High quality indeed! I recommend having a folder inside of your downloads folder for your games for easy scanning. Games look good, run smoothly, and control great. Ads are out of the way, not annoying and only in the menu. Probably the best free emulator for mobile devices! However, there is an error when scanning a directory (folder) that has only cropped up recently. I can't fully see the error message as it's too long.

The rewind feature is limited to only 10s?? What about the people who want to experiment? Also, the fast forward button turns off when exiting a game, just disable it already. Oh and don't get me started on the controls, too janky, you can't even press more than two buttons at a time. What do you mean by, "remote controller"? Can't you just plug one in and skip all that junk? All in all, this emulator is pretty good at emulating, but these bugs are too annoying. p.s. the font is too unreadable

Everything is okay with this, no lag, no trouble, and no ads during games. But one problem is that when I save or a load a slot twice it removes my rom and i have to do a search every time to get the game back, and it's not only saving and loading, it's multiple types of this problem, like leaving the app, and sometimes flipping the screen on accident.
