iOS模拟器版本

Question

I tried Appium iOS tutorial and ran the example successfully. I noticed the UICatalog6.1.app runs on iOS simulator with title "iPhone 6/iOS 8.2" on the top of the simulator.

However the title is "iPhone 6/iOS 9.0" when I run the app developed by myself from Xcode. I am wondering which part controls to use different version of iOS simulator?

Answer 1

When you install Xcode, you automatically get the most recent version of the simulators. However, if you would like to define additional simulators with older iOS versions, you can.

In Xcode, go to Window (on the tool bar), and select Devices. There, you can see a list of all of your current devices and all of your currently setup simulators. If you click the plus on the lower left corner of the screen, you'll get to this screen:

Here, you can select the device you'd like to use for the simulator and its iOS version. By default, you'll only have the most recent version of iOS, but if you'd like to add older versions, just select 'Download more simulators' and you'll be given the option to download older versions and use them for testing.

Once you've set up the new simulator, you'll be able to select it from the list of available devices to run your app on. Good Luck!
