no USB access

I don't know if it was my phone or it was RetroArch but it froze when I changed some settings because the game is lagging. I want to try the on screen translation but man the main problem here is the virtual gamepad. Holy Munch guys, It's 2025 why can't I customize the gamepad myself?

nice

is this becoming a joke? options don't save, configs dissappear, changing resolution makes overlay dissappear, cores dont show even when "experimental cores" on play! doesn't work and the lpsr2 core doesn't even appear when downloaded from the zip 😂 forget this and use the standalones instead of wasting your time having to fix it instead of being able to actually play your games on it

the most obtuse emulator app i have had the misfortune of using. awful file explorer that isn't a file explorer at all, and the app files cannot be accessed without jailbreaking your phone. download if you want to spend 2 hours reading 4year old reddit posts.

good

Good app but lags in a lot of the cores and also lags whenever the wifi is on.

shitpost

too complicated to understand. uninstalled

update the emulator.

Man. I am having the time of my life. 5/5 enjoyment. However, I do want to be able to program controller buttons the way you can program on-screen buttons for various combinations. For example, holding a button will switch the left analog to the right one for more natural "right analog" feel. Anyway, just purchase, it works. 10/10.

Does the job and does it pretty well. Most cores work near perfectly, and connecting and setting up a Bluetooth controller was a breeze. There's a fair (a lot, really) amount of customization and learning to really make this shine on Android as opposed to PC, but it works exceptionally well as an all-in-one emulator once properly setup. (Note: I can't speak for the image/music browsing--never tried those.)
