how can I debug an app in ionic view from windows?
I absolutely love how I can just do ionic upload and instantly get my app on my iphone!
But how am I supposed to debug it? I'm on windows and all options I have found require to be on OSX.
1) Safari 6 remote debugging - Safari for windows was discontinued at 5.1
2) XCode - nope, on windows
3) ionic emulate ios -l -c -s nope, on windows
I have a Mac on standby listening for build requests via vs-mda-remote service from the Visual Studio Cordova Tools so I'm able to build and deploy to a live device like that, however this is super time consuming.
If this was somehow integrated with ionic view
ionic upload -l -c -s
my life would be complete. Okay okay maybe we can do without the live reload for now, but is it possible at all???
To clarify, I'm aware of ionic serve, however I'm talking about debugging ON THE PHONE using the IonicView mobile app. I have an issue that ONLY happens on the phone via IonicView app, but cannot be replicated in the browser.

I don't know why, but i thought GapDebug is much better known. GapDebug brings you all the features you need to debug your application in a very smooth and easy way. It works on Mac OS X but also on a Windows Computer.
UPDATE:
GapDebug was discontinued in 2016 with version 2.4.0 as the final release. It works for apps running on Android and iOS 9 and earlier but not on iOS 10 and up.
See Genuitec to Discontinue Development of GapDebug .
