Simulating bad network on iPhone

Some bugs only popup or become visible when the users have a very bad connection. Luckily for us iOS developers, there is an easy solution to simulate this kind of issues. On your iPhone, just follow the instructions below:

  • Go to Settings
  • Tap on the Developer option
  • Tap on Network Link Conditioner
Possible options
100% Loss
3G
DSL
Edge
High Latency DNS
Footer row
Very Bad Network
Wifi

Happy testing! Make sure to disable Network Link Conditioner once your debugging is done. ;-)
