RapidWeaver for Mac is a powerful and easy to use web design app that puts you back in control. Look on iPhone's, iPad's. New device simulator in. Open multiple simulator windows, scale.

Apart from health, finance, entertainment, and calling, there is one more exciting way you can use your iPad and iPhone; it’s gaming. iPhone and iPad are fully equipped to play high-quality games. One of my favorites is Need for Speed No Limits by Electronic Arts.

But what haunts me is the desire to play it on a big screen in order to get the best out of it. There is one way by which we can enjoy such high-quality games: play them on Mac using QuickTime player. It is the safest and best way because there are no third-party apps involved.

Until Apple rolls out more iOS apps for macOS, the second best thing you can do is simulate them. IPadian is the most popular software for doing this. It’s a great simulator that lets you run very close approximations of iOS apps and games on a Mac. The untrained eye might not even notice the difference, as the apps are so well-simulated.
Apple’s iOS is a closed-source OS. That said, you can still use an iOS emulator to use, develop, and test iOS apps and games on Windows or Mac PC. What Is An iOS Emulator? Generally, an emulator refers to hardware or software that enables one computer system to behave like another computer system.
The Simulator does not run ARM code, ONLY x86 code. Unless you have the raw source code from Apple, you won't see the App Store on the Simulator. The app you write you will be able to test in the Simulator by running it directly from Xcode even if you don't have a developer account.
They are either fake iOS emulator, or just an iOS simulator, or iOS IDE/GUI for developing iOS apps/games and some can contains malicious codes to steal/block/harm your PC/Mac/Android data. There’s no real iOS emulator until today! Not the one you think of – the one where you can start the commercial apps or games just by tapping on it.

How to Play iPhone or iPad Game on Your Mac Using QuickTime Player

Step #1. Connect your iPhone or iPad with your Mac using lightning cable.

Step #2. Open QuickTime player once your device is connected to your Mac.

Step #3. Click “File” from the menu bar in QuickTime player.

Step #4. Now click on “New Movie Recording.”

Step #5.“FaceTime HD Camera” would be selected by default; just change it to your iPhone or iPad located just below this option.

QuickTime will now start mirroring your device display on your Mac. To have a full-screen display, simply click on the green full-screen icon.

The best part is that your iOS device will work as a controller while your Mac will be used as a display.

In addition, QuickTime will automatically move from landscape to portrait mode depending on your device movement. So you will enjoy the same excitement of gaming on Mac as you do on your iPhone or iPad.

So? Which is the first iPhone game you played on your Mac? Share with us in the comment.
