Could you build this?
Partial An iOS HTTP proxy app is fairly straightforward to build, but managing network extension routing over Personal Hotspot to bridge a PS5 involves non-trivial iOS networking and OS-level tethering quirks.
What it would actually take: This requires building an iOS app utilizing NetworkExtension (specifically NEPacketTunnelProvider or local HTTP proxy server like GCDWebServer/CocoaAsyncSocket) running in the background. The challenge is configuring the network interface binding so the proxy is discoverable and routable across the iOS Personal Hotspot bridge interface (bridge100) to respond to PS5 traffic. Developers need strong understanding of iOS sandboxing, NetworkExtension entitlements, and cellular-to-Wi-Fi tethering routing behavior.
