I only have an iPad, but I'm working on an iPhone site and I need to test for its dimensions. Anyone know an app made for this?
If you do not have a Mac, you could download a iPhone app which has a browser in built.
Try installing Dolphin iPhone App on the iPad
Or on a Mac, you may test it on the iPhone Simulator.
Open iOS simulator,
Select iPhone in Hardware > Device
Open Safari on the simulator and type in your URL.
The iOS development tools, incl. Xcode, Interface Builder etc. have an iOS device simulator. You can download these tools from Apple if you're a registered (free) Apple developer.
(These run only on Mac OS X)
Would an online simulator do?

I built an web-based app, ran it through PhoneGap, which gave me an .ipa file. Now I want to create screenshots using the iPhone Simulator. But I can't figure out any way to get the app into the simulator.
Any ideas?
You have to deploy your PhoneGap app through XCode to the simulator.
You can't. It'll be ARM code which it can't read. See:
How can I install a .ipa file to my iPhone simulator
PhoneGap must have other ways to run it in the simulator?
As I heard, that using the iPhone Simulator in Flash CS 6 is now possible, I was really wondering to test my apps for the iPhone 5.
But honestly said, I haven't figured out, how this should work. So my question is: How to use the iPhone Simulator with Flash CS6?
I googled a lot and found only news, that it is possible now. But no tutorial or similar.
Thanks for your help.
You have to update your Flash Professional CS6 to version 12.0.2.
After updated, go to your target setting. You will found iOS Simulator SDK is available to be configured.
have you tried creating an AIR project for IOS? when you create an AIR for IOS it will automatically launch the simulator when you debug you movie. hope that helps! :)
Make sure you have XCode installed and an updated version of AIR SDK
You need to set the SDK location for the iPhone Simulator:
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneSimulator6.0.sdk
You do this on the General Tab of AIR for iOS Settings.
Now in order to target the iPhone Simulator you need to set the following:
Control > Test Movie > on iOS Simulator
Then you will be able to do "CMD+Return" and it will publish to the simulator.
The app will show up on the second screen just like a device would.

I am developing one application for iPad and iPhone. The problem is that I only have one iPad. I need to develop in a physical device cause I have some libraries inside the project that only works in device.
Are there any way to deploy in my iPad as an iPhone to check if the application code is working fine?
I have a jailbroken device.
Thanks!!
In Xcode select your target and then the Summary tab. Change the Devices value from Universal to iPhone. Now build and run your app on your iPad. It will run in iPhone compatibility mode on the iPad.
Don't forget to put that option back to Universal before shipping the app to Apple.
One limitation is you can't test to see if your app works on the 4" devices. The iPhone compatibility mode only works in 3.5" mode.
I want to do testing on an app which is provided free through iTunes. I do not have the source code of the app, i only have the .ipa file downloaded through iTunes and i do not have an iPhone or an iPad to install it and start my testing on the app . I want to test the app see how it works, write down scenarios and etc without using an iPhone or an iPad. I tried searching for iPhone simulators but i came to know that i cant install any apps on it, installed Xcode but i cannot simulate it until i have the source code which i do not have.
So can anyone suggest me where i can simulate an app which is provided through iTunes without having the source code ? I just want to see the app, what it provides etc without using an iPhone or iPad device
Many Thanks for your suggestions
The app will not run on your Mac. It’s been compiled for the processors in iOS devices, which makes it incompatible with the Intel processor in your Mac. I’d suggest finding a cheap iPhone 3GS or iPod Touch on eBay.
After installing xcode ios SDK I can now run iPhone Simulator. Now is it possible to install and run third party free iPhone apps such as Paper Glider just as you would on real iPhone and how to do that?
Nope, you cannot do that. The apps in the App Store are compiled for ARM; the simulator is for Intel CPUs. Oh, and also, note that it's a simulator, not an emulator.
Sorry to disappoint!
