Programmatically detect if app is being run on device or simulator

I'd like to know whether my app is being run on device or simulator at run time. Is there a way to detect this?

Reason being to test bluetooth api with simulator: http://volcore.limbicsoft.com/2009/09/iphone-os-31-gamekit-pt-1-woooohooo.html

Solution 
  • #if TARGET_OS_SIMULATOR

//Simulator

#else

// Device

#endif
