RetroArch For Android Full setup guide in 2024

[@JOELwindows7]

It's not appearing on Android 13 because libretro have not updated it for the API level Google asked, so Google intentionally removed it for Android 13. Try older Android or prevent update. Or better, F-Droid it, coz Google broke what's not broken.

[@whitevamp1051]

it's available in the Samsung store if you have a Samsung phone.

[@Inshaner]

I download the apk directly from there website

[@Sydleywydley]

Tells me standard Retroarch is made for older versions of android and is not supported by my device, is Plus okay to use instead?

[@Mad-Lad-Chad]

Yes. Plus is just a version made primarily for 64 bit android devices iirc, and all modern devices are. If you have a new enough version of Android to run Plus, you absolutely should. It tends to perform better and has more cores.

[@Emuland69]

Just fyi guys, this KZbinr here seems to be using stuff from other KZbinrs like Mr Sujano. The script here compared to Mr Sujano’s video on the same topic is almost identical. What a fucking joke.

[@UrCasualGamer]

People like you make me laugh. like software is supposed to change from person to person. No, it stays the same, and if someone's explaining it properly, it should sound similar 😂 and I won't comment on Mr Sujano because I respect my fellow youtubers. But I will say my guide was up first before I had to re-upload. I'm guessing you're not a long time subscriber. otherwise, you would know my history on emulation and youtube.

The galaxy store has it.

[@TonmoyChowdhury-zz9tx]

Where do u download the games from tho

[@NickTaylor-Phantom-Works2]

I use 6 different emulators currently, and over a dozen at various times, but man I found this app difficult! (Hence watching your video!)

[@XPGaming01]

Retroarch is not in the Play Store anymore, or at least I can not find it.

[@yaelbradlyquitlongcanceran1898]

it's in play store, I just download it

Thanks man this is the most simple and easy to follow Android Retroarch emulator installation walkthrough.

[@MikhaelHausgeist]

People search those for troubleshooting... There are none... I'm pissed. 🤬

[@pokethejoke3329]

Why can’t find my games after installing a core?

[@ertailara]

Hi, great content and huge help. Super dumb question since i have the same controller, but how the heck do you open the Retroarch menu from Inside the Game? The retroarchlogo dissapers when i have the Gamesir connected, so im just closing the app, but feels kinda unintuive

[@demetrius2292]

[@faresist6510]

Where i can download games?

[@whoopsyeah672]

Use Google and search the game you want followed by "rom download"

[@sambrisbane9822]

Straith to the point, very clear instructions tnx a lot you did not waste a single word without need i give you sub

[@jcags]

More like "straight to the point, all stuff and no fluff" lmao

[@cosmicbrownnie1380]

Retroarch doesn't come up on Google Play for me.

[@simonbelmont6739]

It's on the galaxy store

[@yorelyoung6407]

You can't adjust the digital overlay buttons or resize them for some reason. Does anyone have a solution?

[@justinstrong9595]

Yes you can. Access the overlay menu from in game.

[@yorelyoung6407]

@@justinstrong9595 WHAT OVERLAY MENU?!! If there was an overlay menu, I WOULD HAVE FOUND IT ALREADY!! This is completely different from remapping the buttons or using different button styles to make the button layout look different.

[@JulianJimenez-z2b]

I cnat get retro arch on the app store I have an s21 plus

[@coolboy123e3]

You can just hard to find i found it by downloading a app named dig which is a emulator setting it up and launching a game tells you to get retro arch

[@joshjohnson2753]

Probably referring to Mr.Sujano, your script was nearly word for word what his was when he made it several years ago. A reddit post pointed it out today and looks pretty interesting lol

[@UrCasualGamer]

@joshjohnson2753 o, so these aren't his words. I guess that's where he's getting it from. Anyways I haven't even seen his video. I will check it out, but yea, that does sound interesting.

Everything from NES to Dreamcast, you won't get ps2 and GameCube emulation with retroarch on Android. Best to use standalones for those.

Where do I download the roms with box art?

We need a video of adding games as packs all at once as well as bios or whatever, just like turning it like a handheld
