Marketcircle, maker of Daylite Productivity Suite and Billings business software for the Mac, has updated iPhoney, an iPhone simulator for web designers, to version 1.2, which adds a “view source” feature and French, German and Norwegian localizations. “View source” enables iPhone web developers to view the source code of any specialized, iPhone specific web page.
iPhoney is an Open Source Project on SourceForge with the objective of providing a global test bench for iPhone developers. Version 1.2 is a fully native, Universal Binary Cocoa application, written in Objective-C.
Marketcircle has provided the site as a service to the Mac developer community to test iPhone-enabled Web 2.0 applications and compatible web sites. iPhoney will open any web site that works with Safari (Safari 3 works best), simulate the iPhone user agent to test browser redirection scripts, and rotate web sites in either portrait or landscape orientation.
iPhoney is also pixel accurate to the iPhone, which has 160 pixels. But since most Mac displays offer between 72 and 96 pixels per inch, iPhoney looks about twice the size of an actual iPhone, according to the folks at Marketcircle. It requires Mac OS X 10.4.7 or higher.
