Answer 1

The iPhone simulator brightness is not adjustable, you have to try in a real device!

Answer 2

The iPhone simulator is not a hardware simulator. It simulates some of the hardware functions but mostly it is a simulator for iOS. You will need to register a device and test to be able to confirm if your code works properly.
