The Remoted iOS Simulator for Windows allows you to test your apps on aniOS simulator displayed in Windows alongside Visual Studio 2019 and Visual Studio 2017.

Looking for an android or iOS emulator for M1 Mac. I’ve tried the popular emulators like Ld, blue stacks and nox but seems none work for M1 macs. I know there is the tedious workaround for the dev based iOS emulator but from my reading it’s a tedious process and doesn’t have the processing power for running mobile games well. Bonus: Apple M1 Macs. If none of the emulators seem to be doing the job for you, currently the best way to run iOS apps on a computer is just by using the new Apple M1 MacBooks and Mac Mini. These devices run on Apple’s new ARM chipsets and they can run iPhone apps with ease.

Getting started

The Remoted iOS Simulator for Windows is installed automatically as partof Xamarin in Visual Studio 2019 and Visual Studio 2017. To use it, follow these steps:

  1. Pair Visual Studio 2019 to a Mac Build host.
  2. In Visual Studio, start debugging an iOS or tvOS project. TheRemoted iOS Simulator for Windows will appear on your Windows machine.

Similarly, the Remoted iOS Simulator for Windows treats Windows Stylusinput as Apple Pencil input.
