Needs controller support

Great app. Needs controller support

😳 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.

Hey

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 🤡

Controller support

I would like to see backbone support for the games

Controller access needed

Please do this. I love this.

Game control support needed

Please add game control support so I can use my backbone controller!!! Please!!

Good (Edited Regarding Other User Concerns)

Finally the PPSSPP is back on iOS without the need of jailbreaking your device (if that’s even still a thing). Wanted to show my support by buying the gold edition considering I had a few bucks to spend.

Edited:
The app runs great on the iPhone 12 Mini/iPhone 15, so anything in between should run phenomenal at 30-60fps depending on your settings. So if you’re concerned if it runs on your device or not, it should. Others have also claimed texture issues (tho I am not too sure, it seems to be more of a game issue than emulator issue), this is likely due to something going wrong when extracting the file from the UMD ROM, or it likely just doesn’t work. I say this only because SOCOM 1/2 works great but SOCOM Tactical Strike seems to be the only SOCOM that has graphical issues, nothing to do with the emulator. If you are still concerned about whether or not on how the emulator runs, download the free one before you get the paid one, this version is only to support development.

Please also take note that the free one only gets the latest update due to the fact that Apple declines every update the developer tries to push out for the paid one. It’s not that he forgot about us, it’s just apples review system.

PPSSPP

Can we please get more updates and plug ins I absolutely love this app money well spent people say it’s the same as the free version but trust me there’s a difference. The only thing I dislike about it overall is that I want better controller settings-Layout and more cheats-Plugins ex. Come on developers how is it that the free version gets an update before the paid version. But with all that being said I absolutely love this app 10/10 keep up the good work!:)

Dear developers please read my review

Why there’s no set UI background option in the ppsspp system settings??. In my pc there is an Set UI background option but just not on my iPhone 13

Awesome! Just…

This emulator is just about perfect, it just needs some support for the phone controllers, specifically the backbone in my case. 10/10 for anyone who had a psp in the past and want some good nostalgia

Not supported by backbone app

Still needs backbone app support

Request controller support

Cool games and emus

It is the same as

It is the same as the free version but if you like to support the developers just buy it

A Must Have

This Is The Best PSP Emulator!!

I don’t like it

I can’t get the game to stop lagging when I pay for it I should be able to play smoothly why is it jump lagging and slow

Great way to support the developer

There is no difference between the gold and “normal” free version. The big thing here is supporting the developer. I have purchased this on Android as well. I have followed the update drama online. For what ever reason the Apple AppStore is being weird about updates from this version and not the free one 🤷🏻‍♂️

buggy for a high end phone..

i have an iphone 13 pro max and its super buggy and slow i only paid for this one because delta doesnt support psp but delta works wayyyy better and supports console games and it doesn't lag at all! sure this is decent because it allows psp games to be emulated but does it do it well??!?! nah!

Great app but

It’s say to ask for ppssp to make my backbone to be compatible
