Available for compatible Android devices, BlueStacks 5 and iPhone — now with a non-jailbreak SideStore install option
Build and manage your own Mother Base from the original Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes Companion App. The preservation project now supports Android, BlueStacks and iOS, with separate preservation servers, restored cassette delivery and the original native Mother Base systems brought back into playable form.
Multiple Preservation Platforms
Play on compatible Android hardware, BlueStacks 5 or iOS. iPhone users can install through SideStore without a jailbreak, while the TrollStore/jailbreak route remains available. The current iOS package retains the modern-device compatibility proven on iPhone 16 and now matches Android / BlueStacks for level-based console bonus character progression.
Original Mother Base Gameplay
Recruit soldiers, construct facilities, manage resources, develop your force and deploy units using the app's original native systems.
Simple Callsign Registration
Create a preservation Mother Base identity without the retired console login and account-linking services that originally blocked access.
Console Bonus Characters
19 bonus personnel once tied to console-linked progress can now be earned naturally through Mother Base level progression on Android, BlueStacks and iOS.
Restored Audio & Cassettes
Recovered cassette audio is served in the format expected by each platform, including the restored iOS cassette playback path.
Online Save Backups
Android and BlueStacks synchronize the original Mother Base micro-save with the preservation server for recovery and administration.
Restore & Device Migration
Android and BlueStacks players can use their private Restore Code to reconnect a new installation to an existing synchronized Mother Base.
Local iPhone Mother Base
The iOS preservation build keeps Mother Base gameplay and progression locally on the iPhone while using the iOS server for restored network-dependent features.
SideStore + TrollStore Installation
Install iOS 1.0.6 through SideStore on a non-jailbroken iPhone, or keep using the direct IPA with TrollStore / a compatible jailbreak setup. Modern-device installation compatibility and modern-iPhone safe-area tuning are included.
Combined Public Rankings
Android and iOS Mother Bases can appear together on one public leaderboard, with a platform tag showing where each player is active.
Retired Features Handled Cleanly
Dead iDROID and DATA PORTAL paths are redirected to clear preservation notices instead of leaving players trapped in obsolete service flows.
Long-Term Fan Preservation
No subscriptions, premium accounts or paid unlocks. The goal is to preserve the discontinued companion experience and document it for the future.
