iOS simulator scaled bug

iOS 8 and Xcode 6 Simulator Display Out of Alignment

Also now mentioned in the Xcode 6.2 beta 3 Release Notes:

Apps running in the iOS Simulator may not display correctly on a Mac
with Retina display running OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 beta. (19079907)

iOS simulator scaled bug

Finally, I got the reason why this bug appears at work and not at home :)

Because at work I don't have external display (monitor), but at home (DELL, non-retina off course)

If you want this bug not to appear, just connect your macbook to external non-retina monitor. Then you may work fine, run simulator in macbook retina display, also in external monitor display, while Apple hard works to fix this bug in OS X.

Can't scale device window in iOS Simulator

The options will only be there if your screen is not large enough to show the window at 100%.

Xcode 9 - Simulator: Screenshots taken are not of correct resolution for ItunesConnect / AppStore Connect

In Xcode 9.1, go to Simulator Menu > Debug > Optimize Rendering for Window Scale.
disable this option, now the screenshots will be in the right size (resolution).
