A List of Useful PSP Homebrew Apps
Many PSP owners are still wondering what homebrew for the PSP is. PSP Homebrew is not a game but applications created by skillful coders and hackers for the PSP. To make you understand it better, I made a short list of the top PSP homebrew applications that I often use. These are not arranged in any manner whatsoever.
- Bookr 0.7.1- This is a PDF reader for the PSP. I found this application very useful. Copy your PDFs to anywhere on your memory stick then open it via Bookr and then BAM! You can read PDF files anywhere. This runs on all custom OE firmwares and all M33 firmwares that has 1.50 kernel installed. Place the app inside the GAME150 folder. Download it here.
- IRShell 3.7 - This is one of the best homebrew apps ever for the PSP. Here’s what you can do with it - You can play your backed up games on your PC via USB connection, Output your PSP screen on the monitor of your computer and a whole lot more. Yes it’s compatible with 3.71 M33. Download it here.
- PiMPStreamer - This application is a realtime video/audio streamer from your PC to your PSP. it can play almost any video format. It requires WiFi connection. It works on 3.52 M33 and all custom firmwares that has 1.50 kernel support. Get it here.
- Wifi Sniffer - I use this handy application all the time especially when I’m looking for hotspots. It shows a list of local wifi access points. TheWiFi detection works real time so it is really handy. Get it here.
- AFKIM - An instant messenger client. I use this when I want to chat with my friends online even when I’m lying down on bed. Requires WiFi connection and 1.50 kernel. Get it here.
- PSP Comic - This is a very handy comic reader. If you love comics like I do, you gotta have this one. Download it.
These are just a few but the ones I listed are the ones I frequently use. If you’ve got any suggestions on more useful PSP homebrew applications you can leave a comment below.

Yes. You can install 1.5 kernel addom for psp slim. But you must use Time Machine by Dark_aleX.

@deathspade2000@yahoo.com: You need the 1.50 Kernel add-on to make it work. BookR is a nice pdf reader.
