Simple iPhone Emulator for Windows

photo487This post is short but sweet. I discovered today an iPhone emulator developed by a guy named Shaun Sullivan. Unfortunately, there is no way to totally emulate the iPhone on Windows but what Shawn has done is made an executable that runs a Windows build of WebKit and embeds it inside an iPhone-like shape. I had a play with it and it isn’t perfect by any means but it is the best solution I have seen for helping Windows users understand how their website shows on the iPhone.

If you’re a Windows user try it out: http://code.google.com/p/ibbdemo2/downloads/list?can=1&q=

Most things rendered similar to how they actually appear on my iPhone but the use is much clunkier than on the actual iPhone.

This is really slick. I have been looking for a solution to emulate the iphone since I don’t have one and prefer my Blackberry.

I just got an iPhone. However, unless I can figure out how to get it to run in an Internet Explorer Emulation mode, I’ll have to take it back. No sense in paying $30. a month for I-net unless I can access the business websites & get/update information.

Are you aware of any I E emulation software out there that can be put on the iPhone?

Thanks

On first impressions you appear to be a rude prick.
btw DAR DAR “nobody cares about you point of view”

Its very best simulator…

very best simulator, it is.

LOL. Internet Explorer Simulator for iPhone…are you kidding me? Yes, there is a simulator to make the iPhone browser a piece of shit…I bet that would be a hot seller.

@SoWeLie I don’t think you read the post at all. This is so you can simulate an iPhone on a Windows computer it has nothing to do with Internet Explorer. The goal is to provide web developers working on Windows a way to see what their website looks like on the iPhone in the native Safari browser.

can it run i phone games

Kid , if i had a nickel every time i heard :

“Unfortunately, there is no way to totally emulate”

I’d be rich.

Everything can be emulated.

@Bob I would agree it is technically possible, however, Apple isn’t going to let it happen, at least not the way you can emulate through xcode. If you have a genius way to make it happen, you might want to build it…. then you might actually be rich. Since you were searching for an iPhone emulator, I am guessing you don’t have a method to do it either.
