Change the default simulator on Xcode 12.5

It's a small thing, but every time I open my current Xcode project the default iOS device to run my app on is my phone. Is there a way to change it to one of the simulators? i.e. iPhone Pro 11?

I agree; it gets annoying to do the same thing over and over again. Try going Product/Destination/Choose Destination menu and selecting the device you'd like to be your default.

  • That was so stupidly simple that I'm embarrassed. But thank you.

  • Actually it doesn't stick Keeps going back to phone

  • I notice this too. It keep reverting back to the ipod touch.
