About this app

Daijishō is a retro launcher that let you manage your retro games libraries. Daijishō cares about integrated experience, expansibility, aesthetic and pragmatical usabilities let you focus on games itself. It will be updated continuously in the future based on users responds and my own retro gaming experience in my free time.

This app uses the Android Accessibility API exclusively to enable an optional in-app screen-lock feature. This lets users lock their device without using physical buttons, helping prevent hardware wear. The API is not used for data collection, monitoring user activity, or accessing personal content.

Beware it does not come with emulators.

Ratings and reviews

The scraper isn't the best but you can work with it. It's free and the only game that I don't have scraped is entirely Japanese. I won't lie a few titles took a couple weeks to get squared away. Doesn't look terrible on a tv either, but certainly not as good as on mobile. I have the circuit theme installed. Would love more widgets. RetroAchievements works perfectly.

Great, just needs some work. The scraper is not very accurate as it will get the wrong region art, art from a different game, or just no box art at all sometimes. I also wish there was a way to sort platforms by manufacturer or release year without editing the short name because that hurts the clean look. Otherwise I love it. It's free and fairly easy to use

Great frontend that makes my life way easier, also easy to use, if you struggle a bit you can look up some videos and get the hang of it quickly. The scraper for box arts is nice and if you're playing a rom hack or something like that you can select images from your own files so that it fits in with the rest of your titles in your collection. So if you wanna turn your device into an emulation machine this is the way to go, at least for me. Oh yeah and it's completely free and has no ads
