seems like Enable Jailbreak Bypass(Experimental) does not help

Quick update from network comparisons (iPhone vs PlayCover):

On launch the game fetches two resources from listdl.com (paths include iedsafe).
About ~1 minute later it triggers a third fetch (path includes gamesafe).
PlayCover crashes at that point.
Right at the crash moment it also attempts to open a connection to glcs.listdl.com:443, but the connection drops immediately because the app terminates.
On a real iPhone, there’s no crash and the glcs.listdl.com:443 connection stays alive.

Given the iedsafe / gamesafe paths, this looks related to the security / anti-cheat flow (ACE?).

Given the iedsafe / gamesafe paths, this looks related to the security / anti-cheat flow (ACE?).

I looked into this issue myself yesterday. My best guess is it is somehow related to certificates with listdl.com. It's the only thing that matched what I was seeing in Wireshark.

Duet Night Abyss had the same issue. It links to an online config file (config2.yaml for Endifeld). Duet Night Abyss' one is this: https://dl.listdl.com/gamesafe/mobile/huiwan/ios/com.panstudio.duetnightabyss.arpg.global/config2.xml
And Endfield's one is just a different file type, config2.yaml. You can locate the config2/3 files in Data in playcover, and they have a hash attached, but from what I've found out with research is that it prompts the laptop for more than 'device' name but hardware capability and other similar stuff, and blocks the request to authorise the game session if it doesn't match the specified device (aka mac, iphone, etc.). As for why it lasts a minute - probably just takes that long to get a response. Anywho, because the playcover 'masking' of devices isn't perfect, the hash config files aren't allowed through and we crash. From my experience with Duet Night Abyss it often turns up as looking like render issues or hardware conflicts in the terminal/ crash output, but if it's the anti-cheat sending a response back that our device is 'incompatible' and unable to implement the stuff in the game then the game probably crashes even though it does actually work. I think Huiwan is closely related to Tencent (or owned by them) Who use kernel-level Anti Cheat (ACE)
