iSimulate – Brings iPhone apps to the big screen
Author: dexxter // Category: Apple, Appstore, Downloads, Guides, Hacks, Mac, Software, TipsApple’s iPhone
simulator built into Xcode is nice and all but it doesn’t fully
replicate the actual feel of playing with an iPhone in real life, not
to mention you cannot test things such as the accelerometer and the
multitouch on screen. Company Vimov has created an awesome new application called iSimulate. iSimulate,
in conjunction with a Mac OS X application, it allows you to take the
input, including multitouch and accelerometer, of an iPhone, and
wirelessly connect it to the application running on your Mac and view
it on your monitor.
Developers can use it to test their applications in a ‘real world’ environment and to show off their applications on a nice big screen. This will also let people use apps on their big screen monitors. The iPhone’s screen is nice and all for portable use, but c’mon, wouldn’t it be nicer to play your favorite games on your favorite monitor or hdtv in your house? Assuming it performs nicely and all.
However, this app may not be ready for the latter use just yet. This iPhone application is intended for developers and the application required running on your mac is called an “SDK” this makes it obvious it’s intended for devs and not gamers. Though, it opens up big possibilities for the near future. If you would like to buy this application, we suggest you do so now as the price hasn’t reached the final price tag yet. Coming August 16th, 2009 the application will hit it’s final price tag of $32USD. Currently, it’s $8USD and coming August 10th, it will hit $10USD.
