Homebrew is there was a way to download dsi shop apps to sd then save them to dsi

[Homerjc]

Asking because I lost flipnote studio, and now I cannot download it through the dsi shop

I think that's impossible. Since the DSi Shop closed, you need an exploit or hardmod to inject DSiWare games into the DSi.

Well actually, you could save apps to sd and put the sd in another ds that didnt have that app and you could copy them.

No, it doesn't work like this:
When you copy a DSiWare game to the SD card, you just copy the data of the game and not the game. It would be too simple to hack a DSi if not.

Then how did I copy photo clock to my brothers dsi?

Try it but I tell you it's impossible without exploit or hardmod

DSi Ware Apps are signed with a code which is exclusive to your console. Copy pasting apps is possible, they will never show up or work though. If they are copy pasted to another device, the device will miss the signature on the app. It simply can not be done and thus you're screwed mate. I am sorry. As @MyDePain noted, it can be achieved by a hardmod or an exploit.

I guess because he downloaded it before.

I just re-read the original post and he said hez had it before. Could he just copy it because he has downloaded it already before?

Yes.
