Description

I have the iPod touch (7th generation) simulator with iOS 15.2 installed. This is available from XCode simulators and properly returned by "xcrun simctl list devices". If I run "ti info" the iPod touch simulator is not on the list and I cannot run the app on it.

Issue moved to Ti CLI: tidev/titanium-cli#538

Probably the ipod family is not recognized and then skipped

// from Simulator.js
var familyRE = /^(iphone|ipad|ios|watch|watchos)$/;

@alexlarocca I think you're on the right track there, I think editing this regex and ensuring the iPod family gets assigned to the right simType here should have the iPod sims show up in ti info, I'm not sure whether there would then be extra work to ensure the build functions correctly

[alexlarocca]

@ewanharris I made what you suggested and now "ti info" returns the ipod touch. Unfortunately "ti build" still does not work.
