In iPhone Simulator, how to type the @ sign on a macbook with German keyboard? [closed]

Question in the topic. I couldn't find anything in google. Friend of mine has same problem:

When running an app in the iPhone Simulator and I want to type an email address into a text field, I can't do this using the normal MacBook's keyboard. When I use the normal way to type the @ sign (Alt+L), what I get in the simulator is the mathematical negation symbol (¬) instead of @.

My keyboard settings in the Mac are correct otherwise.

As you can see, the @ sign is located on the L key, which also works when working e.g. in a text editor on the Mac: Here is a photo of my MacBook's keyboard

When holding down the Alt key, the simulation of a pinch-gesture is started. Maybe it has to do with this functionality. Can I assign this feature to another key?

Try shift+2 you can also change the keyboard on the simulator to german in the settings and try again. And u can try using the mouse when the keyboard pops up on the simulator.
