# How to install uYou



### Jailbroken Devices



Add __[https://miro92.com/repo](https://miro92.com/repo)__ to your Cydia/Zebra/Sileo sources and download it from there.

### Sideloading (No Jailbreak)

Download the IPA file from releases and follow one of the options below:

* (Option 1) [Sideloading with Sideloadly](#sideloading-with-sideloadly).

* (Option 3) You can get a paid subscription from a signing store where you can download the latest uYou directly from your device and have it available for 1 year instead of 7 days. I recommend using [https://flekstore.com](https://flekstore.com/uYou) since they always have the latest official IPA from this page.
