Beacon SendReceiver vs SimBeam

Turn your iPhone or iPad into an Beacon transmitter and receiver. Beacon SendReceiver is a practical tool for development, installation checks, and on-site testing. Key features • Broadcast an Beacon signal with a custom UUID, Major, and Minor • Detect nearby beacons that match your registered UUIDs • View live proximity as Immediate, Near, or Far, together with RSSI • Inspect and copy UUID, Major, Minor, RSSI, and proximity details • Add, edit, and delete up to 20 UUIDs to monitor • Quickly reuse recently entered Major and Minor values No account or sign-up is required. Registered UUIDs and recent values are stored on your device. Bluetooth and location access are required. Distance and proximity are estimates based on signal strength and may vary with the device and surrounding environment. Use a physical device for beacon testing.

SimBeam turns your iPhone or iPad into a live remote for the iOS Simulators running on your Mac. Pair the app with your Mac once by scanning a QR code, then connect any time to see all the simulators on that Mac, open any one of them, and watch its screen as a real-time video stream. Your taps, swipes, and the Home button are sent straight back to the simulator, so you can actually use it from your device — not just look at it. WHAT YOU CAN DO • See every simulator on a paired Mac, with its iOS version and status • Stream a simulator's screen live, with low latency • Control it remotely — tap, swipe, and press Home • Boot or shut down a simulator right from your device • Jump back into recent simulators in one tap from the main screen • Pair and keep multiple Macs, and switch between them any time BUILT FOR DEVELOPERS AND QA Test how a build feels in the hand without unplugging from your desk. Show a running simulator to a colleague across the room. Keep an eye on a long scenario from the couch. REQUIRES A MAC SimBeam is a companion to the SimBeam app on macOS. You need a Mac running the SimBeam companion with at least one iOS Simulator to pair with and stream from. Pairing is secure and takes a single scan. PRIVACY Your pairing identity stays on your device. SimBeam has no account to create, shows no ads, and does not track you.
