I was looking for a way to easily add a link to the iOS Simulator in my ~/Applications
folder, but every explanation that worked for Mavericks seemed unnecessarily complicated to me. Here’s what I figured out myself:
- Open Xcode and launch the simulator as normal
- Control-click on the simulator icon in the dock, and select
Options → Show in Finder
- Open a terminal, and type
ln -s
- Drag the simulator icon to the terminal window
- Drag the destination for the link to the terminal window, and hit
Enter
