The iOS 17 simulator does not respond at all when I try to interact with it. The simulator is not frozen as I can still control appearance and launch apps via the right sidebar. Things like the home button and clicking on the screen simply don’t work.
I am using Xcode 27 beta 6.

I am seeing the same issue with Xcode 27 RC.
Does anyone know how to bypass it, or do we have to wait for the official update?
Same issue in the final release of Xcode 27.
I have this problem since the first version of Device Hub and it seems Apple doesn't care about this, anyway my only workaround is to download an old version of Xcode, before Xcode 27 and Device Hub, and go into the package and use the old Simulator app to open the iOS 17 simulators.
To note that you have to start the simulator FROM the Simulator app, if you start it from Device Hub it will not work either way.
We have the same issue too, we're trying to test on old iOS versions (e.g. iOS 17.5) but we're unable to do cause touch is not working when the simulator running, so we cannot test our app.
