Mini vMac for Android
SAME problem i have recent apps to. Pls add icon at top right for mounting rom disk
First thing, it's great to use. Really. But then, ImportFL and ExportFL is not working as intended. Also, it's slow on some occasions. The control key is not working too. Thanks.
Runs great on a Pixel after upgrade to Android Oreo...even though there is no actual SD card. For some reason this emulator never used to work without SD card.
It's brilliant! I haven't had a single problem getting programs to run.
This app works well on other non-Android platforms but is of little use on Android as there is no way to load the disk (.dsk) file as it requires a device with a menu button (instructions say press the menu button to bring up the disk loading options) - However most Android devices do not have one and there appears to be no other way to get around this show-stopper conundrum.
I can't use this emulator simply because i have no menu button on my phone and i see no way to add diskettes
For people who dont have menu buttons, either hold the back or recent apps button, or use the floating accessibility menu some manufacturers add to android
I cannot get any disks or Roms running. I've installed vmac.rom as well as Mac OS 7.5.5 but it doesn't work on your website.
On both of my devices it says mini vmac.rom is missing. It's like it says we're too lazy to find mini vmac.rom.
Hey what happened to the MacII color version with more ram that I purchased? Not in the Play store now! Runs Quark Xpress 3.3 & System 7 well.
It wouldn't even let me use the app. Bad.
It is good if you know how to use it but it needs a trackpad mode and landscape options
Thank you for the latest update!
doesn't even work
It can't run!
Works well, but with this being a port for Android users, it really oughtn't rely on the same finicky, arcane setup process as the desktop versions. It ought to: scan storage for ROM and disk images, remember where those are, remember which were last used to boot, offer a better means of choosing disk images to mount/remount, offer a few basic settings without having to recompile (such as suppressing the LOUD sine wave when it starts, changing amount of RAM, screen resolution, and number of colours), and allow users' own keyboards for text entry. An easy way to add programs would just be icing on the cake!
Anyone get this to work in Android 6.0.1 ? (Samsung Note 5) It vMac works great on PC, but same files don't on Android. Assume it's either Android 64bit or the SD slot being internal. Only get a crash when loading any disk
It starts fine for me but it's very difficult to use the pointer and click on things with any accuracy. I recall a version of this app that I used during my freshman year of highschool that featured an alternate pointer mode which basically used the screen like a laptop trackpad, rather than just having the pointer go wherever your finger touches. It made it much easier to use.
For some reason it does not boot because it keeps coming up with cannot read file ????????????and what's the point if you have a old Mac plus that works you might as well use it
Great app!! It does everything it advertised. For those of you who can't get it to work, stop using illegal ROM files. ;)
I can't play on the MAC ROM because I downloaded an install package and put it into the "minivmac" folder I created but it STILL doesn't function properly...Can you please fix this bug??? ALSO, it only runs the rom on PC
Well, I think I did some wrong. I put 896K and it suddenly with a sad mac, and 000000 error code. My device is Samsung Galaxy C5 Pro, Android 6.0.1
Does not work. Says that It cannot read the disk file. Terrible emulator.
It is too confusing to use
このマックプラスは、素晴らしいです!5星でありがとうございます!
Help me
Please help it shows something like a floppy disk what do i do?
How do you use this?
It's OK
I don't even have a Macintosh
Won't make a directory
Pc version is also good
:-
WHAT THE HELL
no clear tutorial
I love the Mac version of Mini vMac and the idea of getting my antique Mac SW running on my Android tablet is very appealing! Sadly, the app can't find the ROM files or the Mac disk image. I'll keep trying in case there's a chance but I can't rate this version very high. Anyone have advice?
Great app! For those people out there who don't know how to start Mini vMac because it's on a new phone, hold on the menu button and you will be prompted to insert a disk. I had the same problem until I stumbled upon this trick.
Please update this whenever you enter Valid rom files (tested on desktop version of minivmac) they always give the finder six sad zeros. Please update! app is unusable with this error will change review when fixed
Love this emu. However, using a BT keyboard with it, if you connect or disconnect the keyboard while its running, it will crash and corrupt your open program so it wont run without reinstalling it on vmac. I ruined a couple of disk images by accident this way. If this bug gets fixed, I would bump up my score to y stars.

Can't run floppy image for Mac Plus since I have a newer device with "recent apps" instead of a menu button. This app is basically garbage if you have a device made after 2011. The point of this emulator is to provide the capability to run legacy software on current hardware. It is incapable of performing its intended function and is, by extension, worthless.
