I used to use iOS, and there was a great emulator called “Delta”. It was open source and free, and it was so easy to add games to it’s library. Is there such an app for Android? I would very much like it if the app was open source and free.

Retroarch is fantastic and allows for many numerous emulators. It is FOSS.
I synch my roms and saves using Google Drive and DriveSynch; free, but not necessarily a FOSS process.
Alternatively I use Syncthing to keep my saves synced between my phone, PC and home server.
I’m slowly collecting the things I will need to build a home NAS. That sounds interesting, and I’ll be glad to check it out.
You won’t regret it, syncthing is super easy to use and it just works without hassle. I’d suggest Plex too for your NAS setup.
I have been using Jellyfin for video. It runs great so far.
I tedted both, my brief summary:
-
iOS sucks for retro gaming. Possible but tedious (In general, i am an iOS person, but gaming made me consider android.)
-
android emulation is more versatile snd allows for tweaking, which is required for many hardware/game/emulation mixtures –Retroarch works best up to 16 bit systems –N64 and up works best with dedicated emulators (mupen64 plus FZ, Dolphin, duckstation, aethersx2)
Maybe this helps you.
