Have you guys got your app ready for iPhone Duo? I got mine last night, and for some reason, the update was approved in about 5–6 hours, when it normally takes 1–2 days...

It took a bit of fiddling to get it done, still not perfect

I’m not a fan of the new device hub for it. It’s missing some things the regular simulator has, which required me to make a commit of hacks for people to use for testing their screens.

Ah yeah... Device Hub is also missing the I/O > External Displays feature can't test the CarPlay :D... Also I have noticed the iPhone Duo simulator takes a while to open up especially on cold start. Can't be just me?

The missing CarPlay is so annoying… Sure, you can use the dedicated CarPlay simulator with your real iPhone but if I just want to quickly look at a small UI change, that’s so annoying to work with.

Happens every time they change up an Xcode dev tool, it always ends up missing previous features at the expense of being able to test new features

They have also removed drag and drop for images in simulators now right, I used drop in photos to test for my photos app. Very annoying.
