ANTHROPIC ๐ฅ: A new capability to work with an iOS simulator has been added to Claude Code desktop.
Support for Android simulators is in the works too! (Currently not available yet)
Users will be able to disable this feature in settings when needed.
> Let Claude verify your changes in Android emulators on this Mac: running your app, driving it through flows, and capturing screenshots and recordings. You will be asked before Claude uses each device. When off, Claude doesnโt get its emulator tools, and you can still use the emulator in the app yourself.
Eventually, this will open up a huge range of tasks that Claude will be able to run on the mobile device.
Another startup killer feature? ๐
Claude Code on desktop now works with the iOS simulator.
Build and run your iOS app, and the simulator opens in a panel right next to your conversation. Available today in public beta.
