*FIXED* Reinstall the app if you're having problems. Store a game in a separate folder under main phone storage folder labeled as "Games." Rescan that folder until rom shows up. Start game and save it, Then it will auto populate your johnemulators with subfile paths game, GBA, GBC. Once auto populates, you can move files into the johnemulators folder. Should appear after scanning that folder. All future downloads now should work in the johnemulators folder. Enable no ads if previously bought.

Been using this app for a few years now and never had an issue until today...suddenly I tried to open the app and load a save but the game just crashes and closes. When I try to re-open, it says the game has a bug and try Uninstaller then reinstall, which I did, and it loaded a bit further before crashing. Now it says to wait for an update from the publisher. Plz help! I love playing this game and reliving my childhood pastimes! Edit:after not playing for a couple days I tried it and it works!
