'''Flycast''' is a free and open-source [[Sega Dreamcast emulators|Dreamcast emulator]] currently available for [[Emulators on Windows|Windows]], Linux, [[Emulators on macOS|macOS]], [[Emulators on Android|Android]] and [[Emulators on Switch|Nintendo Switch]]. Also in the works is the [https://github.com/flyinghead/flycast/pull/1440 PS Vita release]. Flycast was previously available for [[Emulators on iOS|iOS]] but the developer (flyinghead) dropped its support and removed the builds from the builds' repository, [https://www.androidauthority.com/flycast-dreamcast-emulator-ios-pulled-3565019/ citing persistent abusive behaviour (including death threats) towards him by an iOS user from several IP addresses]. The last version released for iOS [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UKucFA0JX3zfyR5EsrnoYdZNoOSa_Un-/view?usp=drivesdk has been archived] (the IPA is [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WdXRg8qbUuWbKuZBsB4ghaVMxhNRSJ_T/view d9ec0cb 2025-06-01T09:02:57.000Z]). A tech-savvy user nevertheless may compile future versions' iOS builds themselves since the code is still there, it's just that the automatic build builder won't do it automatically (or alternatively use [[Manic EMU]] since its Dreamcast core is a port of Flycast).

Similarly, an advanced user can compile flycast builds for [[#Windows on ARM compilation|Windows on ARM]] and [[#Raspberry Pi compilation|Raspberry Pi]] since the official build builder doesn't offer official builds for these platforms, at least for now.
