Complaints
Alright, what’s the meaning of this? Somehow all of my files have been removed or deleted in Linking Boy? What’s going on?
Having really bad slowing issue
Whenever I close the app and reopen it, or sometimes randomly, the game’s speed drops to about 50%. The only way I’ve been able to fix this is by closing the app and restarting my ROM.
Response from developer
Thanks for your support! We'll bring even more features to both platforms with future updates.
Update ruined the linking capabilities
I don’t know which update ruined the linking but it sucks now. Me and my brother used to be able to link through our phone networks but now it only allows WiFi linking, and we need the ip address. It seems more unnecessarily difficult to link now.
Response from developer
Linkboy currently only supports linking via local Wi-Fi network.
Best ios Gameboy Emulator
With the updates over the past few months, this is my emulator of choice for gba,gbc,gb. Enjoying the sgb support.

Thanks for your support! We'll keep improving the app.
Living the old days
FINALLY a GBA emulator with controllers similar to my boy emulator this is the exact emulator that I’ve been looking for! 10/10
Brilliant app
Very good app, since update increases speed on gameplay seems to be lost which is annoying, also unable to link unless exactly same rom which is annoying for trading for example
This is the best GBA emulator for iOS that allows you to import your favorite games and export save
This is the best GBA emulator for iOS that allows you to import your favorite games and export save data to other devices to continue playing. I really like it.
Big update finally came through!
Used Linking Boy on android a lot, and when I moved over to apple, the IOS version was very sup-par (missing most of the features the android version has). But since the latest update, the IOS version now has all the features it was lacking that android version has! Only thing the emulator is missing for me would be cloud saving for data, but still the best GBA/GBC emulator on IOS.

Good but one problem
The emulator is absolutely amazing. The emulation works flawlessly. The linking is amazing, but with one problem. Everywhere I look it says that the linking supports up to four players. My dad and I can play great but when we try 3 players with my brother, it always fails when we try to connect a third device.

3 or 4p link is temporarily removed to be compatible with the Android version. We'll bring it back in a future update. Thanks for your patience!
Great app
Came here after I found out that this is the successor for My boy app on Android devices finally got to relive the old days after I transferred my save progress from android to IOS also this apps runs the games really fast too great job can’t wait to see the future updates!
Link works
I was able to trade and battle my brother wirelessly through our cell phone networks. Amazing emulator I recommend it to all my friends and family.
Update review: I wish you could link the Pmonster games over different games of the same series LG/FR, R/S/E. Also mute on silent doesn’t always work, I like to listen to personal music or audio books while I play; could be a bug with Bluetooth head sets as it worked on speaker before.

Good but,
Need version 3.5 here on iOS, don’t understand why it’s not out yet and it is for android.
Pokémon
Wish yall would update to trade between ruby sapphire emerald Pokémon to trade with leaf green and fire red Pokémon want to complete Pokédex without cheating can’t do that without trading between these platforms would rate higher if that happens
Missing features?
I’ve used Linking Boy premium on Android and now IOS, and I have to say, VERY disappointed. The android version has 2 options that the IOS version doesn’t (that I’ve noticed so far, anyway) - a color filter that makes the games less brightly saturated and therefore give the intended color look, and a feature that allows you to toggle fast forward instead of hold it. What the heck linking not team? I’ve supported you TWICE now by buying premium, and my reward for playing on IOS is… LESS features? 😡
Update: Still no access to cheats even though the android version has them!

Great emulator, coming from Android retro devices to iOS.
This emulator is great, delta has more options but you get trading with this app. Coming from the Android version of this app I am impressed. This developer has done a fantastic job regardless.

My Emulator of choice, but flawed.
I picked this emulator because, unlike Delta, the in game clocks automatically sync with the system after switching back to the app rather than just resuming the clock where it was where you left it. A key feature for me is definitely the button remapping, which I love. The Lcd3X video filter is amazing too. The audio is also soooo much better than Delta’s. I haven’t tried the titular linking function yet so I can’t speak on that. My main complaints are that it is slower than Delta and the audio desyncs. The framerate and game speed will drop and not run as smoothly as other emulators and the screen will tear (into a weird 6 parts), but is very much still playable, at least in my opinion. I cannot say the same about the audio desync. When you leave the app for a bit and come back to it, the audio will be delayed by about half a second. If at least the audio issue is fixed, this would be the gba emulator I’d recommend to everyone.
