PPQ (Provisioning Profile Query) is a system Apple uses to track detailed information about what apps are being installed and opened on your device using a signing certificate.
Both the Pro and Premium plans use PPQLess signing, which means Apple does not receive detailed tracking information about what apps you install or open. This provides greater privacy for your sideloading activity.
FlareStore VIP (paid) certificates have been tested and confirmed working on a wide range of versions:
The certificates themselves are broadly compatible across all these versions.
The FlareStore app requires:
- iOS / iPadOS / tvOS 16.0 or later
- visionOS 1.0 or later
- macOS 13.0 or later
If you are on a lower version, you can still use another signing app with your FlareStore certificate.
The FlareStore iOS/iPadOS app also supports installing to wireless Apple TV 4K's without a computer (currently in beta). See the Apple TV guide for details.
Certificates are delivered instantly in most cases.

Free certificates:

- Are stolen from companies
- High revoke rate
- May blacklist your device from using free certificates without a reset
Paid certificates do not encounter any of these issues. You can still use a paid certificate even if your device has been blacklisted from free certificates.
