Could not find iPhone X simulator
react-native run-ios
Do the following to solve this
open ./node_modules/react-native/local-cli/runIOS/findMatchingSimulator.js
This is how this file will look
// Making sure the version of the simulator is an iOS or tvOS (Removes Apple Watch, etc)
if (!version.startsWith('iOS') && !version.startsWith('tvOS')) {
continue;
}
Let's change it to
// Making sure the version of the simulator is an iOS or tvOS (Removes Apple Watch, etc)
/*
if (!version.startsWith('iOS') && !version.startsWith('tvOS')) {
continue;
}*/
if (!version.startsWith('com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS') && !version.startsWith('com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.tvOS')) {
continue;
}
and then run react-native run-ios.
Solved !!
