How do I connect my iPhone to simulator?

How do you use the iPhone simulator app?

To run your app in Simulator, choose an iOS simulator—for example, iPhone 6 Plus, iPad Air, or iPhone 6 + Apple Watch - 38mm—from the Xcode scheme pop-up menu, and click Run. Xcode builds your project and then launches the most recent version of your app running in Simulator on your Mac screen, as shown in Figure 1-1.

How do I open the debugger on iPhone simulator?

You'll need to go to Settings > Advanced and check the Show Debug Menu option. Then you'll see the option to open the web inspector for the Simulator right from that menu. With the Web Inspector open, you can debug inside the Simulator just like you could right in a desktop browser with DevTools.

Where does the iPhone simulator store its data?

type: ~/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator.


The iOS Simulator uses the host machine network so you should be able to just use localhost or your machines IP address, whichever IP your web service is listening on.


In swift 5 just call:

http://localhost:<port>/file_path 

but you will need to add this part to the project Info.plist.

<key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key>
<dict>
    <key>NSAllowsArbitraryLoads</key>
        <true/>
</dict>  

Otherwise this error is going to happen.

Cannot start load of Task <xx-xx>.<x> since it does not conform to ATS policy.
