How to install John GBA APK on Android phone or tablet?
Download John GBA APK file from ApkClean, then follow these steps:
Update Phone Settings
Go to your phone Settings page
Tap Security or Applications (varies with device)
Check the Unknown Sources box
Confirm with OK
Go to Downloads
Open Downloads on your device by going to My Files or Files
Tap the APK file you downloaded (com.johnemulators.johngba-vv4.11-ApkClean.apk)
Tap Install when prompted, the APK file you downloaded will be installed on your device.
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading). As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

5 ★Bravo. Great emulator. No lag or skipping. Bought it because the lite version was awesome but it had Ads of course.
5 ★Does great for select games. I consider all classic pokemon even the remastered and had things added are amazing. Give it a shot for some well needed nostalgia. 😇
5 ★The app just broke on my Razer Phone 2. Zoomed inn on the lower left part of screen. Been amazing up until now. Expecting to be back to using John's shortly.
4 ★The app is pretty good, and I do not have any problem, talking about gameplay, but even with the paid version, some adds still appearing in my cellphone, even out of the app, and it's a king of boring, and it anoys me because now, when I try to use whatsapp or youtube, for example, these adds start to appear, I would like to receive a feedback, 'cause I don't wanna stop using this app
4 ★pretty good app but even though I like it, I have two complaints that has me going back to the My boy emulator, when I play games on my S9+, it runs well but when my fingers leave the buttons on the screen, they instantly stop working, My Boy has a slight pull that lets my fingers glide on the screen and still use some directions. as for the other buttons, My boy lets me use combo buttons unlike John GBA, though if there is something Im missing, sorry. But unless this is fixed, My Boy for me.
5 ★I enjoy the nostalgia of being able to play all of my favorite childhood games. Its easy to use and offers a lot of really nice features.
5 ★I'm loving this emulator. my only gripe is when playing a game such as the "sims:bustin out" where moving diagonally is required. I've fooled around with the settings( making diagonals larger, smaller etc.), but I can't get it to read diagonal movement very well. wish there was maybe a virtual control stick option, unless I glanced over it. Otherwise 5/5, awesome emulator.
4 ★I bought this just to support you, keep up with the excellent work! The emulator is perfect, but I'd love to be able to connect "in multiplayer" with the same rom on the same device. This would greatly help with games like "Pokémon" as you could trade with yourself some pokémon which evolve only by being traded and get some pokémon which you wouldn't be able to get without cheats.
5 ★Everything you need in an emulator. Customizable layout, multiple saves. Runs fast and stable
3 ★Works well, but the cheat code input says certain codes don't work when multiple sites say they do. Now the codes I've inputed that worked, no longer work.
5 ★I installed this just to play pokemon emerald and it runs smoothly, I had no problems playing it but one thing I learned the hard way is when you exit without saving when the pop up tells you to it won't save any progress since the last time you did, I lost 6 hours of gameplay because I thought in game saves would be fine.
5 ★Non-email intrusive, fully-functional gba emulator. Fast forward, button mapping, save / load states, cheats, overlay customization, even FPS monitoring are all present here. Excellent optimization (even older phones will benefit from physical camera buttons etc that can be mapped to shoulder buttons or load / save functions). Perfect app to play some of my favorite RPGs from my pocket while taking up very little precious disk space.
