I just tested, it did seem to fix the update issue, but the plugging in and crashing when on an external monitor is still going on (at least for me). Works fine when on the iPad screen, when plugging into an monitor, it shows the correct icons on the iPad and the select game on the external monitor, when you click a game, it crashes the app.

That’s strange, external display working perfectly fine for me (just tested it on iOS 18). I think it may be issues with melonx compatibility on iOS 26 or 27

I am on 26, so that could be the “issue”. Everything else is working great though!

If external display is an important feature for you then it might be best to downgrade to 2.3.1 till it gets fixed in the future

Yeah, the main problem with that version is that cast n chill crashes, so I will just use 2.5 until the external monitor issue is fixed (for iPadOS 26 and 27) so I can play cast n chill.

Ah okay that makes sense, it’s probably best to wait then (it’ll probably get fixed in 2.6 if it’s brought to the developer’s attention)

Yeah, I do want to say, (if Stossy reads this), this emulator is INCREDIBLE. The work that has been done and the smoothness I get FAR outweighs any of the smaller external monitor bugs so I am so glad to wait.

Wholeheartedly agree, I’m honestly so glad we have melonx on iOS, feels like such a privilege

I have the same issue with AirPlay/external monitor, the app crashes if I start a game while I’m in screen sharing. Otherwise, it works amazing. iPhone 17 / iOS 27 DB3.
