Can I set the default simulator for new projects in Xcode 7.1 or latest?

xcode

I've been making a ton of new projects as I'm learning Swift. My development is all on my laptop, so I hate using the default 6s Plus simulator, since the window is too big to easily see. Is there a way to change the default simulator to be a different one for new projects?

This binary is similar to the adb for Android. To check all available options of simctl enter the below-mentioned command in the terminal.
