Please try again with the latest nightly build. If it still happens, send your crash report in iOS settings -> Privacy & Security -> Analytics & Improvements -> Analytics Data -> Search LiveContainer

It might be something with the update, I'm also having trouble with Apollo. However I'm on the latest dev beta. But both dev beta 6 & 18.6.1 release a few days ago. And that's when my problem started.

I can run it tho, but if I start it in multitasker it says "App has been closed". All other app works in multitasker-mode.

Same problem just occurred. Tried restarts, repairing, JIT. Nothing worked, perchance I thought I should go check issues on GitHub and found this. Please fix if possible.

We've confirmed that this issue is caused by iOS 18.6.1 and are looking into it. For now you can downgrade to 3.5.1 if you really wish to use the app in LiveContainer.

Downgraded to 3.5.1, iPhone 16 Pro Max iOS 18.6.1, still noting.

Latest stable livecontainer on my iPhone 14 Pro Max iOS 26 Beta 2 still works just fine. Will hold off from going to beta 3 untill this is resolved.

@DicerX you need to enable "fix black screen" in app's settings in 3.5.1.

I have same behavior on iOS 26, is the solution of downgrading LC viable in that case as well?
