I am trying to change a form that includes credit card input details so that when viewed on iOS it will give the user the option of scanning their credit card details (see below):

enter image description here

However, the solution I think should work (see here) isn't showing the scan card option when I open the page in safari on XCode iOS Simulator so I want to know:

  1. Should I expect the Simulator to work exactly like an actual device (I know some camera based things do not work)?
  2. If so, what steps I need to take in order to get it working?
  3. If not possible, what alternative routes might there be to testing whether the scan card feature is working for my form.

    Since the simulator doesn't have a camera, I wouldn't expect that option to show. You will need to test on a real device. – Paulw11 Mar 23 '17 at 19:27
  • Thanks @Paulw11 - that makes sense to me and is pretty much what I expected unfortunately – rjralgar Mar 23 '17 at 20:34

The Simulator does not currently provide a virtual camera.

If this is something you'd like to see, please file a bug report at https://bugreport.apple.com and request camera support be added to the Simulator.
