Frequently Asked Questions

How to test apps on iPads?

Simply follow these simple steps to test an app on a real iPad device:

• Sign up on BrowserStack App Live for a free trial.
• Choose the desired real iPad to test app on (multiple devices to choose from).
• Download and install your App through Apple Store or directly upload an IPA file from your system.

Why is testing your website on iPad critical?

iPads have a 30% share in the global tablet market. For websites and apps used extensively in landscape mode (e.g., video and OTT platforms), users are predominantly using their tablets. Hence, testing websites and apps for responsive design, cross browser compatibility and user experience on iPads is very critical.

What is an iPad emulator or iPad simulator?

An iPad simulator mimics a real iPad device on your workstation, allowing developers and QA testers to quickly check their websites and apps. Online iPad simulators can be used on Windows, Mac & other operating systems. There are no iPad emulators, only simulators.

Why do users opt for iPad simulators and emulators?

• iPads have good market penetration; testing is essential.
• Companies prefer not to invest in expensive device labs.
• Cheap simulators claim to detect high-level behavior.

What are the disadvantages of using an iPad simulator?

Simulators can compromise the end-user experience due to lower performance, limited app support, and inability to mimic exact hardware configurations.

Why use real device cloud of BrowserStack instead of iPad emulators?

BrowserStack provides instant access to real iPad devices, eliminating the need for expensive labs and allowing for accurate testing of features like gesture behavior and battery consumption.
