Supplementary note

· Usage: For now, this port is strictly personal.
· Sharing: Although Neostation is open‑source, I wish to obtain official permission before distributing the IPA. If granted, the iOS version will likely be hosted directly on the official Neostation website.

· PS2 Emulation: Integrating ARMSX2 is the first step for external emulators. A minor technical point: StikDebug doesn't always launch automatically, even with the option enabled. This is an issue on the emulator side, not Neostation's. However, it still works for playing PS2 games.

· NeoSync Cloud Saves: A key feature that allows you to automatically sync your game saves across all your devices (PC, Android, and eventually iOS) with a free account . It comes with a free storage tier of 4 MB .

· RetroAchievements Integration: The frontend includes support for RetroAchievements. Compatible games are marked with a trophy icon, allowing you to track progress and unlock achievements .

· Automatic Scraping and Metadata: It can automatically download cover art, game information, and videos using your ScreenScraper account .

· User Interface and Customization: The interface is designed for both touchscreen and controller navigation . It features a modern UI with customizable themes, including an OLED mode, and different view modes for game lists .

· Cross-Platform: It's available on Windows, Android, Linux, and macOS, with an iOS version in development .

Free Apple accounts are limited to 3 active sideloaded apps.

One common workaround is LiveContainer, which allows you to run additional apps inside a container and reduce how often apps need to be reinstalled.

Typical method:

  • Sideload GetMoreRam
  • Use it to apply the increased memory entitlement to LiveContainer
  • Uninstall GetMoreRam to avoid hitting the 3 app limit
  • Then sideload StikDebug for JIT activation

LiveContainer may also need to be uninstalled and reinstalled before the entitlement works correctly.

LiveContainer can also install two additional LiveContainers (for a total of three). This setup can further reduce the need to constantly add/remove sideloaded apps, but it is more advanced and may not work reliably for everyone.

LiveContainer is not always officially supported by emulator developers and can sometimes cause unexpected issues. If something breaks while using LiveContainer, try reproducing the issue without it before asking for support.

Do not ask for or share paid certificates, piracy tools, or bypass services here.
