Describe the bug

Private apps open in Multitask mode when “Launch in Multitask Mode by Default is enabled”
When running an app with JIT, the app opens before Stikdebug gets the chance to connect.

Instructions to reproduce

  1. Enable Launch in Multitask Mode by Default
  2. Run any private app

What version of LiveContainer and iOS are you using?

de473a2 iPadOS 18.5 (22F76)

Verify steps

  • I downloaded LiveContainer from releases / actions section or LiveContainer's AltStore source.
  • I have the latest LiveContainer.
  • I installed LiveContainer through AltStore/SideStore/TrollStore or I'm confident that I signed LiveContainer correctly with all required entitlements.

It's not a bug, it's a feature.

It was not possible to launch private apps in multitask back then due to some technical limitation. Now that it was fixed, the toggle now includes private apps as expected. If you wish to run private apps solely in normal mode, use Launch App Shortcut.

Additionally, a multitask process has to start first for StikDebug to get the process identifier (PID).
