ios - Is it possible to record actual sound on the simulator using mic

Question

Is it possible record the actual sound on the simulator using the mic.
I have created the recorder which record the sound in simulator but not recording the actual audio its just null(empty) audio.

Answer 1

The old answer for this question is now incorrect; the iOS Simulator now supports audio input/recording.

Also be warned, some online Apple dev docs still say audio input is unsupported by the simulator ("as of 8.2") even though it is with newer versions...

Edit: Screenshot from OS X 10.12 (Sierra), Xcode 9.1 (function is also available in later Xcode 8, > 8.2)
