😳 Amazing! Supported!

Had to buy this after being knocked out of my chair when I experienced the free version. I can play my library on my iOS? Chef’s Kiss 🧑‍🍳 💫

I hope my saved bindings from my free version transfers onto here, I wonder what the difference between the versions are? No one has explained. I guess I’ll test and report back.

El emulador es una belleza pero como es posible amigo que siendo esta la versión de paga para donar al proyecto sea una versión más baja que la gratis y tenga menos opciones 🤡
