This used to be the best emulator out there, now, after the last update, all the touch controls are broken. As many others have stated, I have to touch way off of where the button actually is for it to register. I'm also on a Moto G Power. The emulation works, but until the buttons are fixed it doesn't deserve more than 2 stars. Things are basically unplayable, and I paid for this app, so that kinda makes me mad.

I want to like it. There's a lot of great features and quality of life. My biggest issue is when I bluetooth a controller it just randomly cuts out frequently. I'll be playing and suddenly lose control over my character. If it happened less often I wouldn't be as bothered by this. But it happens enough to the point I don't want to continue playing. Controller and phone work fine in other apps.

DS emulators are so finicky, so I tried a bunch. This one has the best sound, least stutter in the audio, overall seemed good, but the calibration for the touch screen AND the buttons is off, and you can't adjust it. In portrait, the touch screen mostly works, when the rogue button inputs aren't fighting for control - I even moved the buttons away from the touch screen, still got interruptions. Landscape, buttons are king, but they are still off. Touch screen unusable. Overall, no precision
