I am developing a swift playground for ios which uses the front camera. I am developing it on macOS Xcode, but unfortunately Xcode simulators do not have camera support, so I am using a physical iPhone.

But while judging, If a physical iPhone device will not be used to test the playground, then how will the camera features be used since Xcode simulators do not have camera support?

Hi, please keep in mind that iPhones will not be used during judging, only iPads. When you submit, there’s a checkbox where you indicate what platform to run your app on (playgrounds for iPad, playgrounds for Mac, Xcode for Mac). I would suggest you pick the playgrounds for iPad option so that your project is given to a judge with an iPad.
