How do I know if my device supports Xcode?

Right-click on the Xcode. app icon and then, click on Show Package Content. Follow the same path to the DeviceSupport folder for the old Xcode.

iOS 12 is only supported by the beta of Xcode 10 or higher.

If you want to use your iPhone 8 with this iOS version (NOT RECOMMENDED) with your Xcode 9.4 you can try to download the last beta of Xcode 10 and after connecting the iPhone to the mac go to this folder:

/Applications/Xcode10.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport

You can see the iOS version folder of the iPhone, copy and past it to the same location in your Xcode 9.4 folder.

After this you should be able to deploy to your iPhone 8.

The link provided by Yatko is not supporting the newest iOS 12 versions (public release).

This repository has more iOS versions to offer: https://github.com/iGhibli/iOS-DeviceSupport

Copy the files to the same path as described by Kerberos.
