Summary
Frida 17.4+ introduced the Simmy backend, which exposes iOS Simulators as auto-discovered devices via CoreSimulator.framework.
These devices appear with
type: "remote"and a UUID-style device ID, making them indistinguishable from manually-added remote frida-server connections in the UI.This PR detects simulator devices by matching their UDID format and:
No changes to attach/spawn/script injection — the Simmy backend handles all of that transparently.
Changes
frida_manager.py: Detect simulators via UDID regex, addis_simulatorfield, adjust sort orderscript.js: Display "(simulator)" label in dropdown, add badge in device infostyles.css: Add simulator badge style
