## The --default-capabilities flag
Appium 1.5 does away with most CLI flags that existed previously; the remainder can be converted into JSON and made part of the `--default-capabilities` flag. For example:
```
# raw JSON as an argument
--default-capabilities '{"app": "myapp.app", "deviceName": "iPhone Simulator"}'
# or the name of a JSON file
--default-capabilities /path/to/file.json
```
**Windows users** will need to escape the quotes in JSON passed on the command line: `--default-capabilities "{\"app\": \"myapp.app\"}"`
