Can I access the App Store from within the iOS Simulator?


iphone ios xcode app-store

It's a simulator not an emulator. Even if there was an App Store in the Simulator, none of the apps in the store would work since they are compiled for ARM CPUs while the Simulator runs x86 code.

Sorry it is not available! The simulator will only allow you to install programs from xCode. I am not sure why they restrict this - but I am also not sure why you would want to use the Simulator for this purpose.

Note: You cannot install apps from the App Store in simulation environments.
