unicode character Δ ?
polytox
I have a similar issue but I assume one must still use Altserver Beta?
Riley + Shane
Apologies, we realized we still needed to update the source and it will be available soon. Sorry for the inconvenience!
Alex Kavak
I purchased altstore Pal EU and this patreon subscribtion. I get altstore pal eu on my iphone. However, I unable to add any source!!! I need utm, but not need clipboard/etc. I get this subscribtion because it was written it provides links to app sources, however, I am unable to find it (links to other app repositories, posted as trusted sources on your website - NOT work!). Can you clearly overview for us - features and limitations of your altstore pal eu application?
Patrick Carmichael
Is there no Clip beta access for non-EU users?
somebody cool
I try to log in to altstore beta but it says this NSCOCOA thing anyway to fix?
Thane Greyhaven
Hi! Me again. I was asking earlier about getting Delta for Android and You said You weren't going to be doing an android release, and I have a follow up question. I do a little programming myself (very little and mostly in Visual Studio for C) and I know that modern programming environments have modules for publishing to different platforms. So I was wondering if the reason You're not publishing for Android is that it costs money to get that particular module, because that is a particular problem that I wouldn't mind throwing money at. Thanks for Your Attention!
mangoman
shouldve read this before buying haha
Martin Nilsson
It says “are you sure you want to download Delta” then the “Download Delta” button doesn’t do anything *solved by reinstalling AltStore
Martin Nilsson
Yeah, I’m logged in. The download button seems dead
Abgetrollt _

Have you already logged into Altstore with your Patreon Account https://faq.altstore.io/patreon/beta-access

Hi! Just became a Patreon. The open button isn’t working in AltStore, Delta Beta. It says “pledged”.
Dominique AGNES
Hi ! It is any chances that Delta work with Retrochievements in the future? 😇
Sean Murray
Is Clip 1.2b available to normal AlStore users (not PAL)?
Lanx T
Okay, support for Sega Genesis is a pog

Hello! I’m unable to link my Patreon account using google.
Riley + Shane
The only way to use on iPad right now is to follow instructions for AltStore (World) using AltServer on a PC/Mac
Riley + Shane
You should have received an invite in the sign-up email. Make sure to link your Discord in the Patreon account settings as well. If you still have issues, send us a DM :)
vibinivan
I just subscribed. How do I get access to the discord ?
Riley + Shane
There is currently an issue with installing to new devices - will email you back to get it sorted :)

How to install to ipad?
Luiz Carlos Silva Soares
Hello! I’d like to know if is possible to install the AltStore on IPad using the same link(button) like the iPhone version. Thanks.
MiltosDelis
Can’t login with my Apple ID on the app to update the progs any solution…? Eu user and Patreon member
Brandon Bakkers
Will there also be another payment method for Altstore PAL
matti157
Please look at the support email, I changed iPhones and to download AltStore I had to pay again with a different email from the previous one. If I tried to download AltStore with the subscription I had activated for the old iPhone, the download would not start (even pressing 100 times on the download button nothing happened)
iPhoneMaxPro
“Failed to Install Ignited AltServer could not be found.” with altstore pal I get this message if I share one of my applications in ipa format, will it be possible to install my own applications offline in the future? It would be fantastic to have a way to perhaps enable the server on altstore pal to directly use only one altstore and not two. One last thing, why can't I sign with my organizer account on altstore? (developer) for example on sidestore asks me if I want to sign with my development or distribution account, it would be great to have it on altstore too thanks
Tony Escobar
Thanks! I’m using the Patreon version with access to beta builds. I appreciate it! Please disregard my Discord question 😊.
joe
Cool, no issue, thought I might have missed some upgrade procedure for legacy patreon users, let me buy it then, thanks
Riley + Shane
AltStore PAL we needed to offer as a separate product and could not have it tied to our Patreon for many reasons. If we can find a solution in the future, we will make an announcement.
Riley + Shane
If you are only using the free version of Delta, I would recommend whatever is most convenient. If you like getting it through the App Store, by all means!
joe
I'm in the EU, do I need to pay again to get Altstore PAL if I've been a patreon member all this time? if so why?
Tony Escobar
Congratulations! Do you recommend he continue using the side loaded Delta or the official release from the App Store in the US?
Alex Rogers
Any plans to update the MelonDS core in Delta?
Martin Thomas
When will the iPad update from Delta appear in the AppStore ?
Grizzlywolf
Clip is great in this new version, but is there any chance you add support for files as well?
