Is Folium legit?

Being the only 3DS emulator to easily get running on a phone, I firmly believe this app has a lotttt of potential. The creator is open on social media about plans for the app and it’s updated which is very important when it comes to something like this. The app is in a rough state, however I knew that before purchasing. I feel like this app will have a bright future ahead of it, but it will just take time… that’s why I spent the 5 dollars to buy it. Almost like an investment for the creator
It’s good but it keeps freezing
I gotta say I enjoy playing 3ds games, but every time it keeps freezing, especially where i’m in the middle of something and i didn’t save.
But overall, the app is pretty neat.
Not useable even for iPhone 15
I was so excited after several hours to finally get this working but unfortunately every time I get a game to work and I play it for a while and grow attached the app ends up crashing and corrupting my save file!!! It’s so annoying considering Delta has NEVER had an issue even like this and Delta is FREE. This was $5. The only reason I am not asking for a refund (yet) is in hopes this will be updated and fixed within the next two weeks because I currently feel robbed of hours of time getting the game to work only for the save files to corrupt every time. This is ruining my latest YouTube series because I thought I could trust this app to work. It would be one thing if the crashes didn’t corrupt my files but every time it crashes it kills all of my animal crossing village and progress. Very aggravating
tomodaci life needs improvements
although i did get miis working, i had another bug where a thing that i type gets counted for the next thing i typed, and my game would crash if i clicked on it again to change it, so i could not get past completeing my mii. hope you see this and update
fix
guy’s there is a way to run the game better just look up a tutorial on youtube and you’ll be able to fix it from being extremely laggy and slow.
Really Good Emulator But Not Perfect
The Emulator Is Probably The Best Emulator I’ve Gotten Just One plat Thing The Audio Lag Is Not The Best All I’m Saying Jarrod Norwell Is Fix The Audio Lag So I Can Play New Super Mario Bros 2 In V1.7
Be Grateful
Folium is I suppose not what many desired from 3ds emulation but folium itself cannot fully operate due to apples policies which causes the app to have to not play well if not at all this app is paid due to the fact that it isn’t in its best performance its only for those who can ignore it and be grateful but honestly I run this on my iphone 11 pro and with a few tweaks I might lag a bit but I can play almost any game i like there is a lot to be fixed but i hope others can be lenient with the developers trying to atleast give us this 3ds experience despite apple whining about minor security issues
Great app but need more updates and optimization
This up is awesome. I never had the chance to play Pokemon sun and now im able to. Im playing on an M2 ipad pro which should be able to handle this with not issues how ever i have frame drop on cutscenes.
Every time i try to change a settings the app crash and when I open it again I have to reimport my games again because they don’t show up on the app. Im playing with an xbox controller and want to play a full screen. When I go to renderer and try to choose the layout option and go to large screen the app crash on me. Haven’t been able to go full screen.
Was thinking about asking for a refund but Im going to give this app a chance to see what happens in the future
I wish I could give 5 stars
I feel disappointed with the fact that I paid since day 1 to download an emulator that I can’t even use. The 3DS games run horrible! No matter what settings I have it at. I was looking forward at playing the Zelda games but I can’t so I have to stick with DS but I can use other emulators for that… I really do hope folium gets better but for now it’s not doing it and I can’t ask for a refund now so I just have to stick with it.
Decent emulator, needs many fixes.
Hi, i started using folium about yesterday and I was wondering if they could fix tomodachi life, it couldve been the file or the app but whenever i open to tomodachi life it just gives me a black screen opening, to add on to my review it also doesnt let me play other games like project mirai, the only game it allows me to play currently is animal crossing: new leaf.
