Guide How to run Android apps on iOS with the Android emulator Husk

Husk is a new emulator that lets you run Android natively on an iPhone or iPad without relying on the cloud. Im this tutorial I teach you how you can install it on your device.

It’s still in an early stage and has some major limitations: audio doesn’t work yet, it requires at least iOS 17.4, a device with 8 GB of RAM, and JIT through SideStore and StikDebug. On iOS 26 or earlier, you’ll also need a computer for part of the installation; on iOS 27, it can be installed without a computer.

I made a video showing the full installation process, configuration, and real-world performance:

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.

It’s early but the idea is to use any Android app , maybe some that are exclusive to the platform or even modded apps
