IOS SIMULATOR

Your agents build iPhone apps. You watch them run.

Building an iPhone app no longer needs a Mac on your desk. Your agent installs the app, taps through it and checks the result in a cloud simulator. You watch every step beside the terminal, and you can tap, swipe or type yourself.

  • Uses your NoMac account
  • Tap, swipe, take over
  • Xcode and Expo apps

What is the iOS Simulator integration?

TermSquad’s iOS Simulator integration lets your AI agents run and test iPhone apps on a cloud iOS Simulator from NoMac, directly from your TermSquad terminal. You connect your own NoMac account, watch the simulator live and can take control at any time.

Why agents need a simulator

Real taps.
Real feedback.

Mobile bugs hide in real interactions: a button out of reach, a screen that never loads. When agents can run the app and use it like a person, they find those issues before your users do, and you see exactly what they saw.

Build and install

From code to a running app.

Agents build Xcode projects on NoMac’s Macs and install the app, or run Expo apps through Expo Go or a development build.

Xcode and Expo projects
Use the app

Tap through like a person.

Agents tap, swipe and type, then look at the result. They catch the button that does nothing and the screen that never loads.

Taps, swipes and keys
Watch together

See what your agent sees.

The iOS Simulator panel opens beside the terminal as soon as a session starts. Take control to try something yourself, then hand it back.

Live panel + Take control

Bring your NoMac account. The simulator runs on NoMac’s cloud Macs. NoMac bills its usage to your own account; TermSquad sets time, idle and spend limits on every session it starts.

How the iOS Simulator works

Connect once.
Ask anytime.

After you connect NoMac, any agent on your computer can start a simulator for the project it is working on.

  1. 01

    Connect NoMac.

    Connect your NoMac account once: paste your NoMac API key in Settings.

  2. 02

    Ask your agent.

    Ask your agent to start an iOS simulator for your project. It builds or installs the app, and the iOS Simulator panel opens beside the terminal.

  3. 03

    Watch and take control.

    Watch the agent tap and swipe through the app. Select Take control to use the simulator yourself, then return control when you are done.

Shared control, no collisions. While you hold control, agent commands wait. If an agent command is already running, it finishes before you take over.

Built into the terminal

Your simulator,
right where you work.

Every session belongs to one computer and one project, and you can see and stop all of them from Settings.

The iOS Simulator integration includes
  • A cloud iOS Simulator from your NoMac account
  • A live simulator panel beside the terminal
  • Taps, swipes and keys from you or your agent
  • Home, Stop and Take control buttons
  • Xcode projects built on NoMac’s Macs
  • Expo apps through Expo Go or a development build
  • Time, idle and spend limits on every session
  • Every session listed in Settings, ready to stop

Closing the panel does not stop a paid session. Stop it from the panel, from Settings or by asking your agent.

What you need, what it costs and how you and your agents share control.

Explore the documentation
Do I need a Mac?

No. The simulator runs on NoMac’s cloud Macs. You and your agents use it from the TermSquad terminal in any browser.

What does it cost?

TermSquad adds no charge. You connect your own NoMac account, and NoMac bills simulator usage to that account. TermSquad applies time, idle and spend limits to every session it starts.

Which apps can my agent test?

Agents can build Xcode projects on NoMac’s Macs and install the app, or run Expo apps through Expo Go or a development build.

Can I use the simulator myself?

Yes. Select Take control to tap, swipe and type. Agent commands wait while you hold control, and closing the panel returns it. If an agent command is already running, it finishes before you take over.

Does closing the panel stop the simulator?

No. Closing the panel does not stop a paid session. Ask your agent to stop it, select Stop in the panel or stop it from Settings. Sessions also stop automatically when idle or when they reach their time limit.

Does NoMac keep recordings?

Yes. NoMac keeps simulator recordings for seven days. Review NoMac’s own terms for how it handles your data.
