A real camera.
Inside your Simulator.

Simera brings your Mac camera to iOS Simulator apps, so you can build and test camera experiences without reaching for a physical device.

WHY SIMERA

Stay in the Simulator.
Keep your flow.

Camera testing should feel like part of development, not a reason to break away from it.

01

Your Mac camera, live

Stream your built-in or connected camera straight into an iOS Simulator app with a single switch.

02

Test real capture flows

Exercise photo and video experiences in the Simulator instead of rebuilding your workflow around sample files.

03

Leave app code alone

Simera works at the Simulator camera boundary, so your production camera code stays production-ready.

HOW IT WORKS

Ready before your next build finishes.

Simera lives quietly in your menu bar and connects to the Simulator you are already using.

QUESTIONS

Good to know.

Does Simera require changes to my app?

No. Simera works with supported camera APIs inside the iOS Simulator. There is no package or SDK to add to your project.

Does it support Flutter apps?

Yes. Simera is designed to support common Flutter camera and image-picker flows that use the native iOS camera APIs underneath.

Is the camera feed uploaded anywhere?

No. The live camera feed is processed locally between your Mac and the Simulator.

Can I move my license to another Mac?

Yes. A license covers one active Mac, and you will be able to deactivate it before moving to another computer.
