How to check device id of iPhone simulator?
As so often, there is a Xcode terminal tool for that (part of the Xcode tools) see xcrun manpage
xcrun simctl list | egrep '(Booted)'
lists only all booted (could be more than one) Simulators
(remove | egrep '(Booted)'
to see them all).
UIID results like
iPhone 6 Plus (AAAABD40-9DE6-44B7-A4EA-B34ABCDEFCA6) (Booted)
you can then lookup a folder in ~/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices
on your Mac and find all the "belongings" of that particular Simulator
EDIT: See other answers for the newer ways to view UDIDs for CoreSimulator
-based simulators.
instruments -s devices
xcrun simctl list
- From Xcode: Window -> Devices and Simulators -> Simulators.
The
Identifier
value is the UDID.
From 2011:
Is the iPhone Simulator UDID unique for each installed instance?
This answer should be what you want. Look at System Profiler on your mac and the id is there. I just tested on my machine and the IDs match.
This is the exact Terminal command you can enter to view it:
system_profiler SPHardwareDataType
Try this
instruments -s devices
