I don't have an iPhone, and I don't have a Mac I could use to run the SDK, but I do have access to an iPad. How can I simulate the iPhone (and iPod Touch) Safari browsing experience on the iPad? I need to be able to replicate the iPhone pixel dimensions at the very least, plus a few things like orientation switching and geolocation that are present in the iPad anyway. It would be nice if it could transmit the iPhone user agent string, but if that's not possible I can work around it.
Launch Safari and enter the website you want to test. From the Safari menu bar, go to Develop > Enter Responsive Design Mode. Now choose the device from the dropdown or the device menu. Once you select the device, the entered website will open on the selected device.
Smartface allows you to emulate your iOS and Android application on a Windows PC with a single click. To emulate your application on any iOS device, like an iPad emulator or an iPhone emulator, download Smartface app from the iOS App Store and connect your iOS device to your Windows machine.
do you already own iphone ? if not, you can use third party browser on ipad. i use dolphin browser for iphone. can be installed too on ipad. it will have almost same behaviour like safari because apple restrict to only use webkit for any thirdparty web browser.
For anyone still looking for a solution - there is now an easier way by using a split screen option to put Safari side by side with another app, and reduce its width to the width of an iPhone.
