Ratings and reviews

the cheatopedia made it somewhat convenient to use over other gba emulators. but the hack to make it work with 6.0+ isn't very good. the dev should make it a plugin instead of a folder. also this app lacks the link features that can be found in "myboy". like linking over Bluetooth and between 2 games on the same device. at the very least the dev should add joybus support so it can be used as a gba controler for dolpin to play games like FF: crystal Chronicles.

Been experiencing some audio issues with the emulator as of late running on an S22+ when it used to sound fine a couple updates ago, hope this gets fixed soon because this emulator has been a long time favorite of mine.

I, like many others, was very disappointed when cheats were suddenly disabled as I'd used them just days prior to it happening. It didn't sour my experience with the app though, it was still a top notch emulator. I just fired it up today for the first time in a few months to find the creator had found a workaround to get our beloved cheats back. If you're one to quickly complain I'd urge you to look through these reviews or in the app itself to activate the cheatopedia.
