This is a relatively painless way to switch between multiple emulator apps. Luckily, the AltStore app has a nice feature where you can “deactivate” apps you currently aren’t using, and then re-activate them when you’re ready to run the app again. So you’ll need to decide which two apps you want to have on your phone at any one given time.

Note that when first installing the AltStore app onto your device, you’re going to need to use your App Store login credentials.ĭue to the limitations that Apple imposes on free developer accounts, you will be limited to running only three apps at one time on your phone (and one of those apps must be the AltStore app). The links to the AltServer app itself are found on the AltStore front page. In the video above I walk you through the Windows process, which is a bit trickier than the MacOS method. To set it up, head over to the AltStore FAQ page and follow along to the steps for your respective computer operating system. I’ll keep this guide updated with the latest developments going forward.ĪltStore is a special app that allows you to sideload other apps, including emulators. My advice is to be patient with new iOS updates, and give the development teams to catch up. With each new iOS update, some things may get broken, or (very rarely) things might actually improve. One final note before we get started: emulation on iOS is a moving target. There are other options available, like the Razer Kishi or GameSir X2 BT controller, but the Backbone One is miles better than these options thanks to its ease of use and helpful app integration. Like with my previous video about gaming on an iPhone (which covered standalone games, Apple Arcade, and streaming), the Backbone One is an essential component of gaming on iOS. So let’s set up your iPhone as a retro game emulation device - no jailbreaking required. But something as simple as running an NES game can be quite challenging.
The iPhone can do a lot of things seamlessly, and it’s a very powerful device. Last updated: 27JAN2022 (see Changelog for details)
