How to install IPA in ios simulator?

Viewed 294

I build one .ipa after using Xcode archive then distribute as ad hoc Normally I copy this to a real ios device but today it is failing, says "failed to install"

The problem is that using xcode -> window -> Devices and simulators does not show me the running simulator.

I have one running ios simulator but i cannot see it there so don't know how to copy my ipa into it

It is my understanding that .ipa's are only meant for physical devices. For the simulator I think you need to use the .app file. You might have to unzip something first.

Hope it helps
