==Overview==
Delta is the successor to a popular GBA emulator, GBA4iOS, made by the same developer and started development back in March of 2015. Similarly to RetroArch, it uses a core-based approach with each system running off its own core, however it is not libretro-based and uses its own system to link into these cores. RetroAchievement support is in a beta phase for select cores (NES, SNES, N64), and all cores are planned in the future.
===Supported systems===
So far, only the NES, SNES, N64, GB(C), GBA and NDS systems are supported. Support for Sega Genesis emulation is planned for public release (1.8) with initial support added in a beta release (1.3b4).

==Issues==
In the European Union, sideloading is the only way to use Delta.<ref>https://www.macrumors.com/2024/04/17/altstore-eu-alternative-app-marketplace/</ref>
 
People have had issues with ROM hacks where some refuse to boot, and others run improperly.
 
Delta's [[RetroAchievements]] support is problematic due to paywalling the feature, which led to the decision to [https://retroachievements.org/forums/topic/31930 delist Delta and disable hardcore support on 12 September 2025].
