I don't know if this is the correct forum to post this on but I'll just do it. I want to make IOS apps on windows. I know that I could install a VM but my processor is not compatible with OSX. This is a pretty simple question that may have a complex answer. Thanks in advance.
No, Apple don't make this very easy at all. They actually want you to buy a Mac.
The development software they use for iOS development doesn't run on non-Mac boxes. You may be able to get it running technically (such as on a Hackintosh) but you'll be violating the OSX licence agreement.

I want to create app for my website,I heard that IOS app development time is less than Android thats why I want to create android app.But I have not Mac,I want to learn swift and create IOS app.Is it possible on windows?(I heard that if I use virtual box to use mac it will be illegal thats why I think they will not allow me to put my app to appstore,is not it)?
App development time is not necessarily faster for iOS than it is on Android. It all depends on what kind of app you're building, your skill level, and many other factors.
Developing iOS apps on Windows is possible but not recommended unless you really know what you're doing. I'd suggest you try building an Android app, or look into one of the many cross-platform options, like PhoneGap or Xamarin.

Is there any IDE or tools which can be install/work in Windows?
No, you can't, you need a machine with OSX in order to compile Objective-C, so unless you run a virtual machine or install OSX in your computer, you can't.
You can create an App using Appcelerator, Xamarin, etc, but it won't be native Objective-C.

Develop iPhone app without a Mac? [duplicate]

I want to create a mobile application for iPhone in Objective-C. The app should be equipped with a graphical user interface.
The problem is that I don't have a Mac computer so I have no access to the Xcode environment.
Is there any possibility to build my project with an online service (for example on a virtual server, remote control etc.) or can I use tools completely under Windows?
VirtualMacOSX.com have an offer for xCode development, from (as of now) $10 a month.
I am sure others have too.
Although not optimal you can run mac osx on vmware (on your windows machine), then install xcode on that. I did this for a while until I decided to bite the bullet and I bought a mac
Unfortunately there is no good way to do it, anyway you will need access to Mac computer (remote or physical, no difference).

iPhone emulator for Windows that allows installation of new apps [closed]

Is there any iOS emulator for Windows? I need one instead of the buying a macbook, just for that.I would like my tester to use it instead of buying a macbook.
Sorry for the noob question.
Nope, the only official way is to buy an Mac for development. There's a thing called hackintosh, but I do not recommend installing software without licence for using it. Piracy is bad. Buy a Mac.
Hackintosh will help you :)
However if you are going to do programming on iOS/Mac: buy Mac ;)

hi there, any way to build iOS apps only with windows or linux?
i know there are some ways to get mac os started on a VM, but i mean only on win/linux.
i know there is some plattform like phonegap, but there you need a mac to build your apps too.
any other ways?
There are some alternatives, but afaik there are no ways for pure obj-c/cocoa development. See here:
