Simulate how your application looks and behaves on a mobile device without building to that device.
The Device Simulator previews screen resolution, orientation, safe area, and device-specific runtime behavior in the Editor, so you can check layout and device-dependent code before you build to hardware.
The following topics explain how to use the Device Simulator, add devices, and extend it with plug-ins.
Topic | Description |
|---|---|
| Device Simulator introduction | Understand what the Device Simulator does and which capabilities it provides. |
| The Simulator view | Use the window that the Device Simulator displays the simulation in. |
| Simulated classes | Test code that responds to device-specific behavior with the classes the Device Simulator provides. |
| Adding a device | Define a new device to simulate and use it in the Device Simulator. |
| Extending the Device Simulator | Create Device Simulator plug-ins to extend the functionality and user interface of the Simulator view. |
