How do I install emulators

[LeeroyGoldmane]

I want to emulate games on my iPhone how do I install emulators so i can play old games?

you go to the app store and find the emulator for the game you want
I would instead recommend a cheap retro handheld, depending on what you want to emulate, they can cost as little as $50

yeah but if the game doesnt need the power, then having physical buttons is a massive benefit.
What consoles are you trying to emulate, what games? there are emulators for most older consoles

Apple doesn't allow them so you have to use a janky workaround. https://altstore.io/ is one example (never used it myself I don't have an iPhone).

You can also find websites where you can just play them online (and I'm not talking about piracy, there are browser-based emulators that you still have to load your own ROMs).

Android phones allow you to run any programs on your phone

I know this is an old thread, but there is an emulator on iPhone. It's in the app store & released shortly after this thread in April: Delta
