Ratings and reviews

Runs like a charm, but a lot of the ads will fully block your screen and on the Google pixel you can't press the X because it's off screen. It's... absolutely infuriating. If you don't save often you'll lose a LOT of progress to an ad popping up, which usually happens after you've switched to a different app to reply to a text or switch videos. This forces you to close the app to get rid of the ad. Make the ads just a bit smaller so pixel owners can hit the X without risking losing progress.

One of the best out there. Great haptic feedback, very little lag, speed up options up to 16x! There is literally nothing more an emulator needs. The ads aren't as bad as people say, mostly just small banner ads at the bottom and a skippable ad everytime you switch to another app. In all my time using this, it's only crashed twice, both times I was using over x4 speed (let's be honest, all emulators struggle with that). And the quick and auto save are extremely helpful. All in all a solid app.

I have used this emulator ALOT, and for a free emulator, it is FABULOUS! Firstly, the ads are not so intrusive and annoying! That makes the game actually playable and puts the game in the highest quality possible! Second, the fact that you can speed gameplay is very helpful! When I play Pokèmon, I end up getting in LOTS of battles which is annoying. However thanks to the speed up feature I can play faster! This is just amazing!
