Hello
On Nov 11, 2025 I upgraded Xcode to 17B100
I found instructions to install it on an external drive because the old way of doing it (install to /Applications and move it to the desired location) didn't work.
I downloaded the dmg, moved it to the external drive and the install worked
I now have a usable Xcode sitting on my external drive
The problem is, there are no simulators and the normal method of downloading them does not work.
How do I install simulators (preferably on my external drive) for use by my externally installed Xcode (same drive)?
Selecting any option will automatically load the page

as shown from the quote:
"The 5.5-inch iPhone, 4.7-inch iPhone, 4-inch iPhone, and 3.5-inch iPhone screenshots do not show the current version of the app in use. Screenshots should highlight the app's core concept to help users understand the app’s functionality and value. "
According to Google the last 3.5 inch iPhone was retired in 2017.
Do I really need to provide screenshots or was this a cut/paste mistake?
