    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    In an email to The Verge, developer Riley Testut said the app is an unauthorized clone of GBA4iOS, the open-source emulator he created for iOS over a decade ago (and recently resurrected for the Vision Pro).

    A Mastodon user found that iGBA does not reference the license, which may violate its terms.

    I’d suggest reading developer Mattia La Spina’s Github-hosted privacy policy before diving in.

    I did not attempt to find or play any Commodore 64 games with Emu64 XL and deleted the app.

    That control is breaking down now, with the EU’s Digital Markets Act making the company permit other app stores and sideloading on the iPhone.

    Whatever the case, emulators being allowed feels like a win; it’s just a shame the first apps to take advantage of that aren’t quite up to snuff.
