Cannot get folder permission to set rom folder. What's the point if you can't get permission read from a folder

Sleek and refined, but light on options for the virtual controls. An option to use a slider for paddle controls or a simple bar you can drag your finger on for the driving controller (like the paddle controller but spins infinitely) would be great. I would bump it up to five stars for those things alone.

I gave this app 5 stars only because it enables me to play the old Atari games. However, it should work with all the games, but I found that some which require paddle or keyboard controllers don't seem to work. If there is an option for this within the app, I have no idea how to access it. I hope the program developer will make it possible to play other games besides the ones that are joystick types.
