FAQ
## Frequently asked questions about Apple iPhone 8

Everything you need to know about running real iPhone 8 tests in the TestingBot cloud.

When was the Apple iPhone 8 released and is it still worth testing on in 2026?

Apple released the Apple iPhone 8 in 2017, roughly 9 years ago. It mostly covers legacy regression: verify that your minimum supported iOS still launches and that basic flows work. Good for accessibility and low-end performance budgets.

Which iOS versions can I test on Apple iPhone 8?

On TestingBot you can run iPhone 8 sessions across iOS 11 through iOS 16. Pin a specific iOS version in your Appium capabilities or pick one when starting a manual session.

What artifacts do I get from a Apple iPhone 8 test run?

Every iPhone 8 session produces a full video recording, per-step screenshots, Appium server logs, device console logs, network HAR (when enabled) and a downloadable session report.

Can I run XCUITest on Apple iPhone 8 without a Mac?

Yes. Upload a compiled .ipa and TestingBot runs [XCUITest](https://testingbot.com/features/automation/xcuitest) on a real iPhone 8 from any CI runner. No local Xcode, no provisioning juggling on your end.

Can I use live, manual testing on Apple iPhone 8 too?

Yes. [Live testing](https://testingbot.com/features/manual-mobile-testing) hands you an interactive iPhone 8 in your browser. Tap, type, scroll, take screenshots and capture bug reports without writing code.

Is the Apple iPhone 8 on TestingBot a real device or a simulator?

It is a real, physical iPhone 8. TestingBot hosts unmodified, retail-spec Apple iPhone 8 units in an EU datacenter. You're remote-controlling actual hardware: real Mobile Safari, real touch input, real iOS, real GPU and CPU behavior. No emulator, no jailbreak.

Can I test Mobile Safari and native iOS apps on Apple iPhone 8?

Both. A single iPhone 8 session can switch between Mobile Safari (responsive and web testing) and your installed .ipa for native app automation. Upload an .ipa once and reuse it across runs.

How fast does a Apple iPhone 8 session start?

A fresh iPhone 8 session is usually available within seconds. We allocate from a warm pool, so your test job doesn't wait on a cold boot.
