iPhone on Fitbit simulator

[YuriyG]

If I am not mistaken phone portion of the Fitbit OS Simulator is based on Chromium, right?  Which means companions developed on the simulator are guaranteed to work only on Android devices. 

It would be great if the Simulator could switch to something like WKWebView as well to simulate an iOS device. There have been many scenarios where things would work on Android and fail on iPhone.

Hi @YuriyG - the companion should run the same on iPhone or Android as it's implemented in the Fitbit App, unless there is a bug.

There are differences in the way JavaScript in executed on iPhone and Android. For example my apps and faces that use this library work perfectly fine on Android and simulator, but fail on iPhone.

@YuriyG- sometimes a Fitbit App logout and restart of the phone and watch helps.

Have had interference at times with the Simulator running tests at the same time as the phone, in the past.

These issues originally came from users, who don't have simulators, and whose phones are in perfect sync with the watch. The companion code works on Android phones and fails on iPhones.
