Play PSP games on your Android device, at high definition with extra features! PPSSPP is the best, original and only PSP emulator for Android. It runs a lot of games, but depending on the power of your device all may not run at full speed. Buy this Gold version to support development. There is also a free version. No games are included with this download. Dump your own real PSP games and turn them into .ISO or .CSO files, or simply play free homebrew games, which are available online. Put those in /PSP/GAME on your SD card / USB storage. See http://www.ppsspp.org for more information.

    Love this emulator. It does so much already. But I'd love to see a couple features still: touch control layout - ability to move buttons outside of bounds/screen. You can already workaround this by resize + move to edge + resize, why not make it a feature? Also, ability to copy control layout from one game to another would also be amazing. I got the perfect setup for wipeout pulse and I wanna use the same one for pure. Thanks!

    I've used PPSSPP for about three months, and I've been so impressed, I decided to buy this Gold version to support them. The onscreen controls are a large learning curve, but it is so, so worth adjusting to. This can be solved by used a controller anyway. Excellent graphics too - you can easily upscale to double the original PSP resolution. FPS hovers around 30-60 most of the time - comfortably playable. If the developers read this: thank you, and Merry Christmas!

    It's One of the best Emulator ever created. Keeps me busy and reminds me of the Good old days. But I have a little, only but this one problem..after I finished playing a match and I want to proceed to the menu it will hang. Especially important matches like rival teams and cup finals, even champions league final. Most times I have to skip that particular match in other to continue playing having simulated results. I always have a fear after finishing each match. Especially PES2018

    Bought it to support the devs since 2021. With the addition of Retro Achievements I'm finding new ways on playing my games. Can I just suggest adding a reset game option. While playing in Challenge mode save states are disabled so sometimes I have to close and reopen the game if load or quit function is not available while in the middle of the game. If you guys can add it it would be a huge help. Thanks

    EDIT: STILL the best! The best emulator available for any system. PPSSPP is the most robust, organized, and efficient console emulator, and I have them all. It runs on 98 percent of phones. If you have a mid range phone or above, you can easily go 2 or 4 times resolution and use upscale image options too. Often a game can look like a PS3 title, when using these features. auto-loads metadata for titles including artwork. No bios files required. Buy the GOLD. Developers have earned your money.

    I use the 8bit-do controller and haven't had many problems reconfiguring controls. My device ain't best and it works well, but I just recently had an issue where the speed/processing of the game was really good, and something I did (on my phone perhaps) tanked the performance. I couldn't pin it to any one thing so I'm redownloading but getting gold instead to support the dev. Truly a great emulator that worked flawlessly despite my phone's performance, now I need to fine tune the settings.

    A great implementation with incredible performance. I'm playing on a Galaxy Fold 2 and it's a better experience than any handheld. The user experience is well thought-out and not clunky. Very intuitive with lots of control. My favourite feature is bing able to speed up play during the boring menu and story sections. I had to remap the key on my Glap to do so, as it was too easy to hit. PPSSPP GOLD , along with a joypad, is the best mobile gaming experience I've had. Well done.

    Two bugs: 1. Switching back to app often makes it crash. The whole phone freezes and requires a hard restart. This happens about twice a day. 2. Switching back to app also adds a black bar on the left which covers part of the screen. Toggling immersive mode on and off resolves the issue. Otherwise this is an excellent app.

    Quick Review - Performance: (S) Very smooth - Graphics: (S) Just like the original (Fantastic) - Settings: (S) Lots of options. You can adjust the app based on your preferences and your device. - Game compatibility: (A+) Most of the games I've played so far works smoothly on my device. - Controller support and setup: (S) Controllers are automatically set up. All of the controllers I've tried so far works splendidly. Overall: (S). This particular emulator is very well made. Highly recommended.

    Thank you so much! This psp emulation experience was amazing! It brought back so many old memories from my PSP days. I still have my original PSP-1000 and I remember all of its quirks. The UMD sluggish spinning disk, the poor battery life, and the dimly lit screen and more. Amazing! This app even fixes the magic cast stuttering issue in FFT! And just for that alone I decided to buy Gold. My only wish was that Gold provide extra features over the free version. Thank you.

    Incredibly good, but at the moment I'm livid because I've been using this app for years on all sorts of devices and I noticed they added a option to move your main PPSSPP folder on the android at some point, wanted to move it to the top layer of my phone so I could add/edit files on the fly. The app gave me an option to move all the files over, and I selected it! It did not move any files. Instead, it created new empty folders, and deleted all of my data. All of it. Years of game data just gone
