BBC Emulator for iPad?

Post by thecellartroll »

From my investigations I think I already know the answer, but is there a BBC emulator that works on an iPad with no internet connection? I have a ten hour plane journey coming up and I’d like to get back into LOGO programming.

There is one for a ZX81 (or ZX80) ;-)

Unfortunately Apple’s policy makes it extremely difficult to publish an emulator that can load external files.

And you have to sort out any copyright issues with any included files or software…

This is my understanding from a few years ago.

I think jsbeeb can load local files, just don't close it.

It looks like it would but unfortunately I can’t get any kind of keyboard entry to work in Safari or Brave.

I think beeb-x is Android only.
There is a 3d virtual beeb but I don't know if that would work either.
I guess mame isn't an option.
