LC 9.0.0 dp8 won't launch iOS simulator

[panagiotis merakos]

Hi Bill,

In LC 9dp7 (or dp8, not 100% sure), we removed support for 32bit
simulators. This means that if your simulator is set to iPhone SE or
iPhone5, the standalone will not launch. So you have to choose a 64bit
simulator (iphone6 and above).

Best regards,
Panos
