Description

RocketSim for Xcode Simulator
RocketSim enhances the Xcode Simulator for iOS and iPadOS development: boost productivity and streamline your workflow with capture, networking, build insights, and quick actions beside the Simulator. Developers report building, testing, and verifying apps up to 2x faster per RocketSim Developer Research.

Key Highlights
- Polish screenshots and App Store Connect preview videos: open captures in the editor from the floating thumbnail, then tune bezels, touches, backgrounds, metadata, trim, and GIF export with App Store Connect-friendly dimensions—ideal for Swift, SwiftUI, and UIKit demos
- Debug networking without proxy certificates: throttle or drop traffic, Airplane Mode for your running app only, and inspect traffic via RocketSim Connect; use Copy Summary when you need a redacted line to paste into Slack or an agent prompt
- Track local build time trends next to Xcode with Build Insights across versions
- Exercise universal links, APNs payloads, GPS and time zones, environment overrides, and a VoiceOver overlay with keyboard navigation from the side window
- Pro: Simulator framebuffer recording up to 120 fps for fluid motion

Feature Breakdown

Screenshots and Recordings
- Start from the Captures tab in the side window; after capture, refine in the editor before export
- Bezels, touch callouts, optional metadata, audio, trim, GIF conversion
- Pro: 120 fps framebuffer recording when supported

Networking
- Simulate slow or lossy networks without slowing your Mac
- Per-app Airplane Mode in the Simulator only
- Inspect requests and responses; metrics; cURL export; trace export; Copy Summary for redacted sharing
- Speed control and monitor share a dedicated Networking area in the side window for quicker discovery

Accessibility
- VoiceOver overlay with keyboard navigation for testing in the Simulator without juggling a device as often
- Environment overrides from the side window: Bold Text, Dark Mode, Dynamic Type, and more—without opening Settings.app
- Tinted Liquid Glass legibility live on iOS 26 simulators

Build Insights
- Build count and duration trends in the main and side windows
- Compare performance across Xcode versions your team runs

Quick Actions for Builds
- Clear Derived Data globally or for the current app
- Open common app folders without Finder archaeology
- Grant, revoke, or reset permissions without reinstall churn

Compare Designs
- Overlay Figma, Sketch, or Zeplin frames on live UI
- Slider mode for pixel-level SwiftUI and UIKit checks

Design Tools and Magnify
- Grids and rulers in on-screen points; slow animations for layout polish
- Pixel zoom with color sampling as code

Deeplinks and Push Notifications
- Fire universal links and push payloads with the debugger attached
- Actions from recent builds; clipboard URL history; shareable Quick Action groups
- Grid or list layout for long route or push lists

Location Simulation
- Routes or single-pin GPS; time zones from a chosen place; Maps and travel flows

User Defaults Editor
- Live-edit standard and App Group defaults—flags, debug toggles, plist-backed state

Simulator Camera
- Mac camera in Simulator for AVFoundation, QR, and Vision-style demos

Full Customization
- Menu bar access including Open GitHub Issues
- Shortcuts and floating windows matched to your workflow

What's new

  • Version: 16.5.0
  • Last Updated:
  • New:
    - Added RocketSim Connect settings with connection status, LLDB setup diagnostics, manual setup commands, and an option to remove the Xcode debugger integration.
    - Simulator actions that Xcode 27's Device Hub dropped are back: shake the device, toggle light/dark appearance, and simulate a memory warning. Find them in the menu bar's new Simulator submenu and in the Compare tab's six-button panel alongside Grid, Rulers, and Slow Animations.
    - Shut down the active Simulator or every other booted Simulator from the Simulator submenu to reclaim the memory Device Hub keeps in use.
    - All Simulator actions have assignable shortcuts under Settings > Shortcuts, so you can restore Simulator.app bindings like ⇧⌘A for appearance.
    - Drag & drop imports are back for Xcode 27's Device Hub: drop `.apns` push payloads, root certificates, photos, videos, `.app` bundles, or links onto RocketSim's side window to import them into the active Simulator. The window turns into a dashed drop target while you drag, and a notification confirms what was imported.

    Fixed:
    - Keyboard shortcuts now work while Xcode 27's Device Hub is the frontmost app; previously they only activated for Simulator.app, so toggles like slow animations silently did nothing.
    - Unrelated macOS Services no longer appear in RocketSim's app menu or block assigning their key combinations to RocketSim shortcuts.
    - CLI agent flows are more reliable and token-efficient: batched interaction steps accept direct action aliases, fixed-duration waits stay inside `rocketsim do`, screen guards work with coordinate actions, duplicate labels support `--index`, large interaction deltas are compacted, ambiguous multi-Simulator targeting no longer guesses, and video recordings finalize on termination signals or after `--duration`.
    - Improved LLDB hook script by removing redundant queries.
    - Fixed the side window not appearing for Device Hub Simulators whose names include a hyphenated number (for example `17 Pro Max - 27`). (Thanks, M. Martino!)
    - Direct-download builds once again embed Sparkle.framework, preventing a launch crash after installing or updating RocketSim.
    - Fixed touch indicators appearing upside down in landscape recordings or vertically offset in recordings with an off-center device frame. (Thanks, S. Gardner and H. v.d. Ploeg!)
