What are your thoughts on the current emulation scene on iOS? Since Apple does not allow emus to be published on the app store, you will have to go through the tough process of either jailbreaking or sideloading with tools such as AltStore.

At the moment I know that Provenance is a frontend for multiple emulators similar to Retroarch, which is really useful considering with a normal apple account you can only side load 3 apps, including AltStore itself. Though I would still love to know other emus available for iOS

If you don’t feel like going through AltStore for Delta, provenance, or etc, a fun alternative is Eclipse Emu. You can download it as a web app!

I just tried it and it works great! The interface looks almost the same as iOS. The supported systems are quite retro though (sad that there is no DS support atm). I already have Provenance installed so personally I don’t find to be using it often, but so awesome being a web app + useable offline without sideloading
