iPhone Simulator location

**Xcode 6** -> `/Users/{YOUR NAME}/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/{DEVICE ID}/data/Containers/Data/Application/{APPLICATION ID}/`

Or print it out in Xcode console

#if TARGET_IPHONE_SIMULATOR
NSLog(@"Documents Directory: %@", [[[NSFileManager defaultManager] URLsForDirectory:NSDocumentDirectory inDomains:NSUserDomainMask] lastObject]);
#endif

It took me a while, but I just found mine at `/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Applications/iOS\ Simulator.app`

As of Xcode 6 and iOS 8 you’ll find it here:

~/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/{cryptic number}/data/Containers/Data/Application/{cryptic number}/

or you can get it from below code execution:

NSLog(@"Documents Directory: %@", [[[NSFileManager defaultManager] URLsForDirectory:NSDocumentDirectory inDomains:NSUserDomainMask] lastObject]);

In Xcode 6, iOS Simulator.app is located in this location:

/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Applications/iOS Simulator.app

For xcode 7, you'll find it at here

`/Users/{USERNAME}/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/{CRIPTIC NUMBER}/data/Containers/Data/Application/{CRIPTIC NUMBER}/Documents/`

or execute the code below in your xcode project

Objective C

` NSLog(@"Documents Directory: %@", [[[NSFileManager defaultManager] URLsForDirectory:NSDocumentDirectory inDomains:NSUserDomainMask] lastObject]);`

Swift

`print(applicationDocumentsDirectory.path)`

On El Capitan and **Xcode 7.2** and **7.3** I found the Simulators here:
`/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Applications/`

* Simulator
* Simulator (Watch)

From xCode 8.0 the simulator .app is located in

> /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Applications

I found the easiest way to find it programmatically. Run the app and put NSLog() for [NSBundle MainBundle], it will show you the whole path of the app running in simulator.

All of these paths keep getting outdated with each Xcode release 😔. The best way I found (so far) is this ⤵︎

1. Open Xcode and launch Simulator.app
2. Simulator.app will now appear in your dock
3. Right click the app icon in the dock and select `Options > Show in Finder`
4. The app's location will appear in a Finder window
