What Happened to GTAV's iFruit App?

Throughout GTA V and GTA Online's history, A single app has allowed players to do some cool things like change their license plates, and play with Chop. But after 9 years of the apps use, it was suddenly discontinued, never to be seen again. So, what happened? Where did the iFruit app go? Why did it fail? and will it be making a return in GTA 6?

We can't even get Chop his happiness up anymore, that's just sad.

Gotta love how a feature of the game doesn't work anymore because this app is basically nonexistent. It's like having a game with multi-player achievements and the servers shut down years ago making such achievements basically impossible. Why do game companies do this.

[iElementGraphics]

The main reason I used it was to exploit it for a glitch that existed in online, where you could install turbos onto electric vehicles with the app, making them way faster then they should be. Electric vehicles dont have turbos since they dont have traditional engines. I dont know if anyone else remembers this but that was the coolest "feature" of the app for me lol. (Also mainly license plates other then that)

I'm only a minute in but this unlocked a core memory. 13 y/o me thought this app was so cool back in the day. Eventually did forget about it though. Didn't even know it wasn't around anymore lol

I remember getting it just to be able to change Chop’s collar color and have him do tricks😂

[benjaminsmith]

By the time I learned it existed, it was downloadable but it didn't function properly.

Fun fact: the ls customs feature caused some controversy in the speed running community. U could use it to customize your car while playing the game saving alot of time while you were busy with a slow mission such as "Surveying the score"

It was banned from speed running as it was decided it wouldn't be fair for future speed runners when the app would stop being supported. Which of course ultimately happened.

i used to have it, i mainly used it for licence plates in the game

[peysolive]

Welp i guess its only an og’s experience 😂

[LilyEmbargo]

I dunno why they didn't allow us to take care of Chop in game. I can't do it anymore which means since I bought the PC version recently I can't train Chop to learn new tricks, or have the collars.

I remember using the iFruit app to add custom license plates to my cars in GTA Online. The app always seemed to have problems updating my license plates in the game as it took a lot of time for the change to occur. I'm hoping the GTA VI companion app will have more opportunities than the GTA V companion app and the RDR II companion app. Hopefully Rockstar has learned from their mistakes on how bad and useless the apps were for their previous games and make an app for GTA VI that is interactive and interesting for their playerbase that is logged into their social club account to access the app. I hope the new GTA VI app should be useful and have less problems from previous apps that were for previous Rockstar titles.

Having the golden collar for
Chop after the iFruit app shutdown is a flex lol

[alzssioo]

funfact; you could change colour of DEFAULT wheels with ifruit

[ThatOneChick]

I thought it was neat that if you had a trained chop he would do a good job during the mission where he got "side tracked" by that other dog, before continuing sniffing out the balla. And that you could earn him different collars and get him to perform tricks. Thanks for the watch Jetro! 👍

Quite useful and fun I gotta say; the ability to customize game's parts through your phone was quite mindblowing back in the day

[Material_Monkey]

Oh yeah I remember that App. I used it back in like 2014. Probably still have that golden Chop necklace on my old ps3 save. I also had a custom license plate but also only on my old ps3 save for online. Good days haha

[Elnmsk]

Lucky I managed to get the golden chop collar before it closed

[chuckthebobr]

This is my new favourite GTA channel. Love the short documentary styled video like SalC1. Keep up the amazing work man! ❤

[elshanrahim]

This style of video editing and voice recording is way too much better man! Keep going ❤

if they make the next companion app for gta 6 online and having it where u can text a friend that is in a session from your irl phone would be very cool
