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

I've been using your emulators for years now, they're the best emulators for their respective consoles on Android, that's why about five years ago I decided to purchase all four of them. These new and improved versions are great and all but naturally they come with ads, nothing wrong with that but I purchased your emulators before to get rid of them. I feel that for us people who had purchased your apps before these new ones we shouldn't have to pay more to remove ads. Keep up the good work!

A perfectly average GBA emulator. The ads, while not intrusive while playing, are very frequent. The whole app feels a bit clunky and could benefit from a fair bit more options to change. When I first used it, I had one audio channel only in my left ear, and there wasn't any way for me to switch between mono and stereo audio. Overall, this is a perfectly serviceable emulator. It does what it needs to do, but if you have access to a PC, there are much better emulators out there.
