Setting up simulators

“

- [Instructor] I also want to give you a brief tip about the simulators. If you're working with a Trackpad, the default iPhone X model simulators have a terrible time showing the notification manager, something we'll be doing frequently. Just like the iPhone XR I have up here, you have to pull down from just below the notch right here like that. I strongly suggest using a mouse or using one of the earlier simulators, like iPhone 8, because Trackpads really have a hard time hitting just the right spot up here. For push notifications, and for what we'll be doing on the Apple Watch, you cannot use a simulator. You'll also need some live devices to test those.
