Ratings and reviews

I love the interface and all the options, but I have a couple requests. First, which I'm sure you get a lot, is link cable emulation (over network and NFC would be cool if it's even possible to do it that way). The second suggestion I'd have is to integrate Chromecast (or Google Cast if you'd prefer), so I wouldn't have to cast my whole screen to the TV. Other than that, it's great!

This has been a great app which I've been using for many years. However, I tried to play a game this evening on my Pixel 6a and no games are recognised (despite me authorizing access and the files being present). UPDATE: I found the answer in a review for the John GBA app - the game files must now be put in a subfolder called game. Working again! Still a fantastic app.

In-game saves have never worked properly and now it can't read my game files even though I've directed it to the correct folder - which contains the correct format files - multiple times now. I used to love this emulator and now it's just not working like it used to
