Love the UI and how easy this is to navigate. Fingers crossed for some themes update in the future.
★★★★☆Steven O'Reilly· Dec 16, 2025
At its core this is a gba app that rivals the likes of pizza boy and my boy emulations, the FPS and resolution is really good and deserves all the praise I could give it. I am really enjoying my time on this app as there is no add interruptions and the background and buttons are super personalized:) The only thing I would love to see improve with this emulator would be the chance to edit the button layout and move around where the controls go, but even then this emulator is an amazing app!

Amazing emulator with simple and clean ui. My only complaint is how you can't choose the screen orientation to be the same as your system orientation.
★☆☆☆☆Andrew Marvin· Mar 11, 2026
Files have to be in. gba format, other emulators use the zip format, so you would have to unzip your collection used from other emulators. So didn't bother testing .....shame

Always fails to export my saves, so I can't play cross-platform, very disappointed
★☆☆☆☆Infinity· Jun 4, 2026
Go GBA couldn't read my game folder nor individual games files. Stated it didn't exist? I'm running Android 13 and noticed older emulators cannot read my game folder or individual files!? I'm also using file manager + to create, name and move files and folders around maybe that has something to do with it too? Regardless, this emulator didn't work for me.

"Hardcore mode approved for RetroAchievements", and then there's not an option to turn Hardcore mode on. And it's not on by default, because in testing, the achievements earned were Soft core.

No save states unless you pay MONTHLY, hard pass for me. Seems like a cheap ripoff from mGBA, not official. The monthly subscription for premium is what sucks the most here. that's an absolute red flag for ANY emulator. Premium should be a one-time payment if anything. So all in all: this ripoff just wants your money, that's it. There are dozens of better emulators.
