Does iPhone 6 / 6 Plus simulator supports changing of Display Zoom mode?


How to change Display Zoom feature in iPhone 6 and 6 Plus simulators? Original iPhone 6 and 6 Plus have this feature in Settings -> Display & Brightness -> Display Zoom (View) with values Standard and Zoomed.


Solution

  • As of Xcode 12 (and perhaps earlier) Settings -> Developer -> View -> Zoomed (tap Set) will adjust the simulator to show with Display Zoom. This is helpful as the iPhone 11 Pro, iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 12, and iPhone 12 Pro all run at a previously unused resolution of 320 x 693.
