What ClassicBoy Pro is

ClassicBoy Pro combines emulator cores with a game library for playing classic games on Android devices. It is designed for Android phones, tablets, and TVs, and the listed platforms also include Windows. A ROM scanner can inspect selected files or directories, identify games, and add them to the library. Users can browse, locate, or favorite games in a gallery and explore game information in a database. Listed emulator cores include Dolphin, Citra, PPSSPP, FlyCast, PCSX-ReARMed/SwanStation, and Mupen64Plus, among others. Controls include touchscreen buttons, external gamepads, customizable layouts, gestures, and accelerometer input mapping. Gameplay tools include adjustable speed, save and load states, data import and export, and cheat code support. The app does not include ROMs, and users must have the right to each ROM they play. Its listing says it collects no data and shares none with third parties. Stated permissions cover game-file access, controller vibration, audio reverb settings, and Bluetooth connections for wireless controllers. ClassicBoy Pro has a free plan listed as free; Google Play also notes in-app purchases, without displaying their prices.
