The app is great. It runs everything I throw at it with no issues at all. However I have cloud sync turned off as I have had some corruption with other apps in the past and don't necessarily trust it. Even though sync is turned off multiple times a day I get a request to connect to the Drive of every account on my phone. If I have it turned off why am I still getting requests?
Definitely one of my favorite phone emulators of all time, the only thing is as soon as I went from the free version to the paid version all of my screenshots decided to be .JPEG and I have no way to fix it to be .PNG again. 😬 and yes I tried searching around the menus but I might have missed it. Otherwise that I usually don't have any issues connecting between two different devices and playing games. If any help on guidance on where to find that picture change setting that would be wonderful.
Recent update broke it. Can't access save files anymore due to them being on the root of device storage. Absolutely useless now. Obviously these files with be on the root storage, it's the only storage on any modern android device. Myboy itself is on the root, and it considers it's subfolder of saves on the root as well. For a paid app, unacceptable.
No longer works, which is especially bad because this version cost money to use. I paid for it, and now I can't use it anymore, it's ridiculous. Fix it or give us our money back. Edit: the MyBoy folder doesn't include the game files themselves, they need to be moved into the folder manually, figure I'd help whoever might read this since nobody else said how to fix it. This still needs to be fixed in some way by the developers, the fact it needs to be done at all is ridiculous.
Almost perfect! great, well featured emulator that runs well on low-spec devices. Only two small complaints; there doesn't seem to be a way to *remove* library folders, and there's no option to automatically mute the game while using fast-forward. Still well worth the price, but I would love to see these features implemented in the future.
The emulator is good, but IT WILL ASK FOR PERMISSION TO ACCESS YOUR EMAIL ACCOUNTS CONSTANTLY, no matter how many times you deny it. Many people may not think twice before pressing allow. I can't think of any legitimate reason why an emulation app would need access to your email. It is VERY suspicious, potential phishing or identity theft. Just be careful, DO NOT allow this permission. One star until I hear an explanation from the developer about it and they fix it.
MyBoy has not logged the many times I have saved in-game since the update on May 3. When I imported a save file for another game, all of my save files within their folder were imported and loaded at earlier save points since the last time I had played them. I lost 30 hours in Pokémon Ruby. 💔 I want to enjoy this emulator, but the issues that have occurred since its initial update are making it hard to do. I am afraid to continue using it. Can this please be fixed?
Worked well. Now that you have to go through root storage... idk, I made a different folder, uploaded the files, and... they don't work. Won't load, don't know how to pull them out... Goes from one of THE BEST mobile emulators to an absolute scam (by all appearances, anyway, I might be screwing something up, but still). Save your money, folks, at least until it gets fixed.
Myboy has been the emulator Ive used for GBA games for years. But recently, there is an issue with save data. Games run great, and save just fine, but if I wanted to pull the save data or upload save data, it's impossible now. I don't know if there is a way to fix that or not. I know pizza boy emulator has the ability to use save data from any location and also can export save data. Hoping that comes to MyBoy
I've used this emulator for awhile now, and love it. Recently though I've switched to a Sony Xperia X, and it keeps crashing on certain games. Mostly having problems with Pokemon Fire Red, and Emerald. Otherwise a very solid emulator in terms of speed, and ease of use. Worth the $5 spent, but would love to see the crashing issues fixed.
