I think it would be a huge time saver to implement a feature which we can define our own custom video/image in the simulator playback while testing in the browser. I just think this would really help accelerate the back and forth during coding, as opposed to having to reach for my device to test on every time.

Please seriously consider!

Thank you.

Thanks for you suggestion! I agree and I think the developer experience would really benefit from this. 🙂
