Websites and Apps are 2 different things altogether. If you are testing a website, use a browser. As Nancy eluded to, if your code is up to date and clear of errors you should be in the clear. I can't think of any instances where you would even still run into IE8 or earlier which used to cause issues.

For app development, use your app developer tools like Xcode. There is no need to test a browser because Apps work with in their OS and not a browser so you need to be able to test that functionality.

I was mere replying to a statement that @Ben107584 M made that Apps needed no browser. This may be true for mobile apps, but certainly not true for web apps.

To answer your question, the only app that I know of that is free of charge, https://browsershots.org/, has passed away dying of the dreaded 500 disease.

Having said that, there is much to say for using a framework like Bootstrap that has tested its code against all modern browsers. No need to do any testing of your own.

Wappler is the DMXzone-made Dreamweaver replacement and includes the best of their powerful extensions, as well as much more!
