There are some features of iOS apps that don't work from the iOS simulator. Maybe you want to test how your application works with the device camera or send an SMS message from your application.

App.io is another professional iOS emulator that works online. To use the emulator and test apps or games before finalising the code, upload iOS app.zip file or Android.Apk file. Once uploaded, you can properly interact with your application and test it yourself. App.io provides a capable ecosystem for checking and enhancing applications. An App ID is an identifier that uniquely identifies an application on iOS. It's much like the device's UDID, which uniquely identifies a device.

Plug your iPhone into your computer. You can select your device from the top of the list.

Troubleshooting Common Errors

'Signing Requires a Development Team'


Xcode requires that you've connected a Team to your project in order to run the simulator on a device. You can do this from the 'General' tab of your Project Settings. As of Xcode 7 this can be any Apple ID.

Open the Team menu that currently says 'None' and select your team. If you don't have a team, select 'Add an Account…' and create one with your Apple ID.
