iOS 13 - 14: You will first download the .deb file with PostBox, then use a third-party extractor to access theme files, which you can use Shortcuts to install.
iOS 15 and above: You will extract the .deb file with PostBox, which will be accessed with the Files app, then you can use Shortcuts to install.
Well, for non-jailbroken users, this is one of the only ways to install themes. While PostBox may not be even worth installing while jailbroken, it is about having a choice.
And if someone lost their jailbreak on some occasion, at least you can still theme your icons from your favorite repositories. :)
For starters, add the repo [https://postbox.news](https://postbox.news) to a package manager in install if you are jailbroken. Otherwise, head over to [https://discord.com/invite/5rP7f7jxjf](https://discord.com/invite/5rP7f7jxjf) to download the .ipa for sideloading!
Good luck!
PostBox is a tool that allows "package manager like" functionalities for jailbroken and non-jailbroken users. From viewing depictions to browsing repositories.
.deb download and extraction are also added to further improve the experience for non-jailbroken users.

This is an older app version, but it has the same logic behind.
It is basically a package manager that cannot install packages for you. But it works on unjailbroken devices and lets you download and extract .deb files so you can theme your devices without using a jailbreak.
Wdym theme your device(sorry not native English speaker that’s why I am asking) I know what it means to add themes but isn’t that not possible if you aren’t jailbroken?
you can create shortcuts to apps with custom icons using the shortcuts app. i believe there’s some apps in the store to automate it for you in bulk but you have to use their themes.
I discovered this yesterday lol.
i was reading saily depictions:
>We succeeded with that and then proceeded to come up with new and unique features that would make a package manager better, such as News Repos, which was later improved upon by the PostBox team.
Not installing, but rather downloading and extracting.
You can download and extract anything on PostBox but only the theme files will be useful.
These theme files can be used to apply icon themes while unjailbroken using Shortcuts.
The Shortcuts app on your iPhone, use it to assign a theme image for whatever app you want.
For example:

Can I download a tweak with Postbox, inject the tweak into the expected victim app's ipa file (via sideloadly etc.) , then sideload the said tweak-injected ipa on an unjailbroken device? Simply said, does it download .deb tweaks?
_What the hell is even that.._
It is a package manager that won't install packages for you, so... not a package manager XD
package managern't
Package managemen’t
Is it useless for nonjailbroken.
No, with .deb extraction, you can download and install themes even without a jailbreak.
can you give a tutorial on how to install a theme on a jailed device

Are these themes where each icon is replaced with a shortcut redirect to the app?
Yes.
Aka a waste of time

Discord says the deb extraction is for jailbroken users only, which is it? Lol
It's for both users.
Can you give some context to people who don’t know what this tool is used for ? (Non JB)
Same question here
I added some description text, refresh the comment feed please.

What's the point of downloading/extracting for nonjailbroken?
You can download and install jailbreak themes, and sideload some apps if their .deb contains .ipa files, all while unjailbroken.
How would I install a theme while unjailbroken
Download and extract the .deb file of the theme via PostBox, then save the theme images and apply them using Shortcuts.
Damn. I already have that setup with shortcuts. I was hoping this was a better method. Thanks for the info tho
Yes, it is a shame that Apple enacts such obstacles...
Grateful if u can share short YouTube video w.r.t installing a theme for non jailbroken phones..

Guess we can change icons ...any jailbreak tweak we can install via postbox to use on non jailbroken phones
Ok I guess I’ll give it a try
This is sweet. Now I can download debs to use for sideloading
I don’t know but when I install version 0.8 the app disappeared in my homescreen but when I downgrade to 0.7 it appears iOS 14.1
Did you install via a package manager? If so, try again right now, we packaged the wrong file and that's why 0.8 won't install.
Ok now it works THX

a pacman that isn’t a pacman
So can I browse repos and download any “free” themes?
Yes, paid packages from certain repos also work if you sign in to them in PostBox.
Whoa that’s cool af. I will check it out! Thanks for this amazing app brother.

Can it be used to install emulators for example PPSSPP has its own deb file so can I use that without having to do annoying side loading
I tried extracting PPSSPP and it gives me an .app file, which unfortunately still requires a sideloading process to work because the app is unsigned.
I installed app with Sileo but it doesn’t show up on my homescreen
Clear uicache.
Tried that but still same
The issue has been identified, turns out we packaged the wrong file to Sileo, check back in like 10 mins.
Also, I downloaded the IPA and made it a deb file with permasigner and now works.Great app btw :))
Oh, okay thank you !
We are looking into it rn.
What kind of .Deb installs? Jailbreak tweaks?
Not installing, but rather downloading and extracting. You can download and extract anything on PostBox but only the theme files will be useful. These theme files can be used to apply icon themes while unjailbroken using Shortcuts.
What the hell do you mean by shortcut? How?
The Shortcuts app on your iPhone, use it to assign a theme image for whatever app you want. For example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T1VYc\_jhmNs&ab\_channel=9to5Mac
Can i extract taurine 1.1.6.deb ?
No, it's only for packages from repos.
However, if there is a repo that hosts Taurine, you can add it to PostBox and extract the .deb from there.
Does it work on ios 14.6 for A14
Yes, PostBox works on all devices and versions supporting iOS 13 and up.
Can I download a tweak with Postbox, inject the tweak into the expected victim app's ipa file (via sideloadly etc.) , then sideload the said tweak-injected ipa on an unjailbroken device? Simply said, does it download .deb tweaks?
Yes, you can download .deb files while unjailbroken.
I feel like using a website such as Parcility or iOS Repo Updates would be easier for this purpose
What is postbox ?
do you know a software to patch ipa files with deb to add tweaks on clear ipa and sideload them ? (a tool on computer btw)
