I want to check device id for my iPhone simulator application. But not using codebase. I know the way how to do with codebase, using UIDevice instance.

Is there any

Answer 1

As so often, there is a Xcode terminal tool for that (part of the Xcode tools) see xcrun manpage

xcrun simctl list | egrep '(Booted)'

lists only all booted (could be more than one) Simulators (remove | egrep '(Booted)' to see them all).

UIID results like

 iPhone 6 Plus (AAAABD40-9DE6-44B7-A4EA-B34ABCDEFCA6) (Booted)

you can then lookup a folder in ~/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Deviceson your Mac and find all the "belongings" of that particular Simulator
