Cant upload games by directory. States "unfortunately software not installed" this is a recent issue. Had this emulator for years, and it was the best. Now I can recommend it. If the problem gets fixed it would be a 5 star

No way to access save files. I need to get a new phone soon and can't find anyway to back up my saves. Frustrated that my 50-hour Emerald Imperium save with 3 shines is being held hostage. Will not be using this emulator next time unless resolved

it's a great app.... tell your roms a bin file, and it doesn't display the roms name and instead gives a random number string and msf for the name
