iOS Question ios device model

[ALBRECHT]

Hello,

After a first B4a App, i will rewrite en check it for B4i. i have got Hosted Mac Builder service but I think first to prefer the real device instead

So, In order to get an IOS device to :
- Install B4i Bridge
- sharing IOS Device Screen with my PC
- Checking the B4i app

I would like some advices to choice an used equipment, but :
- an iphone or a old macbook ?
- Which best ios version for both ?

Kind regards

My opinion:
- the newer iPad or iPhone that you can buy.
- better and easy: hosted mac builder.

Edit: When you use the Hosted Mac Builder you can install your App in your iPhone or iPad.

For example, i had some pbs with B4a TTS for speeching words that could only works with a real device (not with android simulator). So i would not to have the same pbs with B4I for that or for other phone fonctionnality : So the b4i documentation suggest an iOS device running iOS 8+ ?

But I thought to be able to check an B4i app trough different version and size of Iphone and Ipad : how to proceed ?

Is it possible with a MacBook and how to simulate a multi-device on it ?

If yes, I can get an old Mac Book Pro (2011) with MAC OS X 10 (8 to 13), if that configuration works for that ?

You must use a Mac that can run MAC 10.14+.

With a Mac you can test your app on the simulator.
