Apple done something with hardware protection in IOS9 and now Dynamic recompilation (bread and butter of most emulators nowadays) is impossible, even on jailbroken devices.
So, even if there will be ios port - it will not run any game with 3d graphics somewhere near fullspeed.
You can check it with ppsspp and retroarch, which are availible on IOS.
I heard Windows Phone has a similar restriction as well.

You can also find me on Reddit (u/Ericbazinga) and Discord (in the DraStic Discord server). You'll find me in those places almost daily and here almost never.

Windows 10 Phone doesn't have this restriction, although it has some more minor issues.
