Developers can use emulators and simulators for rapid prototyping, mockups, and unit testing in the early phases of developing mobile apps. Emulators and simulators work well in a virtual setting because they are simple to use, which is perfect for anyone who need to quickly test mobile device apps.
Simulating an environment to replicate the operation and configuration of a different target device is known as simulation. A simulator is employed for "analysis and research" as opposed to emulation. By utilizing a simulator, you can produce a digital setting that resembles the actual target device. In the end, the simulation method demonstrates how the device would operate in the real world. A simulator, however, doesn't quite replicate activity in the actual world.
Emulation is the process of enabling a computer system (the host) to mimic the hardware and software features of another target device (the guest).
Emulators are essentially used as “substitutes”, which replaces the original device for real use.
