It is an emulator that is rather not free to use but it offers you a demo to use for a limited time. Which also means that you will necessarily need to have AIR framework installed on your PC for this to be activated and be working.Īppetize.io is another amazingly free iPhone emulator for PC that allows you to install and run apps on your Windows PC. That means that AirPhone emulator replicates any of the iOS you choose on your Windows PC. It is an Adobe AIR that copies an iPhone GUI on your Windows PC. This emulator does all the other normal things other emulators do. It has different features as one is for beta testing for developers, which makes it easy for developers to test their code. Xamarin works generally to make you try your new iOS apps on your Windows PC. It is good and makes you test your codes on various iOS devices. This is another emulator that will be favourable for a developer to try new apps. This iPhone and Android emulator for PC is very easy to use and easy to download, making it easy for you to run any of your Android apps and iOS apps on your Windows PC. MobileOne does not just emulate iOS but also Android which makes you use an Android app alongside an iOS app. It was designed for app developers that would like to test new apps. This app is not probably for you if you are not a developer.

And most people call iPadian a simulator because it has the exact look of the iOS on Windows PC. It only allows you access to the apps that are already part of the emulator. Downloading something externally will not work on this emulator.

Macs are expensive, but if you want to develop on Apple platforms you kind of have to s u c k it up and buy one.This is another iPhone emulator for PCthat might be quite strict if you say because it allows apps that are created for it to only work on it. Interestingly I recently read a blog post by a well known dev that built himself a Hackintosh, not sure if its being used a development machine or was just for fun. I think I remember someone telling me in some countries Apple's terms of service may not be enforceable on this, but I don't know if that's true or not. So yeah.the answer is this.technically you can run macOS on non-Apple hardware but you are violating Apple's terms of service. If Apple chooses to enforce its rules, they may kick you out of the dev program and you will have wasted your time. Maybe they will notice that you are not on Mac and turn a blind eye, but then again, maybe they won't.

Maybe you'll get away with it by running macOS on a virtual machine, maybe you won't. If you plan on developing for the platform officially (submitting apps to the App Stores) I recommend you invest in a Mac. If you do, you basically are going rogue. You can't officially run macOS (and by extension Xcode) on non-Apple hardware. It is unless you are running it in a virtual machine on a Mac (which is not a solution for the poster).
