jsdf3432432 Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 So I paid for the lifetime license. Launchbox on Android is too slow compared to DIG frontend. The reason is Launchbox seems to load all meta data when displaying a system is picked. DIG only loads the box art. The meta data seems to be loaded when a game is actually selected on a new page in DIG. Launchbox just puts it on top and doesn't seem to load anything. So DIG is much faster and does not freeze. Also DIG lets you use the screenshots instead of box art. Box art is nice, but maybe some users like me want to view games using a screenshot. Just giving my feedback since I paid for it. I uninstalled Launchbox on me Android because it's not good for large collections although DIG is not as good as Launchbox for scraping meta data, it at least is good stable and fast for the gaming systems DIG supports.

There are definitely some devices that are just going to be too slow for LaunchBox. Let us know if you'd like a refund. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
