Feature Request: Native iOS & Android Simulator in Replit

Hi Replit team,

I’m building a React Native / Expo mobile app on Replit and I love the platform — but I’m missing one critical feature: a native iOS and Android simulator directly in the browser.

Platforms like rork.com already offer this, and it makes mobile development significantly faster and more enjoyable. Being able to preview my app in a real mobile simulator without leaving the IDE would be a game-changer.

Replit already has an excellent infrastructure — adding a built-in mobile simulator (even a basic one powered by open-source tools like Android emulator or iOS Simulator via cloud macOS) would make it the go-to platform for mobile developers.

Please consider adding this. It would attract a huge wave of React Native / Flutter / Expo developers to the platform.

Thank you!
