Marketcircle has released an online simulator of the Apple iPhone screen, dubbed iPhoney.
“iPhoney is not an iPhone simulator but instead is designed for web developers who want to create 320 by 480 (or 480 by 320) websites for use with iPhone. It gives you a canvas on which to test the visual quality of your designs.”
Aside from the great name, iPhoney provides web developers with a virtual canvas to gauge how their projects will look on the iPhone. Here’s a rundown of the new iPhoney 1.1 features:
- Zoom out to see how your current pages might look while zoomed out on iPhone.
- Turn off plug-ins (including Flash, but note that they all turn off (including QuickTime).
- Specify a custom user agent string.
- Automatic updates with Sparkle, so you’ll always know if there’s a new version.
- And of course, open source code so you can contribute to iPhoney’s rapid development.
