A few
quick answers.

All questions
Does the app include games?
No. GBA Emulator does not include, download or link to commercial games. You import your own compatible game files with the Add Games button.
Can I play GBC games on a GBA emulator?
In this app, yes. GBC and GB game files are supported directly alongside GBA, so you do not need a separate app for each system. See GB vs GBC vs GBA for how the systems differ.
Is GBA Emulator only for Android?
Yes, for now. The app is built for Android, so there are no PC, iOS or Mac versions.
Can I use a controller?
Yes. The app supports controller input, and you can also play with on-screen touch controls. More on the controls page.
How do saves work?
Quick Save keeps one checkpoint you can load or replace. Your latest session is saved automatically when you leave a game, so you can continue later. Import Save and Export Save handle the game's own save file. Full details: save, import & export.
