I'd like to see if it would be possible to make Pegasus more intuitive on Android, given that we have an external dependency to make Pegasus fully functional. This would be very good for the community, making it easier to access the Pegasus Frontend and also making it more optimized when configuring.
For example, a separate engine within the launcher (synchronized with the screencrapper service) for scrapping covers, images and videos, the emulator scanning the roms folder and attaching them to each platform or giving the user the option of going into the rom folder and selecting the correct platform.
Currently I see Pegasus as the most beautiful frontend for android and we have many consoles to have this wonderful experience, such as Powkiddy, AYN, Retroid. If it were possible to make these implementations, it would be perfect.

Hi! The idea behind Pegasus is that is is just one component of a larger setup. I do not have the manpower to support each and every device, emulator and scraping site in existence :) Ideally there would be a plugin or extension system for adding features, and this kind of works already for the third party data sources. Something similar could be done for scraping, achievement support, etc., but someone has to write and maintain the code for that specific service, and that's where we lack.

I see your point, my friend. You're alone in the project. Of course, if someone is interested in helping you with this, if pegasus has a simplified system like Daishijo, for example (scrapping, searching for roms independently, being computer-free is what I mean), I think we'll have a major front-end here for android users. I'm not saying it's inferior to Daishijo, pegasus has a lot of diversification such as adjusting game images without distorting them, previewing videos and a vast amount of theming that literally changes its UI and that's fascinating.
But that's it, if anyone sees this suggestion and decides to help our hard-working developer here, they're very welcome (sometimes I wish I had the knowledge to be useful in projects like this and help out).
