Shake event on iOS simulator

[ethan-drivr]

I'm using ShakeDetector with default options and it works perfectly on my iPhone. It doesn't seem to detect "shakes" on the iOS simulator (Simulator menu: Device/Shake.) It there anything I can do to make this work?

any updates ?

Hello, I am encountering the same issue. The shakes are not detected on the iOS simulator (Simulator menu: Device/Shake)

I was running into this too, and took a look at sensors_plus, which is used by this package. There's nothing in its documentation for AccelerometerEvent that suggests it shouldn't work with the simulator, but I came across this:

// NOTE: The accelerometer events are not returned on iOS simulators.

I'm guessing that this issue is unlikely to be resolved as long as sensors_plus doesn't support getting the event from the simulator.

As @frankpape said it's because accelerometer methods are unimplemented.

My error log hint to the same thing:
