## What is REmu?

REmu is a clean, focused retro library for files you already own.

Import your own ROMs from the Files app, organize them in a tidy library, and play them with smooth Metal-accelerated rendering, on-screen touch controls, or any MFi-compatible gamepad. Built for landscape, designed to feel modern.

WHAT'S INSIDE
 • A polished library that auto-detects the system from each file you import
 • Cover art pulled from the file when available, or matched against an open-source thumbnail database
 • Save states from the in-game menu — pause, save, resume any time
 • One built-in original mini-game (Glowchase) so the app is fun out of the box
 • Full MFi controller support including DualSense and Xbox Wireless

WHAT'S NOT INSIDE
 • No game files. REmu does not ship, distribute, or download commercial games.
 • No BIOS files. Provide your own where required.
 • No ads, no in-app purchases, no tracking, no accounts.

PRIVACY
REmu stores everything on your device. Nothing is uploaded. See the in-app Terms and Privacy Policy for full details.
