How to add video to iphone simulator

Question

Can anyone tell me how to add video the iPhone simulator so that I can test some apps I am working on? Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

I did the same as you do with images, drag dropped the video onto the iOS simulator not just photo's app but any app can be running on it at the time you drag drop.

Step 1: Drag drop.

Step 2: iOS simulator opens up safari to play the video file.

Step 3: Click on the share icon to get the Save Video option in the action's list.

But clicking on Save Video action for so many times nothing happens and nothing gets added to the albums. Any ideas? Even tried copy pasting the video file to the simulator's DCIM path.
