We have launched Using iOS Tunnel With pCloudy Desktop Assistant. We recommend our users to switch to PDA to experience ease of testing but they can use the current version if they wish to.
iOS Connect
Overview
One of the very powerful features that we added is the iOSConnect. The major challenge iOS developers had been facing was the debugging of their iOS apps because of the difficult Apple guidelines regarding building any utility. With iOSConnect, you can connect to an iOS Device which is present remotely and access the device as if the device is connected to your computer. With iOSConnect, we are bridging the gap for the iOS development lifecycle
