Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/LiveContainer/LiveContainer/issues/372

I'm planning to release version 3.3.0 in the following weeks; please help us to test out the new version.
This update includes several compatibility and bug fixes, as well as new features such as JITStreamer-EB support and the ability to install from URLs and share sheets. Additionally, we have changed some confusing text.

Note

Due to a change of LiveContainer's entitlement and a bug with SideStore/AltStore, SideStore 0.6.0+ / AltStore 2.0+ is required to install LiveContainer 3.2.55+
You can download the latest nightly build of v3.3.0 from my repo.

New Features

You can now install apps directly from a URL by using the plus button on the "My Apps" page or by using an install URL like livecontainer://install?url=xxxxxxx. Additionally, you can share an IPA file directly from other apps via the share sheet. (Please note that iOS may hide LiveContainer in the "More" section—simply tap "More" and scroll down to find it.)

Files can now be shared to guest apps when they are running through the share sheet.

Implement #320

JITStreamer-EB Support

JITStreamer-EB is now available in LiveContainer. To use it:

Set it up first in JITStreamer-EB's website
Go to LiveContainer settings->JIT Enabler->Select JITStreamer-EB. You can leave the "Address" blank if you are using official server and it's default to http://[fd00::]:9172.
Long press the app that needs JIT->Settings->enable Launch with JIT->Tap Run, LiveContainer will contact the server and enable JIT for that app.

Note

JIT is broken in iOS 18.4 Beta 1, please avoid this version.

"Entitlement File" Section in JITLess Diagnose

The "Entitlement File" section is now available in the JITLess Diagnose page, making it easier and more accurate to diagnose issues with your JITLess setup.

Personal Certificate Support (Untestsed)

LiveContainer can now be used without SideStore/AltStore if you import the certificate used to sign it. Please note that for LiveContainer to work correctly, some changes must be made to the bundle and entitlement:

The bundle ID must match the one in the .mobileprovision file without a prefix.
LiveContainer must be signed with the get-task-allow=true entitlement, meaning Enterprise certificates will not work.
To use the keychain separation feature, LiveContainer must be signed with the correct entitlement. Please refer to entitlements.xml for the required keychain access groups.

You can check these criteria in Settings->JITLess Diagnose->Entitlement File. All items except com.apple.security.application-groups should be green.

Implement #54 #64 #231

Up to 128 Containers Per App

With the release of SideStore 0.6.0, which fixes the entitlement issue with Keychain Access Groups, you can now create up to 128 containers for each app. Each container created in version 3.3.0 will be assigned a random Keychain Access Group to prevent crashes caused by Keychain Access Group collisions.

Hide LiveContainer

To bypass some app's injection detection, 3 following options are added to app-specific settings.

Hide LiveContainer from Dyld Api
Don't Inject TweakLoader
Don't Load TweakLoader

For most apps, enabling the first two options should be sufficient to bypass injection detection. However, please note that if TweakLoader is not loaded, some features (like app fast switching) may not be available.

Fix #146 #338

Archive Option when Installing 2nd LiveContainer

You can now archive the second LiveContainer instead of installing it directly, allowing you to customize it as needed.

Bug Fixes

Fix #314: Frameworks in the tweaks folder are now signed and injected correctly.
Fix #318: Resolved an issue in fishhook that caused crashes when handling invalid symtab_index.
Fix #332: Fixed a dyld issue where the wrong image was being used when dyld functions were hooked.
Fix #329: Replaced PAGEZERO with LC_ID_DYLIB to resolve segment-related issues.
Fix #358 #374: Dopamine's dyld patch is taken into account when bypassing dyld library validation.
Fixed UI issues when the "Button Shape" accessibility setting was enabled.
Improved some previously confusing or misleading text.

Hi,

I am currently running iOS 18.2.1 with AltStore 2.0.2. I have been using LiveContainer 3.2.0 without any issues. However, today I tried LiveContainer versions 3.2.61 and 3.2.62 and encountered a problem with JIT-less mode.

I sideloaded the IPA using AltStore, but on the app's settings page, it says "Patch SideStore." Additionally, in the JIT-less mode diagnostic, it states "Store: SideStore," even though I sideloaded it using AltStore. Unfortunately, I cannot use SideStore on my phone.

Is this a bug, or did I make a mistake?

Apple nuked JIT in iOS 18.4 Beta 1, so it is not possible to enable JIT in iOS 18.4 Beta 1 and later at this moment.

Just wanted to mention, apple did reverse the jit being broken, this case is specific to that ios version.

Is there any way we could remove the white home bar at the bottom when playing a game through livecontainer? @hugeBlack

@Mspy1 It's the app's responsibility to remove the home bar. If you are playing a relatively old game you might need a tweak to do this. LiveContainer won't help you to achieve this.

So for the JITStreamer-EB part, is it true that WireGuard does not need to be running when in use?
