Simera is a focused macOS menu bar utility that brings your Mac’s live camera into iOS Simulator apps. Enable it with one click, then test photo and video capture using the camera code you already have. It supports AVFoundation, UIImagePickerController, and common Flutter camera and image picker integrations. No SDK or project changes required. Includes a 7-day trial, a $5.99 lifetime license, and 10 free lifetime licenses for early Product Hunt testers.

Hi Product Hunt! 👋
I built Simera because I kept reaching the photo capture part of iOS apps and hitting the same wall: the camera flow was difficult to test properly in the Simulator.
I tried broader Simulator tools, but I wanted something much simpler. Open a menu bar app, enable the camera, then return to your project. No SDK, no test-only code, and no swapping in sample images.
Simera sends your Mac’s live camera into supported native iOS and Flutter camera flows while keeping everything local.
This is the first public release, so I would genuinely appreciate feedback, especially about camera packages and workflows I have not tested yet.
I’m also giving away 10 free lifetime licenses to Product Hunt users willing to test Simera and share honest feedback. Leave a comment telling me whether you use native iOS or Flutter, and I’ll send selected testers a private 100% discount checkout link. No purchase or upvote is required.
Thanks for checking it out!
