YOUR GAMES, YOUR LIBRARY • Import your own legally-owned game backups (.gba or .zip) straight from the Files app • Bitty ships with no games and never downloads any — you bring the games you already own • Battery saves work exactly like real hardware and persist automatically PLAY YOUR WAY • Save states: snapshot any moment and jump right back to it • Turbo mode: fast-forward at 2×, 4× or 8× through grinding and long dialogue • Accurate, responsive touch controls with haptic feedback • Full sound emulation with adjustable volume MAKE IT YOURS • 4 controller skins: Classic, Midnight, Bubblegum and Ghost • Authentic screen filters: pixel-sharp, LCD grid, or cozy CRT scanlines • 4 gameplay themes to set the backdrop mood • A cast of hand-drawn art starring Bitty, your cartridge companion SMOOTH AND STEADY • Full speed with room to spare, even on older iPhones • Games run entirely on your device — nothing is streamed • Designed to stay cool and easy on the battery during long sessions RESPECTFUL BY DESIGN • No accounts, no sign-ups, no ads • Your games and saves stay on your device and are never uploaded • We collect anonymous usage stats only — how long sessions run and which features get used — to know what to improve. No personal data, no tracking, and never the names of your games. LEGAL NOTE Bitty contains no copyrighted content and is not affiliated with or endorsed by any console manufacturer. Only import games you legally own, such as backups of cartridges you purchased. Bitty does not provide, link to, or assist in downloading game files. Questions or a game that won't run?

What’s new
Version 1.0.1 · Updated September 29, 2026
A big speed update. • Games now run dramatically faster and hold a steady frame rate, including on older iPhones and during long sessions when things used to slow down • Smoother, cleaner picture and better-behaved sound • Fixed games that could stutter or freeze in busy scenes Please note: save states made in earlier versions can't be opened by this one, so you'll need to make them again. Your in-game progress is safe — anything a game saved on its own carries over untouched. Bitty will remind you in the app if this affects you. As always, thanks for playing. Something not working?
