iOS Emulator for Your Android Device

Cider, also known as the APK Cycada, is a free emulator designed to make your Android device look like an Apple device. The iOS interface is visually different from the Android interface, so if you’re missing the former or would like to try it without having to buy an Apple device, then this utility can help. As an iOS emulator, Cider changes not only the visual aesthetics but also the apps you can use with your Android device. You can now use some iOS-exclusive apps on your phone or tablet—and there’s no need to pay to make them run on your device. This APK is lightweight, as well, and won’t bog down your Android.
