Where did iOS Simulator go after Xcode 4.3.1?

I sometimes need to run iOS Simulator independent of Xcode to test on Safari. I used to be able to just look for it in Spotlight and run it from there. But ever since I upgraded to Xcode 4.3.1, Spotlight can no longer find it. Any idea where it went?

Launch the simulator from Xcode and when it appears in your dock, right click it and select keep in dock.

The simulator can also be launched directly from Finder:

/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/Applications/iPhone\ Simulator.app

Edit: I don't know if this has been here the whole time, but I just discovered that you can also launch the simulator by right clicking Xcode's icon in your dock >> Open Developer Tool >> iOS Simulator.
