6<p>You can use Safari to debug the iOS version of your app when using <a href=https://trac.webkit.org/wiki/JavaScriptCore target=_blank rel="noopener noreferrer">JavaScriptCore</a> (JSC) as your app's runtime.</p>
7<ol>
8<li><strong>Physical devices only</strong>: Open the Settings app, and navigate to Safari > Advanced, and make sure "Web Inspector" is turned on.</li>
9<li>On your Mac, open Safari and enable the Develop menu. This can be found under Safari > Settings..., then the Advanced tab, then selecting "Show features for web developers".</li>
10<li>Find your device under the Develop menu, and select the "JSContext" item from the submenu. This will open Safari's Web Inspector, which includes Console and Sources panels similar to Chrome DevTools.</li>
