What's New in eNES

2.11.0

October 11, 2026

What's new in 2.11: • Stability: eNES could close when you left a game after the app had been interrupted (Control Center, a call, a notification). Fixed. • Controllers: pads that iOS doesn't treat as standard gamepads (some wired and USB-C ones) now work, and the on-screen buttons hide while a controller is connected (you can turn this off in Settings). • Reset the console from inside the game. • No purchase screen when you first open the app, and Pro keeps working without a connection. • Manage or cancel your subscription right from Settings. • The app is now available in 33 languages.

Response from developer

Hi, I’m sorry to hear you’re having a bad experience. Your review is a bit unclear, so I’m not sure what went wrong. The app does not remove or “steal” ROMs, and I’d like to help figure out what happened. Please contact support and let us know: * What device and iOS version you’re using. * What happened when you imported your ROM. * Any error messages or screenshots, if possible. We’ll do our best to investigate and help you get everything working correctly. Thank you.

Охринеть не встать !
