This feature makes game testing for phones easy. Great work and thanks Unity for understanding needs of you mobile devs.

I have been dreaming about this for a while now! Thank you guys, You are the best!

This is a real game-changer. Thanks, Unity, you are the best!

Such a great tool! Saves tons of time and huge help preventing UI issues. Amazing work Unity team!

Finally, after all these years of waiting

This will be very useful. I can't wait to try it out!

Really incredible stuff. Thank you guys

unity adds 100+ features and usually few of them are gold, this is one of them

That's gooood. Also i think it would be great if touchscreen input could be simulated in editor

What about a simple CRUD to save the JSON, when adding custom devices, instead of creating it manually?

This is such a great tool. WOw perfect

thank you so much for this feature ..it definitely gone save me lot of time 😊😊

This is SUPER! I really am looking forward to this. Please support this feature, is very useful.

Simulating the performance of the device would be awesome...

Thats udderly awesome

Awesome! Thanks!

Great very helpfull, thank you

This is amazing

SystemInfoSimulation.cs is a real mess. I keep getting the error "Could not pick GraphicsDeviceType, the game would fail to launch" even with the default settings, copied from the complete device in the manual. And with all those codes from line 92 to 148 it's impossible to know which one causes the error message hence it can be any of those. And I can't even add a debug syntax to see if everything else works.

Now this is cool!

Imagine not being able to develop for Android with 2019.3+.

This update will make mobile games development on Unity so much easier 🙏

Will this work with Google Play Services? That's a cumbersome build and run process to test changes..

Looks awesome! Will it also simulate sensor availability? Ie will SystemInfo.supportsGyroscope return false wheb simulating a device with no gyro?

Thanks!!!

Pls how do i get the settings to set the resolutions? Because in my 2021 unity version, there's no settings to change custom resolution.. Pls help

Hey, so if I were to use this simulator to adjust my game with a resolution of 2400x1080, would that affect another resolution of 1920x1080. Like how would that work exactly.

Would this support native UI elements such as a numberpad?

Is there a way to simulate the touchscreen functions with a tablet with touch support?

Me hearing this just after upgrading to 2019.4 YESSSSSS!!!

Hi I cannot seem to access the screen settings of my simulations. I only have Applications Settings active

How about Build and Run? My device, is set as default and I don't have an android phone. When I build and run Unity wants me to plug in a phone.

Does this simulator allow you to test mobile controls like touch screen?

Hi...Thanks, but It is no easy the ítem about: sandbox environment. The video isn't explicit about that, and the information on Unity is very confuse

Great!!

Do you know if there is a way to simulate Wireless Disconnect messages?

Nice. If that would include VR-headsets it would be also more useful.

Hey there! Thank you for our feedback. The Device Simulation team say that at the moment, Device Simulator “simulates” phones, which is relitively easy, because hardware is pretty straightforward and especially because input is easily replicatable in editor, like mouse being used to replicate touch. With VR there are a lot more moving parts (literally) like head position, controllers position, multiple buttons on controllers etc. which would be hard to replicate in meaningful way in editor with keyboard and mouse. While this may not fit inside Device Simulator, our XR team made note that this could be something that they can explore doing so at the very least, your request may be something another team at Unity could potentially do.

Dear Unity, how to use "back key" when using simulator?

This is great! Does the little neon sample UI come with it?

Why does the mobile preview have that banding effect though. Is it part of the game's UX?

Yes!

👍👍👍👍👍

When will we be able to connect to Google Play Services without putting a build on an actual phone? I would expect that functionality in this "device simulator"

The most usefull part of this, would be to allow us to test third services like google play games, facebook, firebase,etc... this is the real time consuming for mobile game dev

Incredibly useful and truly something other engines lack. Simulating a mobile device I've used from time to time in Chrome when testing webgl content for mobile. This feels similar. BUT it probably doesn't simulate all the gpu peculiarities of a mobile device does it?

Sweet

now something where i can simulate my shaders in if they are correct or not
