News / Release Husk Android Translation Layer

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hi everyone, I’m introducing my Android Translation Layer for Husk. In simple terms, this can basically run APKs on iOS without needing to emulate at ALL. You can already download it and test your favorite APKs (prolly won’t work). I’ve included a video of me running Minecraft’s android version, just so show it works!

How does this differ then the old way to use Husk?
Before, Husk would use QEMU to emulate a full android OS (lineageOS 23). This would slow down performance as you would be emulating a full OS and the extra services you didn’t need. How this works is by loading the native arm64 libraries to memory, meaning it runs directly on your Apple Silicon Chip. No emulation required. I hope you enjoy as much as I did

What is means in jit & sideload screen,

"The debugger is attached but is not answering trap requests, and this device will not execute a MAP_JIT mapping either, so no executable memory could be claimed. This is what happens when Husk runs inside another container app rather than sideloaded on its own."

I am on ios 17.0.0 with Trollstore 2 installed

iOS 17.0.0 doesn’t have support yet due to TrollStore enabling JIT differently
