iOS Emulators on Windows???

[youself]

Are there any real iOS Emulators that you can run iOS games or apps on Windows? iPadian is a fake ios simulator. and tired it.

no, afaik there is NO iOS emulators for windows, your best bet is running a VM of MacOS and running and iOS VM inside of that if you really need an iOS emulator.

Just gotta mention how piss-slow that'd be, especially on the OPs PC. At that point it'd be better to find an old and cheap as hell iPhone or iPad.

Why there are no iOS emulators for windows?

Because Apple is really restrictive of who has access to iOS and MacOS. Not only is it technically piracy using Apple's software on non-apple machine but the OS also has built in detection methods to see if its running in a VM.  That combined with the fact that it's built with driver support for only Apple machines means it's complicated to try and port it to another machine and if someone did make an emulator it would almost immediately be shut down by Apple and patched to stop it from working.

Because Apple has invested billions of dollars on keeping iOS a safe and secure operating system. The only way you can emulate iOS in some way is on a Mac with Xcode. And that’s just for app testing.

Are you just going to keep asking the same questions with different software all day? I know you're curious, but damn dude. Do some research.

3 threads on pretty much the exact same topic in 24 hours, you really don't give up.

 

It's been clearly explained to you multiple times, you cannot legally run Apple software on your computer, you cannot legally or reasonably emulate macOS on your computer and you cannot emulate iOS either.

 

If you really want FCP so badly the ONLY option you have is to buy a mac.

Because Apple wants developers to buy Apple products so that Apple can make money from every single point in the development cycle of applications for Apple devices.

 

What devices an emulator can run on has nothing to do with the security of iOS at all.

Yes. Because Apple is a business.

So is Microsoft but my costs for developing for the Xbox one is a 1 time $25 and Visual Studio community, which is free. I can also run the same code on any number of other devices not to mention testing it out on an actual retail Xbox. I can run the same code on iOS if I was so inclined, again free using Xamarin.

 

Microsoft is finally realising that there is more to the world than their products and so far opening up the Xbox to 3rd party development has been working out for them, probably the only console yet to have remained secure and un-tampered with until at least the announcement of it's replacement.

If you're making software to run on Apple products its reasonable to expect the developer to own said product. How else are you going to real-world test it.

Sure it does. Once you can emulate something it becomes trivial to probe it for security flaws. By limiting access to the source code and how to emulate it you limit research on its flaws.

There's a difference between testing on a device, and being forced to buy a completely different device to do the programming.

 

No-one but Apple has the iOS source code, and there's nothing to stop me downloading an OSX VM and running the emulator in there, I have the emulator and didn't buy anything, super secure eh.

I have locks on my doors and an alarm system. It's still very possible to steal from me but it's going to deter a majority of thieves. Apple can never truly lock down their software, but they can certainly make it harder to probe.

Not really a comparison. That's like saying saying your locks are 100% attack-proof, but all the keys are the same. All you need to do is buy the same lock and you can open anyone elses.
