The process I use: One time process for each Xcode version/update: Launch Xcode > Open the Simulator(s) that I want to use. Add the Simulator app(s) to the dock — Right Click on the Simulator Icon in the Dock while it’s open and choose “Keep in dock”. Quit Xcode.
From then on, whenever I’m working on an iOS app, I launch the simulator from the dock and wait until it fully loads before testing from LC, no need to launch Xcode and no messages from LC saying the simulator is taking too long to load. It’s still not a quick process until the simulator is open, but it does seem more reliable to me. When you update to the next version of Xcode, it is necessary to clean out the old simulators from the dock and make new Dock entries, but that’s not too much hassle in comparison to the time saving.
