Guides for installing and running Clone Hero on mobile devices.

Installing Clone Hero
Apple restricts sideloading apps outside the App Store. The steps below use free, community-supported tools to work around these limitations, with no PC or jailbreak required.
Want the latest PTB build without sideloading? Starting from v1.1.0.5977-PTB, Clone Hero has an official TestFlight beta. Join the beta on TestFlight →
1
Install SideStore, a PC-free sideloading tool. Follow its built-in setup guide to get everything configured before continuing.
2
Because Apple limits how many sideloaded apps can be active at once, install LiveContainer. It lets you run additional IPA files inside a single sideloaded slot, making it much easier to manage Clone Hero and future installs.
3
Download the latest Clone Hero IPA, then install it through LiveContainer rather than SideStore directly to preserve your sideloading slots for other apps.
4
Launch Clone Hero and create a profile. This ensures all required game data folders are generated on first run.
5
Close Clone Hero, reopen LiveContainer, then tap and hold Clone Hero and select Open Data Folder.
6
Note the folder name shown. This is your Clone Hero data directory where all downloaded songs, custom backgrounds, highways, and profiles belong.
Downloading Songs
This process requires a PC. Blip: File Transfer is recommended for wirelessly moving files from your PC to your iPhone.
1
Install Blip: File Transfer on both your iPhone and PC. Sign into the same account on both devices.
2
Download your desired song(s) on your PC.
3
Right-click the song's .zip file and select Send with Blip, then select your iPhone from the list.
4
On your iPhone, the file will be auto-accepted. Tap it and select Open with Files. Then tap and hold the file and press Move.
5
Navigate to LiveContainer → Data → Application → [your Clone Hero folder] (from step 6 of Installing Clone Hero) → Documents → Songs, then tap Move to confirm.
6
In the Songs folder, tap the zipped file to unzip it, then delete the original .zip.
7
Close the Files app, reopen Clone Hero, and rescan your library. Your new song should appear.
Downloading Custom Colors, Backgrounds & Highways
This process is nearly identical to downloading songs. A PC and Blip: File Transfer are recommended.
1
Install Blip: File Transfer on both your iPhone and PC, signed into the same account.
2
Download the desired custom content on your PC. If it isn't already, compress it into a .zip file.
3
Right-click the .zip and select Send with Blip, then select your iPhone.
4
On your iPhone, tap the received file and select Open with Files. Tap and hold it and press Move.
5
Navigate to LiveContainer → Data → Application → [your Clone Hero folder] → Documents → Custom, then into the appropriate subfolder for your content type (Colors, Backgrounds, or Highways). Tap Move to confirm.
6
Tap the zipped file to unzip it, then delete the original .zip.

Installing Clone Hero
There are three ways to install Clone Hero on Windows. Pick whichever suits you best.
Option 1 — via CHSuite
1
Install the latest version of CHSuite and navigate to CHManager.
2
Press Check and choose either Release or PTB. Find your desired version and press Download and Install.
3
Once installed, open Clone Hero once and close it to make sure it generates all of the required files.
Option 2 — via Clone Hero Launcher
1
Download and install the Clone Hero Launcher.
2
Go to Game downloads and choose either Release or PTB. Find your desired version and press Download.

4
Once installed, open Clone Hero once and close it to make sure it generates all of the required files.
Downloading Songs
There are numerous ways to download songs for Clone Hero on Windows. CHSuite only downloads .sng files, which requires Clone Hero v1.1 or later.

Option 2 — via Bridge
1
