Device Conditions
Thermal state condition
Raises thermal state to — fair, serious, or critical
So you can reliably
• Understand app behavior under these elevated states
• Debug and verify your handling of thermal state changes
The device does not actually get warmer
Device Conditions
Network link condition
Real world profiles simulating network conditions
• High latency
• Low bandwidth
• High packet loss
• Slow DNS response
So you can reliably
• Understand and debug app behavior under various network conditions
