Xcode 6: Keyboard Does Not Show Up in Simulator

How do I type using my keyboard on the iphone simulator?

Try trashing the iPhone Simulator preferences file. When my iPhone Simulator stopped responding to keystrokes, this fixed it.

1. Quit the simulator.
2. Go to finder and press (command+shift+G) then navigate ~/Library/Preferences.
3. Move com.apple.iphonesimulator.plist to the trash.
4. Try launching your iPhone app in the simulator again.

when you run your app, opens automatically the iOS Simulator, so .. you select, from the menu, Hardware>Keyboard>Connect Hardware Keyboard

it worked for me (:

Why does the keyboard not appear on the iPhone X simulator in Xcode 9?

The reason this was happening to me was because the hardware keyboard was on, so the soft keyboard wouldn't appear. Shift + CMD + K fixed it. Not sure why that was on by default though.
