Overview
vphone-cli creates and runs a virtual iPhone on an Apple Silicon Mac. It builds on Apple's Virtualization.framework and PCC research VM infrastructure. A self-contained VPhone.bundle handles firmware preparation, restore and VM control, and a launchpad app installs the bundle and guides you through creating and running a VM. Version 2.x applies the full firmware patch set with no selectable variants.
