Where does the iOS Simulator save screen shots?

I can't find iOS simulator screenshots (supposedly created using cmd+S) since updating to Xcode 4.3 (running on 10.7.3 Lion).

They aren't in ~Library/Application Support/Developer/Shared/Xcode/Screenshots.

Presumably they moved when Xcode moved from Developer, but Spotlight can't tell me where they are either.

Solution

  • iOS Simulator screen shots are saved to your desktop (~/Desktop). The file names are of the form iOS Simulator Screen shot Feb 28, 2012 12.16.23 PM.png.

    You can also choose Edit > Copy Screen (default shortcut: ⌃⌘C) to copy the screen shot directly to your clipboard.
