Answer 1

In your WebView, you can specify the userAgent string… from Apple's Docs..

setCustomUserAgent:Sets the receiver’s custom user-agent string.

- (void)setCustomUserAgent:(NSString *)userAgentString

Parameters userAgentString

The custom user-agent string. The user-agent string is used by websites to identify the client browser. The custom user-agent string is used for all URLs. If nil, then the receiver constructs a user-agent string that produces the best rendering results for each URL.

As far as the actual string to set it to... how about...

Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 6_1_3 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/536.26 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/6.0 Mobile/10B329 Safari/8536.25

Answer 2

you can download the developer tools (XCode) for iPhone development which includes an iOS Simulator. You can test websites with it, too.
