Test iOS Apps with the iOS Simulator

Your agents can run and test iPhone apps on a cloud iOS Simulator from NoMac. You watch the simulator beside the terminal and can take control at any time. NoMac bills simulator usage to your own NoMac account; TermSquad adds no charge.

Connect NoMac

Open Settings and find iOS Simulator and Cloud Mac · NoMac.
Paste your NoMac API key and select Connect.

Use Replace key or Disconnect to change the connection later. NoMac keeps simulator recordings for seven days.

Ask your agent to test the app

Ask in your own words, for example: “Start an iOS simulator and check the new onboarding screens.” Agents can build Xcode projects on NoMac’s Macs and install the app, or run Expo apps through Expo Go or a development build.

When the session starts, the iOS Simulator button appears in the terminal toolbar and the panel opens. The panel shows Home, Stop and Take control.

Take control

The status reads Agent controls the simulator while your agent works. Select Take control to tap, swipe and type yourself; the status changes to You control the simulator. Agent commands wait while you hold control. If an agent command is already running, it finishes first. Closing or hiding the panel returns control.

Stop sessions and limits

Closing the panel does not stop a paid session. Ask your agent to stop it, select Stop in the panel or stop it from Simulator sessions in Settings. TermSquad applies time, idle and spend limits to every session it starts, and each session belongs to one computer and project.
