Quick answers and pointers into the rest of the docs.
How do I...
- Put an app on the Home Screen > Add to Home Screen
- Enable JIT > JIT Support
- Install LC2 / LC3 > Multiple LiveContainers
- Load tweaks > Tweaks
- Clean data, keychain, or App Group folders > Data Management
- Keep multiple accounts > Containers & External Data
- Open a URL inside a guest > use the link icon on the Apps tab and paste the URL, or add a share-sheet shortcut to Favorites
- Edit container preferences > long-press > Settings > (container) > Container Preferences
Widgets, plugins, and extensions
Generally unsupported - those features need extra app IDs that LiveContainer cannot register for guests.
Fast triage checklist
- Update to a current stable or nightly build.
- Confirm AltStore/SideStore is healthy and refreshed.
- Sideload the same IPA directly; if it still fails, the IPA is at fault.
- Export crash logs from Settings > Privacy & Security > Analytics > Analytics Data.
- Note the LiveContainer build hash (bottom of Settings), iOS version, and device model.

Before opening a GitHub issue
- Search existing issues and the compatibility label.
- Include app name/version (and repo if open source), LiveContainer version plus commit hash (for example
3.1.0 c586e79), iOS version, device model, reproduction steps, and a crash report when available.
