iOS Simulators List - Naming Scheme

Hi everyone, I had a quick question regarding how the devices are named under iOS Simulators.


Typically, I expect the naming scheme to look like:


iPad 2 (9.0)

iPad 2 (9.2)

iPad Air (9.0)

iPad Air (9.2)

iPad Air 2 (9.0)

iPad Air 2 (9.0)


And so on, and then when it gets to iPhone:


iPhone 4s (9.0)

iPhone 4s (9.2)

iPhone 5 (9.0)

iPhone 5 (9.2)


And so on.


But what I'm seeing is the device type and then the device ID, so it looks like:


iPhone 4s (3b1a......)

iPhone 4s (5d3e......)


I was wondering what would cause this. Is it a setting I can change ? Or is this happening because both devices are running the same iOS version so it does this to differentiate ? I ask because it doesn't seem to happen on my MacBook Pro but it is happening on my iMac. I tried reinstaling both Xcode and the simuators but this issue persists.

You're not the first to see that...suspect it's a bug, not a setting. Which version Xcode are you on? Did you rename Xcode or move it some place besides /Applications? How many Xcodes are installed?
