This is the best emulator I have used so far. All you need to do is to download the game file and then it does the rest for you. At first I was unsure on whether it was safe or not but after scanning it with multiple antiviruses and doing some background checks i can assure you that this is legit. It is so very convenient. You save the game at any point you want. Also for all those complaining about adds just turn off your wifi and data and you won't be interuoted at all.

I personally like this emulator a lot, it has everything you could wish for and more, especially considering I didn't have any problems with saves, which isn't that common. I have only one problem: the cheat insertion system. Sometimes the game will not recognize AR cheat codes or other formats, despite being listed in the "cheat type" tooltip, and will be hellbent in not recognizing it. That said, considered the quality of the emulator, it's something that you can very much let slide.

Works well enough, but don't expect to keep a save on any long playthroughs. At multiple times in the last few months, with no rhyme, reason, or warning, the library just appeared empty and the app wouldn't recognize any GBC or GBA files. I still have my save states, but the app just no longer recognizes the games. Usually a quick re-install "fixes" things, but not this time. I ought to give this app 1 star cuz it just doesn't work, but I'll settle for 2 since it sometimes actually works right
