Image Playground not available on simulator

I am using the iPhone 17 Pro simulator that was included with Xcode 26.0.1. My Mac is running macOS 26. When I started the simulator for the first time I got the "Ready for Apple Intelligence" notification but when I access Image Playground in my app it says it is not available on this iPhone. Any solution to get it working on the simulator?

Hi @rmahmud28,

Image Playground is only available on physical devices. Simulators cannot run Image Playground, even if Apple Intelligence is enabled in that simulator.

Best,
