About MiniSim
MiniSim is a small utility menu bar app for launching Android and iOS emulators, written in Swift and AppKit. It is aimed at mobile developers who start simulators many times a day.
A global shortcut opens the menu, and the app marks which devices are currently running. It relies on Xcode and the Android SDK being set up on your machine to find available devices.
Highlights
- Launch iOS emulators, copy device UDID or name, and delete simulators
- Launch Android emulators with cold boot, or run them without audio
- Toggle accessibility on a selected Android emulator and copy its ADB id
- Focus devices using the accessibility API
- Set default launch flags and see which devices are running
- Open with the global shortcut Option + Shift + E
