finally open-sourced this since it got way more traction than I expected and so many of you were asking for it you can now set it up on your own iPhone with NO MAC and NO PAID DEVELOPER SUBSCRIPTION* ‼️ check out the repo or read more below ⬇️

first off, no game assets are included in this repo! I cannot share these as R* can then take it down instantly. you'll need your own copy of the same files the web GTA5 port used, which are out there but I of-course can't link to. please don't dm/email me asking for it, I will not share them check out the video below on how to install it and again, read the README in the repo to get a full tutorial on how to set it up for yourself

*some caveats: ** with a free Apple ID (no paid dev account) the app gets less RAM, so on older phones like my iPhone 13 Pro Max it’s a lot laggier. a paid dev account unlocks the full memory and it runs way smoother ** free Apple ID installs expire every 7 days and need a refresh (SideStore can do it on the phone) ** first launch downloads ~4 GB to the phone and the rest of the game streams from your computer as you play (and is cached), so keep it on and connected while playing ** no Mac needed: GitHub Actions builds the app for you, about 15 min, fits easily in the free plan

what’s new vs the web version: 🎮 runs natively on iPhone, no browser: the game compiled to ARM64 with Metal graphics 🕹️ new touch controls that act like a real controller, so the game’s own aim assist works. layouts switch automatically for on foot, cars, bikes, helis and planes 📱 optional gyro aiming + tilt steering ⚙️ graphics presets that adapt to your phone, resolution scale, 60 FPS option, full-screen picture with no stretching ⚡ heavily optimized: way smoother and fewer stutters, plus a game-file cache so it loads faster over time 🎧 Bluetooth controllers work too hope you enjoy!!

Man just drop the ipa file and stop this build your own app. None of us know how to do that shi

still can't link to an IPA, but check out this, should be a lot easier now. still need to bring your own assets.

Thank you! I’ll update when I get it running

dude if this gets on the app store add a fuck ton of ads with the 1nm close button and random sound effects and youre golden

Pushin 60fps on 18pm. Great work!

@grok diffrence between and this Performance (idc about the tailscale remote storage thing

NEW: made a web app so you can log in with your GitHub account and the IPA is automatically created for you. read more:

my opus just added minecraft to it

the amount of people asking “no mac though” like the whole point is that you build it yourself and suddenly nobody knows what a github is

Hey will it affect my iPhone security? I do want to play GTA 5 but I also want to keep my phone secure

nope, no developer mode needed (which affects security mode the most usually), just classic sideloading :)

it's a lot better now:

Can I store game files on my phone?

in v1.1 yes, but needs initial download from your connected computer, after that it works directly from phone

where is the android version

@bot @grok comment installer

Really cool stuff dude

Is there an iPad version in the works?

already works natively! check out a demo here:

Bro, you're working on an iOS GTA V, I'm working an Android GTA IV for Mali chips (mid tier androids).. keep up the good work man :) when this is done, I'll work a GTA IV IOS port for you and every other iOS user

Hey! Can I run this on an iPad? Nice work, congratulations!!

thank you sm!! and yes! works out of the box, although control layout may be a bit goofy, in the next version v1.2.2 you’ll be able to customize the control layouts also :) I should be able to release it by tonight or tomorrow

Thanks!!! Trying it rn on my iPad A16

👀

@PapiStrok mira we

Android?

Is there an ipa? I only need an ipa that run the wasm version

@grok Does the installation require a computer?

Does it work with enhanced version files ?

Your iPhone can skip hiring a Mac as its installation chaperone.

@grok where are the game files of this ?

@grok when for Android

Can someone just add an ipa file it's fucking confusing if ur not a dev

@grok fr?

I need an ipa for this

Why are we getting gta 5 iOS before gta 4 I’ve been waiting since playing San Andreas on my iPad as a kid

GTA 5 source code leaked a while back so it’s a lot easier to do GTA 4 hasn’t leaked even once except a super early pre development build, so it requires like 20x the work sadly i’d love this also but it’s an insane amount of work even with AI tbh

Where can I get the needeed files (game.wasm and manifest. json)

Ipa?

Total size is 21gb?
