Why does installation fail on newer Android versions (14 - 16)?

What Android version does AetherSX2 require?

AetherSX2 requires Android 8.0 (API 26) or higher. Optimized for Android 12L (API 32).

Is AetherSX2 free?

Yes, it is free to use, but it is ad-supported.

What processor architecture does AetherSX2 support?

AetherSX2 supports arm64-v8a. This build does not support x86/x86_64 processors, so it will not run on most PC emulators. If you are unsure about your device architecture, check the Device Info section on this page.

How to enable installation from unknown sources on Android?

Go to Settings → Security (or Settings → Apps → Special access on Android 8+) and enable "Install unknown apps" for your browser or file manager. On Android 8 and above this setting is per-app, not global. Read more
