v1.4.4 What's new Now on Mac

A fan project that runs the WebAssembly build of GTA V natively on iPhone: the engine compiled to ARM64, a native Metal renderer with every shader precompiled, Story mode or free-roam Sandbox, touch controls that act as a real controller (with the game's own aim assist), gyro aiming, tilt steering and graphics presets up to near-native resolution.

Get started

Four steps to Los Santos

No paid Apple account, no computer for the build. About 30 minutes, mostly waiting.

  1. 1

    Put your game files on your iPhone

    Copy your game folder (the one with data/ and b/ inside) onto the iPhone, so it sits in the Files app under On My iPhone.

  2. 2

    Get the app: build it or use a prebuilt IPA

    Build it yourself from your own game files with 5★ Port Builder (free, about 25 minutes), or use a prebuilt IPA from the Telegram group.

  3. 3

    Install it

    Open SideStore or AltStore, go to My Apps, tap + and pick GTA5Port.ipa.

  4. 4

    Give the app your game files and play

    Easiest: open the app once, then in the Files app long-press your game folder, tap Move, and choose On My iPhone › GTA V Port.
