It's really good its works fine and does all I need to do

The most powerful emulator around. It has a learning curve but once you get the hang of how Retroarch does things you'll prefer it. My favorite part is that it is a collection of smaller emulators in a bigger package.

It's good on PC not on Android devices it crashes constantly and cores don't work as expected it's pretty poorly optimized too on lower end devices I recommend download this on your PC or nodded consoles like the switch or the Wii ect. Overall I like the app but not on the android.

I can't bind the controls to my physical keyboard. I only ever get an error. I have to rebind everything each time I open the app. Needlessly clunky and difficult to use the app, poor UI, and poor ability to actually bind custom controls.

RetroArch on Android has some of the worst settings management I’ve ever dealt with on an emulator. The app constantly fails to save UI changes and configuration settings properly, especially on newer Samsung devices. You spend 20 minutes customizing menus, drivers, overlays, and themes just for everything to randomly reset after restarting the app. The interface is extremely confusing for normal users. Important settings are buried under endless menus with poor explanations

Having pretty bad bugs using this on the latest version of Android on a Fold 5. Can't even save my config files...
★☆☆☆☆Primal Convoy· Nov 10, 2024
EXTREMELY unintuitive menu design makes this difficult even for power users and those familiar with emulators. 1-star review until fixed (and it WILL be uploaded again EVERY time the devs try to remove it). No excuses from devs below accepted.

Until I see a what the plus in the title is representing my own stable plus nightly conversion is the only plus I need
