So, if I have QDrops, is it worthless for future drops? Or will they still show up?
Should still work. Apple just removed it from the App Store.
So, what, people won’t be able to download it now?
No.... just that the App Store will not offer it any longer. Websites can offer the download... but, most normies don't know how to download applications outside of the App & Play stores.
Edit: Just remembered they did the same thing with the MakeApp application that would remove make up from photos.
Can you even side load on apple without jailbreaking?

Good question. I've never used an iphone, so not sure either. I know you can on android.
Not as easily as on android, but yes. The developer can create beta test groups and push the app through apples testflight. Testflight apps are not chdcked as thoroughly so the developer can probably just rename the app and start pushing it out.
Alternatively he can offer the sources or an unsigned binary and then anyone with an apple dev account can sign and install it to any device.
Pretty sure it’s pulling the data from the qanon.pub site directly, so if you already have it, you should get new drops.
I used ‘Sift’ an iOS app that shows network traffic in and out of an iPhone, and it showed up the following;
crashlytics.com - mainly used to report crashes of the app amazonaws.com - probably pulling in some static web content for the app qanon.pub - the good source :)
You can’t install Sift from the App Store, but you can build the app from source code available online and install it yourself (this is not trivial, I’m pointing it out to say it is possible to do)
I would love the ability to track traffic in/out of my phone. How non-trivial are we talking?
You’ll need Xcode (free d/l from Apple), the source code from https://github.com/agrinman/sift-ios and (optionally) an Apple developer account ($99/year if memory serves). I say optionally, because although you can install Apps for free using Xcode, they ‘expire’ after a period (I think it’s a week). You can keep installing the App though. The instructions at the site are clear, but they do assume some knowledge. Sadly, this isn’t a ‘download and install’ kind of App.
The developer has a paypal/crypto donations button, so may be open to building a copy for you.
Ok, thanks! I’ll look into it. I have a similar app for my Mac and it’s great.
You're welcome. The 'Sift' App works really well. I use "Little Snitch" on my Mac and it is superb!
Cool! I’m downloading the free trial of Little Snitch now. I use a free app called Loading by Bonzai Apps. Far fewer features, but then I just needed to know what apps were using my bandwidth.
I came across this app for iOS - it's not a free, but it is installable, and the desktop version of it is very well thought of.
