It's a great emulator with some pretty neat features. But it needs support for shaders. Also I'm experiencing some audio issues with Link's Awakening DX, it seems like after every few beats it skips a beat.

You can control the layout and size of buttons and screen which is very nice. For the best experience turn off your wi-fi because the adds are quite annoying. Haven't noticed any lag or glitches while using it to play Pokemon Yellow so I do recommend.

Was great and the adds were minimal, but now every 30 seconds to 2 minutes, it opens up a website link to Omaha Steaks website. I can't even play a game on it anymore. On top of that, it when I come back to the game it runs another video ad before I can play. Not worth it anymore.

Overall pretty good, but I recently noticed how much audio latency there is, and now that I hear it, I can't unhear it, and so everything feels unplayable now. If there was improved audio latency / more options for it, this would be a nearly perfect phone emulator

This is the only emulator I recommend. I've been using this and the GBA emulator for quite some time now and I've never run into any issues. The ads are easily avoided and NEVER interrupt gameplay. Truly fantastic. It reminds me of holding the actual Gameboy in my hands.

It does everything a gameboy emulator should do. Perhaps a little too much for a "lite" version. If anything, a strange thing this emulator does is restrict features in airplane mode...? Not even when there isn't any internet, it's just in airplane mode. I have no clue as to why. Dev please explain.

I really wouldn't recommend this - soon after I downloaded it and gave it all it's required permissions and things, I started getting pop up ads that were blocked before, even after I uninstalled this. I can't find the guilty program, which I presume to be a sort of virus, either, making it difficult to remove.

The A and B buttons are in an awkward position which makes it impossible to play mario games where they must be pressed simultaneously. Please make the buttons resizable and enable them to be relocated on the screen. Maybe have 1 button for AB at the same time. Otherwise, it works.

Love it, except I can't play my downloaded games offline anymore. It lags so much that the frame rate is 1 to 3 fps offline and I downloaded this to be able to play games WITHOUT AN INTERNET CONNECTION. It used to play fine offline, but now it doesn't. It also has disruptive ads that pop up and if you have your volume all the way up it bLASTS you with audio instead of automatically muting the app.

It's literally like a real gameboy, especially the part where it could remember the real time for games like Pokemon crystal, and on top of that it doesn't take up much battery and there are multiple save slots(even when exiting a rom they will ask to save). Gonna buy the full version because the devs more than deserve to get paid for this, even though i have everything i need from the free version

good but it forces to make a directory in the root. I wanna make and access the exclusive directory for this app only.

Fun to play, but the D-pad could be smaller because I have small hands, and the large size makes it difficult for me to control.

Lost all saves after crash...no history nothing in save files. Disappointed, worked extremely well but no saves no point.

Fantastic emulator for being free. Fully stable, fast, multiple save states, directory can be chosen by user, and 2x speed are all free. You can not ask for more in an emulator, especially a free one! John GBA Lite is just as good if you need a GBA emulator. The ads are few, short, and usually just after opening the app menus, which isn't bad, and not disruptive like some emulators.

One of the very best emulators for GameBoy Color, you can have tons of games , hook up controller and play. Easy to use and find your ROMs, some apps make it so difficult. There should be a one press button that finds them. I might spend the $3 to get it permanent, it takes up very little data or space on phone. Great app, I'm going to get Paid version, this app takes up very little space and all the games too, I have around 60 games and it doesn't drain MB of data, it plays regular GB games to

Great emulator for most part. Plays both Gameboy And Color games, ads arent intrusive to gameplay and helps John with well deserved income or just buy to remove and Still help him out, easy to use interface and options with a scan button that searches the whole phone for roms. A Quicksave/load button that really comes in handy and save states. Only issue is the movement buttons, while a controllers move buttons are connected, this has a gap in the middle and no options to fix. Great otherwise!

The emulator is the best gameboy emulator I seen, it fully Colors each object and character, it's easy to use, you can put the speed by 4x or higher making it faster to play it, it also saves data. The main reason I put at 4 stars is because the save data don't work, it either its dosent work or if you dont play it for a day or just skip it, you'll lose all your data. Can you please fox it, I dont want to restart the game over 6 times. It's getting stupid.
