Ratings and reviews

To have an Amiga in your pocket all day everyday is a dream come true. After finally figuring out how to get this to work it's just purely a beautiful sight. It runs very well and is highly configurable and very flexible. The reason for not a 5 are the following: 1. I can't get two joypads to work with this emulator. I have bought a USB-C dock where I can connect 2 USB joypads bit I only have options for 1 joystick. 2. The online help is very poor. For someone not technical it's difficult.

Gamepad button remapping and on-screen keyboard are both still totally broken as already described by other users. It's a crying shame, because those two bugs render this otherwise excellent emulator totally unusable. Developer appears to have gone MIA/AWOL (no updates for over 18 months), so I have little hope of these awful bugs ever getting fixed.

It works but some options are still clumsy. main problem are save slots (states) which do not work at all on my phone with android 9.0 pie. controls and switch between mouse and joystick on port 1 & 2, wich are necessary to run and play a game need a shortcut. virtual joystick and controls also, are laggy and need improvment to be playable. thnx anyway for great nostalgia you brought to us.
