I created first flutter app on Mac.
but I can't build it on iOS simulator. when I build it; an iOS simulator will run. and wait.
vs Code say to me;
-Cannot launch without an active device
-Failed to launch iOS Simulator: Error: Emulator didn't connect within 60 seconds
IDE : vs Code
my Macbook : MacBook Pro 2011 early
macOs version : high Sierra
flutter version : 13.8
xcode version : 9.4

Open Xcode and go to preferences - > locations - > Command Line Tools and select Xcode 10 or above

Which device do you use as a Simulator? From the docs:
Make sure your simulator is using a 64-bit device (iPhone 5s or later) by checking the settings in the simulator’s Hardware > Device menu.
Run flutter doctor. Are there any errors?

I have the same problem. Flutter doesn't see any simulators. Flutter required now Xcode 10.2 minimum. You can't run 10.2 on high sierra, therefore use flatter.
Solution 4:[4]
at the first run bellow command
sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
and then
sudo xcodebuild -runFirstLaunch
after than run "flutter devices" now you see ios simulators if running

I had many problems with flutter stable version before, Try to change it to Dev version
Solution 6:[6]
If you have multiple Xcode and don't have Xcode With default name "Xcode", this problem may occur. Try to rename one of xcode to "Xcode"
Solution 7:[7]
The major issue is with XCode. To quickly fix the issue, open project on XCode(make sure you choose the /ios path inside your flutter project.) and Open Preferences. On preferences dialog, go to Location and choose a command line tool from given option. Restart your IDE.

In my case (with VS Code) I just had to quit the simulator app in my dock and select the simulator again.
