How can I test multiple iOS versions in the Simulator? I can only seem to test iOS 4.1. I would like to be able to test 3.x versions in the simulator as well.
To run an older iOS simulator, you must choose an older iOS version in the "iOS Deployment Target" build setting popup. Only then will the "Overview" popup offer older Simulators: back to 4.0 for iPhone and to 3.2 for iPad.
Xcode is Apple's integrated development environment (IDE) for macOS, used to develop software for macOS, iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, and tvOS. It was initially released in late 2003; the latest stable release is version 13.4. 1, released on June 2, 2022, via the Mac App Store with macOS Monterey.

Cocoa with Love has a good post on how to do this
To allow simulation in 3.1.3, you must install an old version of Xcode. If you are a registered iPhone developer, you can download Xcode 3.1.4 for Leopard with iPhone SDK 3.1.3 or Xcode 3.1.4 for Snow Leopard with iPhone SDK 3.1.3. Be careful to install these in a different location to your Xcode 3.2.3 with iOS3.2/iOS4 (either select a different hard disk or rename your existing /Developer directory before you install).
In the "hardware" menu are options to change the device and the version.
