I downloaded Xcode 14 beta and I have my Visual Studio pointing to that as the SDK location. I don't see any simulators to run in the drop down. Using VS Mac 2022 fully updated. I did notice in the simulator drop down for 'iOS Simulators: Lower the deployment target to see the older target or check your Apple SDK Path'.

Am I missing something?

Same issue here, the only alternative that I found is to deploy the application on a physical device that runs iOS 16 beta version and test it.

There doesn't appear to be an official Visual Studio/Xamarin.iOS update out yet that supports iOS 16 and XCode 14 which I believe will be first available on the preview channel. According to this, this situation is not entirely unexpected: https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/wiki/Xcode-Summer-Expectations although like you, there are issues with our Xamarin app in iOS 16 that need to be addressed, and I am anxiously awaiting official support.

If you need to get the simulator running you can follow the advice here: https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/15581 and download the PKG-Xamarin.iOS-notorizied.pkg package on the the xcode14 branch of xamarin-macios https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/commits/xcode14 Once I installed the pkg, the simulators were available. It is worth noting that you also need to have the xcode 14 beta installed, and may need to change your SDK path in Visual Studio to the xcode 14 beta.
