Side Store automatic license refresh shortcut

[Tachev777]

🧩 What it does

This shortcut ensures your iPhone automatically connects to Wi-Fi (if needed) and refreshes your SideStore license whenever an internet connection becomes available.

It’s designed for users who want their SideStore setup to stay active without having to manually open the app or reconnect Wi-Fi every few days.

⚙️ How it works

1. The shortcut runs when Wi-Fi becomes disconnected or at a scheduled time (depending on your trigger).
2. It checks if Wi-Fi is turned on: If not, it turns Wi-Fi on.
3. It waits a few seconds to allow the connection to stabilize.
4. Once connected, it launches SideStore.
5. SideStore automatically refreshes its license in the background.
6. After that, the shortcut can optionally close the app or stop itself.

🧠 Why it’s useful

• Keeps SideStore active without needing manual refreshes.
• Prevents license expiration errors.
• Works silently and automatically whenever Wi-Fi becomes available.

⚡ Notes

• Make sure SideStore is already configured with a valid Apple ID certificate.
• Keep “Ask Before Running” turned off for full automation.
• Works best if your device regularly connects to a stable Wi-Fi network.

⚙️ How to Create an Automatic Trigger in Shortcuts

1. Open the Shortcuts app on your iPhone.
2. Tap the “Automation” tab at the bottom.
3. Tap “+” → “Create Personal Automation.”
4. Choose what should trigger the shortcut. Examples:

• App: run when you open or close an app (like SideStore).
• Battery Level: run when your battery reaches a certain percentage.
• Charger: run when you connect or disconnect your charger. 
5. After choosing the trigger, tap “Next.”
6. Then find and click on the "Side Store" shortcut.

(I recommend doing it for 12 AM)
