What do I need to use this MCP server?

You need a Mac running macOS with iPhone Mirroring enabled and an iPhone connected. The server communicates with the mirrored iPhone session to send tap, swipe, type, and screenshot commands.

Can I use this for automated iOS app testing?

Yes. You can take screenshots to verify UI state, tap buttons, swipe through screens, and type input—making it suitable for scripted testing workflows and demo automation.

Does this work with any iPhone or only specific models?

It works with any iPhone that supports macOS iPhone Mirroring (iOS 17.1+). The server controls whatever iPhone is currently mirrored on your Mac.

How do I install and start using it?

Run `npx iphone-mirroir-mcp@0.4.1` to install and launch the server. It communicates via stdio, so connect it to your MCP client and start sending commands.

What's the difference between this and Xcode's UI testing tools?

This server controls a real, mirrored iPhone through natural interaction commands (tap, swipe, type) rather than XCTest code. It's lighter-weight for demos and quick automation but lacks the deep app introspection of Xcode testing.
