You should be able to use an Android emulator, or screencast from your phone if you want. I think Windows 11 supports native Android apps? But who in their right mind is using Windows anymore...
So I should be using Linux? I downloaded Ubuntu to a virtual system I created in Hyper-V, and was using it a bit. I have lots of experiences supporting UNIX systems, primarily AIX, so maybe I should go that way.
It's up to you, but supporting anything Microsoft does feels like I'm supporting the worst of humanity these days. Personally I like linux now that I've adjusted to it as an everyday OS.
And I think I just figured out why it isn't on Android... there are very few iOS emulators and the only ones I know of are cloud based an a pain in the ass to deal with. Could be something to it...
It shouldn't, there's no reason it can't be run in a browser. Except they don't want it to. I don't think this Apple exclusive was an accident. As the most controlled option, it feels like it was chosen with intent. Anyone can spin up an emulator instance or two. Or even 6-8 if you've got a powerful PC. Much easier to bot that way.
THey fully intend to release it for android, likely the "apple exclusive" was simply to get the app pushed out to one user base as soon as possible, not to restrict access to emulators, of which only a very very tiny minority of people would know how to do. I doubt that thought even crossed the developers minds.
It's not the average Joe they'd have to worry about. It's those with technical prowess and malicious intent. Apple's stuff is much harder to mess with by design.
Apple user. Still trying to get on. Open the floodgates!
Same here. My email said I was only 80k+ in queue, app says 160k+. Haven't heard a thing since.
I’ve been waiting on my Apple for 2 weeks. I hear it’s actually up and running for mythical creatures, somewhere?
I want to be able to get to it from my pc. I don't use phone apps much.

Why should it need an emulator, though? Can't it be designed for the most popular operating system?

An Army of Digital Soldiers are standing by...
Shit - I’m on iPhone and still stuck at about #183,000. What the heck is going on?
Not sure. I was 148,000. I saw some post here were someone with a higher number made it in before some that had lower numbers. Soon my friend…soon!
Signed up at 3am day of launch and STILL waiting. You aren’t missing much.
