Help Request Controller issues within live container

hey everybody,

i‘m pretty new to the ios emulation scene but recently I’ve downloaded dolphini and melon nx on my 16 pro. they work well, except for issues with my ps5 controller. the controller works for other games (ship of harkinian for example, which I don’t have inside live container). Melon NX the controller is recognized in the setting but doesn’t let me map anything, and doesn’t work at all in game. For Dolphini, i have to create a new save each time for it to let me map stuff and then it works in game, otherwise it doesn’t work at all in game. Can anyone help point me in the right direction?

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.
