John GBA is an emulator specifically designed for Android 4.1 and above. It is important to note that this app requires you to have your own game files in order to function properly. We recommend trying out the free version, John GBA Lite, before considering a purchase. The good news is that if you do decide to upgrade to John GBA, it can seamlessly transfer all of your data from John GBA Lite.

It is worth mentioning that John GBA will not receive future updates as its successor, John GBAC, has been launched. You can find the download link for John GBAC here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.johnemulators.johngbac.
