+Requires AltStore or SideStore
 - Build from source or get prebuilt ipa in [the Actions tab](https://github.com/khanhduytran0/LiveContainer/actions)
 - Open LiveContainer, tap the plus icon in the upper right hand corner and select IPA files to install.
 - Choose the app you want to open in the next launch.

 - Tap the play icon, it will jump to SideStore and exit.
 - In SideStore, hold down LiveContainer and tap `Enable JIT`. If you have SideStore build supporting JIT URL scheme, it jumps back to LiveContainer with JIT enabled and the guest app is ready to use.
