The simulator now also supports geolocation, so you can test it in your app, and read out longitude and latitude values.Ĭoming soon: an enhancement that lets you specify the geolocation to provide!

We do things in the open, and we share our progress.
We discussed whether we should talk about this new version yet, since it’s a bit rough around the edges, but we decided to give it a go for two reasons: Now, moving forward, we’d like to present and introduce you to a preview of the upcoming 3.0 version! We’ve made a lot of progress since, and version 2.0 came out about a month ago ( latest official version). Three months ago we were proud to release the 1.0 version of the Firefox OS Simulator.
