# Device simulator

You can check out how your email or email fragment is displayed on various devices and in email clients with the Simulate option.

To simulate email rendering, do the following:

  1. Click ![](@i/editor/editor-pen-icon.png on the email or email fragment card to open Editor.

  2. On the top options panel, click TEST and select Simulate:

When you use Device simulator for the first time, the Target email clients and devices pops up. By default, all available devices and email clients are selected. To narrow the list, you can clear the unnecessary boxes.

  1. Click CONTINUE:

Every next simulation involves the previously selected email clients and devices. To choose other options for email rendering, launch the Target email clients and devices pop-up. For this, click ![](@i/editor/select2.png on the top panel.

Device simulator starts generating cards in the RUNNING status. Having reached 100%, Device simulator displays the resulting cards. The simulation status changes to SUCCESS:
