I have a Swift 5 app that I would like to test on an iPad simulator but the only iPad simulator available is iPad (8th generation). I have a 5th generation iPad which is running iPadOS 15.4 which is presumably capable of running a Swift 5 app but its simulator does not appear in the list of possible iOS simulators.
Which Xcode version do you use ?
On Xcode 13.3, I get iPad 9th generation. And iOS 15.4.
To add a new Simulator
From Xcode:
Click the "+" button (at the bottom-left)
e.g.
Click the "Create" button, to add the new Simulator
I'm using XCode 12.3 so the highest iOS version is 14.3 rather than 15.4 but the procedure above worked OK - thanks
On Xcode 12;3, no iOS 15.4 simulator. Need to upgrade to Xcode 13.3.
