You can see the Viewport size, positioning of elements & pixel density are dead-on. One is Emulation in Chrome and one is the iOS Simulator. I find Touch, Viewport, Pixel Density and Geolocation emulation are very useful in day-to-day development and allow for a high-degree of confidence when developing iOS apps.Ĭompare these two screens of an app I’m currently working on.
