  • This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.

New: - Added a `Reset Keychain` quick action to the Recent Builds side window so you can clear a Simulator app's keychain without leaving RocketSim. Improved: - Build Insights now avoids unnecessary Core Data work and log reloads, improving responsiveness and reducing background churn. - App Actions settings now reuse in-memory data instead of issuing extra fetches, making the settings screen more efficient. - RocketSim Connect session lookups now happen off the main context during reconnect and new-run detection, reducing UI blocking. Fixed: - Fixed landscape MP4 recordings being generated incorrectly when using landscape orientation with device bezels. (Thanks, A. Machen!)
