Simulate Iphone Safari On Mac

Hey Developers! I love web design and am trying to test out some CSS, I am currently using a MacBook Pro 13' (2020 Version), I only use Safari and I want to know if I'm able to simulate other devices like a Windows 10 PC, an Android phone, an iPhone, or an iPad. I do own an iPhone and iPad but wanted to do it all on my Mac, I've tried searching for Safari extensions to do this but so far I haven't found one. If you could give me some suggestions or a link to what I should use it would be appreciated.

Several popular web-based browser testing services make it possible to test iOS's Mobile Safari, but the best of these tools require an additional fee, have limited free features, or restrict the number of users who can use an account at the same time. Apple makes iOS testing available for free to all macOS users, with their Simulator app. Jun 02, 2015 Not sure what version of Safari was out when this answer was created. I don't see a iOS simulator in the Develop menu in Safari 11.1, but there is Responsive Design Mode. Unfortunately my company's website uses a cookie for mobile/desktop view though so this doesn't help.


Thanks,Iphone
