Using an IOS emulator to capture Step-By-Step video

Good day!

I need to create a training on an IOS app that my company is using.  I have Storyline 360 on a PC so I am unable to install the app directly.  I am hoping to try using an IOS emulator on  my work pc and installing the app there.  Has anyone ever tried doing this?  If so, what software did you use to emulate?  Thanks!

  • Hi WilsonSantiago1 check-out https://letsview.com/ . It uses your local wifi connection to mirror your iphone device on a windows desktop. There is a free version, but the business version is inexpensive and removes the watermark and provides higher quality mirroring.

      Thanks for responding SamHill.  I don't think this will work as the program is mirroring, not emulating.  To capture the Step-by-Step feature in Storyline 360 the program needs to be running on the same computer as Storyline.  At least that was what I read in another discussion here.

      Thanks for responding.  I believe this is the same problem I mentioned above as this is casting. Storyline needs to capture from the actual running program.

      Thanks PhilMayor.  Is reflector an emulator or does it mirror?

  • You will not be able to use the step-by-step feature; I would use reflector and build it out myself step by step.

    You could try an emulator but I suspect there will be a lot of work to make it look good
