Really great emulator lumeroid I can put all the files that contains my game and play although i don't know why some games does not load or work but overall 5 stars

I easily have over 100h on gba games using Lemuria. I've had no glitches, crashes or hiccups with the app. Definitely THE emulator for android! (free and no ads is a godsend and too rare on mobile)

Wiped my save back nearly 24 hours for no reason despite using both the built-in save state and multiple in-game saves. Glitch occurs at an easily repeatable rate; definitely go with a different emulator.

What have you done to the controls? Not only do they look distracting, but now the joystick has a square mapping?? Please at least bring the option to return everything to normal (N64) UPD. So I've been playing for a month now with this new emulator (NES, N64), and my opinion hasn't changed. The new touch controls are A MASSIVE DOWNGRADE. Please bring back previous controls, those controls were absolutely the best compared with other emulators for those systems.

Unfortunately very glitchy with e.g. Animal Crossing New Leaf. Randomly freezes when entering loading zones, losing all progress, cause there's no save states for 3ds games. It lags a bit when starting up compiling shaders. UI lacks proper customizability. Cannot access save directory, nor add cheats. No amiibo support seemingly, haven't figured out multiplayer yet. If only they fixed the emulation issues and add save states that'd crank up the rating. But as it stands, it's way too unstable...

For the life of me, I couldn't get this app to play NES roms!? I already have several downloaded NES roms in a game file that I gave Lemuria permission to access; it scanned the folder stating "No Games!?" I'm looking at the games right now via a file manager app and all roms are unzipped and ready to go! However, Lemuria doesn't recognize them!? I was told that many emulators on the Google Play Store are outdated and will NOT work with updated version of Android. I'm running Android 13.
