Run many sideloaded apps from one installed app
LiveContainer is an iPhone app launcher that runs other .ipa apps inside itself, so only LiveContainer uses an app ID and the free-account three-app limit doesn't apply to the guest apps. You can keep several versions of an app with separate data containers. It is not an emulator or hypervisor.
It needs iOS 15 or newer (multitasking needs 16) and is installed through AltStore 2.0+ or SideStore 0.6.0+, either as a standalone build or bundled with SideStore. Below iOS 26 it can skip signing when JIT is available; on iOS 26 guest apps are signed with LiveContainer's certificate. Open issues report iOS 27 problems such as AirPlay to an external display showing black (#1694).
