It's probably the best emulator I've ever played on. It's kept simple and you can download and play games very easily. However, I have one issue with it. On the touchscreen, the controlls work perfectly fine, but if you try to connect your controller with the emulator, you notice that your button inputs are delayed. So this means a no-go for people who like to play with a controller.

great emulator but only one issue: when i save my progress at one point playing pokemon red and go forward and make other save points along the way, it takes me back to 5 saves earlier so i lose all that progress and get stock at that point of the story. got me mad.

John GBA Lite is an AMAZING GBA emulator, and it's the LITE VERSION. IMAGUNE what the full version is like! No ads, works with external controllers or touchscreen, and plays games insanely well, even on budget phones like the Galaxy A51!
