This repository contains the code for our iOS and iPadOS port of PojavLauncher. Looking for [Android?](https://github.com/PojavLauncherTeam/PojavLauncher)

## Getting started with PojavLauncher
The [PojavLauncher Website](https://pojavlauncherteam.github.io/INSTALL.html#ios) has extensive documentation on how to install, set up, and play! For those who wish to install quickly, here's the basics:

### Setting up to sideload
PojavLauncher can be sideloaded in many ways. Our recommended solution is to install [TrollStore](https://github.com/opa334/TrollStore) if your iOS version supports it. Installing with TrollStore allows you to permenantly sign the application, automatically enable JIT, and increase memory limits.

For iOS/iPadOS 17.0: Unfortunately,the above process will not work. It is required that you must use [TrollRestore](https://github.com/JJTech0130/TrollRestore). Any versions above iOS/iPadOS 17.0 will NOT be supported (as of December 23, 2024).

If you cannot, [AltStore](https://altstore.io) and [SideStore](https://sidestore.io) are your next best options.
- Signing services that do not use your UDID (and use distribution certificates) are not supported, as PojavLauncher requires capabilities they do not allow. However, if you do managed to gain access to a Development certificate, due to it having the necessary entitlement (being com.apple.security.get-task-allow) to attach a debugger to the running process (enabling JIT), you may use a Development certificate.

- Only install sideloading software and PojavLauncher from trusted sources. We are not responsible for any harm caused by using unofficial software.
- Jailbreaks also benefit from permenant signing, autoJIT, and increased memory limits, however we do not recommend them for regular use.

### Enabling JIT
PojavLauncher makes use of **just-in-time compilation**, or JIT, to provide usable speeds for the end user. JIT is not supported on iOS without the application being debugged, so workarounds are required to enable it. You can use this chart to determine the best solution for you and your setup.
