Is there any tool where we check our code online in iPad or tablet online?
I found one link, it is only for iphone. Does anybody know same type of link where we check our code for iPad or tablets?
If you're using Google's Chrome browser and if you open up the Developer Tools you will see a nice device emulation option, and you can choose from a lot of predefined devices or enter your own resolution:

We are facing few HTML/CSS issues on rendering our HTML email on Apple mail client on iPhones
Is there a way one can inspect and debug the issue?
Does Apple provide any emulator/tool to do the same?
What worked for us is Epiphany browser. It mimicked the restricted ability of Apple mail client to render HTML far more closely than any of the solutions below -
google chrome, firefox, safari in responsive design mode
Someone suggested to try emulator in XCode but I couldn't get hold of Apple mail in Xcode -> Window -> Devices and Simulators
You can download an emulator in xcode and visually inspect most Apple devices in emulation.
A simple approach is to use Google Chrome. The engine powering Chrome is based on Webkit, which is the same html engine that powers Safari and IOS and iPadOS devices. The Inspector can allow you to inspect a variety of devices in emulation.
You can do much of this with Apple Safari as well.
A third approach is go post your code, define the problem and let people see if they can determine a fix.
Good luck.
I am trying to make my webpage mobile friendly. So, I am using Chrome DevTools to design a mobile version of my webpage. I have it the way I want it to look in DevTools. I uploaded it to my website & viewed it on a actual mobile phone & objects are not in the same places as they are in DevTools. I used the iPhone 6 mobile design in DevTools and also view it on an actual iPhone 6. They don't match. Anyone else have this problem? I have read articles about this, but don't know how to fix it. Any ideas? Should I use a different emulator?
This is Chrome DevTools version on iPhone 6:
This is how it really looks on an iPhone 6:
DevTools technical writer here. DevTools is just a simulation of mobile devices. It can't truly simulate an iPhone. So it's always a good idea to check how it actually looks on the devices that you care about (like you did). I don't think there's any bug or issue here. It's just an instance where the DevTools simulation doesn't reflect reality 100%.
Mac users can use Xcode's Simulator (that's the actual name of the simulator) to emulate any Apple mobile device and see exactly how their website will appear on it.
You can use it to open Safari and access your localhost. I used it to fix issues on my website, issues that I could not reproduce in DevTools' device simulator.
Clear the cache for on your browser to ensure that your phone is accessing the most recent updates to your code.
I have a mobile site which I developed in ASP.NET and I was wondering if anyone knows of any tools to test this on Chrome in an iPhone / iPad environment? This site has been functioning properly for awhile in every other browser on every other device, however there seem to be issues with it in this browser only on the iPhone / iPad. I just don't know how / if I can debug it somehow. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
You may find Adobe Shadow a helpful tool in this case: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/shadow/
Watch the demonstration here, you'll see that you can debug your code like you would using the chrome dev tools itself.
Specifically, the "max-device-width:" condition
If you're on a Mac, you can use the iPhone simulator that comes with XCode. I've also used a Firefox add-on called "Modify Headers" and I send iPhone headers, however, that may not help much with max-device-width.
For mac or PC, if you can upload your files to any temporary server, you can check the results online in TestiPhone: http://www.testiphone.com/
This is a web browser based simulator for quickly testing your iPhone
web applications. This tool has been so far tested and working using
Internet Explorer 7, FireFox 2 and Safari 3.
The firefox plugin Developer toolbar let you change the browser size with just one click to the device size. I bet there is plugins like that to the other browsers. If you can't find that to all browsers then I suggest that you just upload your code to a server and surf to it using an iPhone.
I want to test a website to see how it works with the iPhone but I don't own an iPhone or an iPod touch. Is there a way I can test how the site works on them without owning one?
What I'm really after is fixing how Stackoverflow's WMD markdown editor works on the iPhone. I hear that the hyperlink and image prompts are created too high. I think I know how to fix that but it's pretty tough to develop blind.
If you own a Mac, you can download the iPhone SDK which comes with an iPhone simulator. It works not only for debugging a native app but also for browsing the web.
If you have Safari on your computer, you can enable the "Develop" menu under Preferences > Advanced > Show Develop Menu in Menu Bar.
With this enabled, you can go to Develop > User Agent, and change the user-agent string to the device you want your browser to report to the web server as.
By resizing the window to the appropriate width, you can emulate what the site will look like on the iPhone.
The upside of this is that it's quick, it works on both Windows and Mac, and you don't need the iPhone SDK installed. You can also browse iPhone-specific versions of websites that catch user-agent strings directly from your PC.
The downside is obviously your Safari browser on your PC will behave quicker than on the actual device (especially in regard to javascript performance); it displays plugins and shows fonts that may not be available on the actual iPhone OS; a lack of multi-touch support and "snapping" to columns while scrolling; no auto-rotation; no multi-touch/pinch-zoom; widgets will look different; etc.
Just a notice on this old thread - we have now enabled live testing on iPhones and iPads via vnc at CrossBrowserTesting.com.

There is a free app on the mac that emulates the iPhone browser: iPhoney
I don't purport to have done more than a web search, but the problem seems to be solved by several products that are "iPhone web app emulators."
