Hello,

I have this smartphone "Samsung Galaxy J8", well, it has a processor 64-bits and 4gb RAM, BUT, dolphin emulator isn't avaliable on play store, and even if a download from the site doesn't work, always show a message "the app was not installed". Any of you can help me with that? I think it's because this cellphone is from 2018 and as it's not a "top of the line", is not famous. I'd like to play wii on my phone

Although the CPU from your phone is 64-bit, it's probably running a 32 bit version of Android (which is pretty common on low and mid range devices) and there's nothing you can do. If you are lucky, there *might* be a custom ROM with 64-bit support available for your phone but I don't think it's worth it, as even if you could install and run Dolphin the performance would be pretty bad as the Snapdragon 450 from your J8 is severely underpowered for GC/Wii emulation (keep in mind that even current flagships with high end Snapdragon 855 SoC still struggles with Dolphin depending of the game)...

emiya_shirou, to find out, you can use the data that Antutu benchmark collects (without even running a benchmark test): https://www.howtogeek.com/253461/how-to-...t-android/

As for me, I have the same question but I know that my phone is running 64-bit Android. The phone is a OnePlus 6 and it won't install latest dev builds of Dolphin, but does install from the Play Store AND installs the MMJ branch (I'd rather use the latest Dolphin builds though for consistency)
