First things first. This is a great app. I can finally play all my old childhood games again, the memories are lit! But as of the latest update, is suddenly asks for notification access? Why would it need to send me notifications? Still five stars though, but notification access needs to be removed.

This is a really good app—I'm genuinely impressed by the clean UI and smooth interface. It runs multiple GBA and GB games flawlessly, making it one of my favorite emulators. However, I do have one suggestion: RetroAchievements Support: It would be amazing if you could add RetroAchievements integration in a future update. It adds a whole new layer of fun and replayability for many users. Other than that, I have no complaints. Keep up the great work, and I look forward to future updates!

This was my go-to emulator for a long time, to the point where I believed removing ads was worth it. Unfortunately, it has become outdated for newer Pokemon Emerald rom hacks, which often don't support this emulator anymore. I only use it for GBC games now, with another app being used for GBA. However, if you are planning to play unmodded games, I'm sure your experience will be more positive.

Suddenly Ads! I've used this for android for ages, and it's always worked one way: you tab out or open another app or widget overlay, enter the main menus-- watch an ad. Short, usually almost immediately skippable. All of a sudden today I can't walk twenty spaces in Leaf Green without an ad... I closed an ad, and another ad opened I'd maybe consider buying the ad free experience but not now that it's being leveraged out of me, if that is the case. Update this, change it, whatever, 5 Stars.

I was liking the emulator a lot. Unfortunately it ends up being too smart for its own good. When you try to leave the app it asks whether you want to save the game, which should be a good thing right? The problem is that it saves to the same file as the native save. If you answer not to save instead of reverting to the last time you saved inside the game it reverts to the last time you started the emulator!!! And if you had never saved before with the popup it will literally delete the save???
