The emulators (or simulators) you get for iOS and Android are great and many times you can do all of your coding with just the emulator. But, don't forget the physical device needs to be tested too. In this week's Minute of Overpass, I tell you about some times I didn't do proper device testing (and how that failed) and some tools you can use to help you do it for your apps.

Now it's one thing as a software developer or as an app developer, it's easy to use like an emulator or a simulator and just do everything on the desktop. In fact, you can even make an Android app using the simulator alone and never have to actually have an Android device. However, the problem with that is that as soon as you get on an actual device, a lot of times you run into trouble, so it's best to have physical devices around to test on. The reason why I say testing on a device is important 'cause if you've ever done anything where you've released an app and haven't tested it on ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-WNDx3evuM

And I run Overpass. Overpass is a mobile app development agency based in Oxfordshire in the UK. I started it back in 2004 before there were even app stores! Now, the company is myself and a small team of designers and developers. We outsource what we can and try to keep costs low, but I still code here and there. My apps have been downloaded tens of millions of times globally and I have lived the ups and downs of being an app developer. I started creating videos back in 2014 and have created over a thousand videos since. If you can't tell, I can talk about apps all day. We also talk about running a small business and self-improvement on this channel. If you need an app created, my company can help you. Or... If you are an app developer, like most of the viewers on this channel, I hope our shared experiences will help you out too. There is nothing more satisfying than making money from apps.

Occasionally, people tell me their app ideas and how much they are willing to spend. While I appreciate their confidence and zeal, I also fear for their financial well-being. And I think taking out a long-term loan to create their app idea is a big mistake. The app market is too unpredictable for that. This week, I talk about how my apps are financed and my views on making safe decisions when creating an app. For more like this, visit http://www.overpass.co.uk. ?
