Overview

Device Hub brings simulators and paired devices together. When you run your app it opens in a compact window you can control with your Mac, even for a physical iPhone on your desk.

Expand it to inspect device state, change appearance, grab diagnostics, record screenshots and video, and pair new devices over Wi-Fi or a cable.

One place

All your simulators and paired devices, without leaving Xcode.

Control from your Mac

Interact with apps on simulators and physical devices with your keyboard and pointer.

Inspector

Device info, appearance settings, installed apps and diagnostics.

Screenshots and video

Capture your app for reviews, bug reports or the App Store.
