I’m learning iOS development and I need to know what hardware I need to test my apps.
Is the iPhone/iPad simulator in Xcode sufficient? Or do I need the hardware? I have an iPad 2, and an iPhone 3G. The iPad 2 is one generation old, while my iPhone 3G is three generations old.
My first project is a basic card game with networking, based on a tutorial.
Opinion: Considering the number of questions I see of the form “this works great on the simulator but not on my device” I’d say that having hardware for testing is necessary. I don’t think you need every possible device but certainly ones that cover the features that your app uses.
