System Requirements

iOS Version

Needs iOS 15.0 or newer. Older articles mention iOS 13, but that’s outdated. Current version won’t show up unless you’re on iOS 15+. Check your version: Settings → General → About → Software Version

iPhone Models

Works smoothly on:

iPhone 11 and newer (perfect)
iPhone XR (runs well)
iPhone 8 (works on lower settings)

Basically anything with an A12 chip handles it fine. Older than iPhone 8 might struggle.

iPad Compatibility

Any iPad with A12 chip or newer. iPad Pro models run it at higher settings without issues. Regular iPad works too, just keep graphics on medium. The bigger screen makes backing into loading docks way easier. Mirrors actually help instead of being tiny.

Mac Compatibility (M1/M2)

If you’ve got an Apple Silicon Mac:

macOS 12.0 or newer
M1, M2, M3 chips

Intel Macs don’t work. It installs like a regular iOS app, no emulator needed.

Storage Space

Download: 1.2 GB, After install: around 1.5 GB total. Keep 3-5 GB free so iOS doesn’t slow down. If your storage is almost full, you’ll notice lag.

Performance on iPhone

Does It Run Smooth?

Depends on your device and settings.

iPhone 12 or newer: Runs great on medium settings. 30-60 FPS, no problems.
iPhone XR to 11: Works fine if you lower shadows. Still smooth after adjusting.
iPhone 8 or older: Playable on low settings. Drop shadows and traffic density.

Real Testing

I tested on an iPhone 12 Pro. Medium settings, 40-50 FPS during city driving. Highway runs at 55-60 FPS. Battery dropped about 20% in 30 minutes of gameplay. Phone got warm after 20 minutes but not burning hot. Normal for 3D games. On an older iPhone XR, I had to reduce shadows and traffic. After that, stable 35-45 FPS.

Battery Drain

Expect 15-25% battery per 30 minutes. Depends on:

Brightness level
Graphics settings
Phone case (thick cases trap heat)

For long sessions:

Lower brightness
Remove thick case
Don’t charge while playing (increases heat)

Best Settings for Smooth Play

If you see stuttering or lag:

Lower shadows first: Shadows eat the most performance. Medium to low makes a huge difference in FPS.
Reduce traffic density: Fewer AI vehicles = smoother performance, especially in cities.
Close background apps: Instagram, Safari, YouTube running in background slows things down.
Keep storage free: iOS slows when storage is nearly full. Keep 3-5 GB empty.
No jailbreak needed. Just smart in-game adjustments.

Controller Support

Xbox & PlayStation Controllers

Works via Bluetooth. Pair through Settings → Bluetooth, then the game detects it automatically. I tested an Xbox Series controller — connected instantly, no setup needed.

MFi Controllers

Apple-certified controllers work natively. Same Bluetooth pairing process.

Steering Wheels

Basic Bluetooth wheels might work through button mapping, but don’t expect force feedback. For proper wheel support, you’d need a PC simulator. Controllers make highway driving more comfortable than touch. Reversing is way easier with analog sticks.

Mod & IPA Versions

You’ll see “unlimited money” IPA files online. Here’s the reality:

Installing unsigned IPA files needs:

Jailbreak, OR
Third-party tools like AltStore, Sideloadly

Both carry risks:

Apple ID restrictions possible
Certificate revocation
Security vulnerabilities

I tested a popular modified IPA — VirusTotal flagged warnings. Official App Store version? Clean.Honest advice: Stick with the official App Store version. The risk isn’t worth the shortcut.

Cloud Save & Progress Sync

Game supports cloud save through login. Log in with the same account on multiple devices (iPhone, iPad, Mac) and progress syncs.

Guest accounts don’t sync. You need an actual game account.

If sync fails:

Check you’re on the same account
Confirm internet connection
Log out and back in

Usually fixes it.

Common Problems & Fixes

Game Not Showing in App Store

Update to iOS 15.0 or newer. That’s why it’s hidden.

App Crashes on Launch

Restart iPhone. Force close app and reopen. If it keeps crashing, delete and reinstall.

Low FPS / Lag

Lower shadows. Reduce traffic density. Close background apps. Free up storage.

Installation Fails

Need 3-5 GB free space. Check your storage. Delete some apps or photos, then try again.

Freezing After Update

Force quit app. Reopen. Still freezing? Reinstall from App Store.

Battery Drains Fast

Lower brightness. Remove phone case to prevent overheating. Don’t charge while playing.
