This is a great Super Nintendo emulator the only issue I had was trying to figure out my on-screen inputs you can only move the buttons around from the main menu before the game is open and when I turn my phone sideways some of the buttons overlapped, and I almost uninstalled the app because I couldn't figure out how to move the buttons around until I found it in the main menu, so I'm just putting this out here in case anyone else had the same problem cuz nothing that it's the best app

The best free SNES Emulator. No ads popping up constantly, it has never crashed on me, it has a crazy amount of downloadable games from Google. I give the SNES EX+ a 5-star review and would recommend it to anyone who likes these retro games. I grew up playing these games and this emulator brings back sooo many childhood memories of me and my 5 older sisters playing and fighting over whose turn it is to play!

The emulator itself works fine for gameplay, but it's wiping the save data every time I close the app

Wouldn't play my roms whether they were unzipped or not. I suspect I needed to do something technical with the settings. They worked just fine in with a different app AND I didn't need to unzip the file. 2 stars for fairness.

I feel like the touch controls is very boring that I hate color black buttons. Some of the emulators made by this same devs is reusing a same control design. Geez at least try to make a controls muck colorful I remember that 1.5.55 had mod touch controls color.

Can't open any files. The app defaults to the apps' data folder which Android doesn't allow users access to. The app also won't allow you to change the directory either. The app is essentially useless if you can't load games.
