Wish there was a way to manually choose where the memory card is stored. Until then, this app gets 3 stars. I would love to use my memory card files from my desktop emulator, but nope. Please let us choose the directory for the memory card. With something like OneDrive or DropBox, this would allow for cloud saves. That would be perfect for Dolphin! Android can be frustrating with allowing apps to access storage on your device, so I get not having it yet. But someday!

Generally pretty darn optimal and one of the best emulators on the market in terms of performance. However it is ABSURD that there's no way to set up analog triggers for touch screen controls unless you download third party software based off of Dolphin. Also having a weird issue where if I start a game with my bluetooth headphones, the audio is pitched down. Fixed by starting a game without headphones, then putting it on after.

Exceptionally great, very impressive. my only problem is the sheer lack of options that many other emulators have, such as a fast forward button. you can still change speed but not only is it obnoxious to navigate the menus, but there's not even a quick default button to reset the speed to 100%, making it an even more annoying hassle to go back to the normal speed.
