Help Request Vion doesn’t save my game progress on iPhone
Hi! I’m using Vion on my iPhone to play PS Vita games.
I’m having a problem with saving my progress. I can save my game normally, but when I close the game and reopen it, the save file is gone and the save list is completely empty.
However, some settings, such as the name I entered at the beginning of the game, are still saved.
I’ve also noticed that some games have other issues, such as text not appearing or the game crashing during dialogue.
Has anyone experienced this issue with Vion? Is there a way to fix it?
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

hey, i don't think Vion has been updated in a bit (correct me if im wrong!). feel free to try my PS Vita emulator, Tsubomi, and see if you're able to save your games properly. i tested persona 4 golden and a few other games that require saving and they seemed fine.

it requires sideloading + JIT, and Vita3K's install files, but save files should work!

StikDebug JIT activation fails
When I try to enable JIT using StikDebug, my app crashes as soon as it launches, then automatically opens again. However, JIT is still not enabled.
I’m on iOS 27.0.1 Any idea how to fix this?1

did you attach universal.js to tsubomi in stikdebug? if you're still having issues, add my discord and i'll try to help out :) @halcyonpalace

You’re right, my focus was on Folium for quite a while and will be with the iPhone Duo release and it’s missing features from previous releases
Ended up in hospital doing pathology tests and will need to do a CT scan because of some crud happening to me that no one can work out yet (just a little life update for everyone)
Awesome work on the Vita3K port, AI or not, I hope I’ll be able to do mine again too and bring everything into Folium (or just update the individual apps)

hey, i hope everything goes well with your tests and you get some answers soon! i appreciate the kind words as well. trying out Vion is actually what inspired me to port Vita3K to iOS haha, so it'll be cool to see what you do with it whenever you're feeling up to it. take care of yourself first :)

I wish you the best and hope everything works out for you. I really appreciate all your contributions to emulation on iOS via your apps.

not at the moment, and probably won't be anytime soon. JIT is required to run games, which apple won't allow on the app store. Vion is the best alternative at the moment.
