### 1/5 — I aint paying pro for something thats free on other apps

*2026-08-26, version 2.0.1*

The pro is a scam no emulator should have ads or restrict which files can be inserted

### 4/5 — Works great

*2026-08-26, version 2.0.1*

Super simple and easy to use once you figure out how to download the games. I’m impressed by how fluidly it works so I’m not too worried about lagging or having too many technical issues while playing

### 1/5 — Terrible ads out of nowhere update

*2026-08-26, version 2.0.1*

Added ads that pop up while playing and you have 3 seconds to stop it before this messes up your game.. it’s just ridiculous when we all know it should be before or after. Time for another app

### 5/5 — Great!

*2026-08-25, version 2.0.1*

This emulator for ps1 games are amazing… run my preferred games quite nicely  and even works with controllers… congrats!

### 5/5 — Absolutely Worth It

*2026-08-24, version 2.0.1*

5 bucks and your phone is a PlayStation. For best results, Bluetooth a ps4 or 5 controller to your phone and screen mirror to a TV. I’m having WAY too much fun with this.

### 5/5 — Good stuff
