Xcode 9 simulator remove frames

Question

The new simulator comes with the frames that make it look more like a phone in Xcode 9 beta. Is there any way to remove this frames and make it look more like the simulator in Xcode 8?

Answer 1

Yes there is and it was the first thing I removed. To remove the frames do the following:

1. Click on the simulator
2. Go to Window (top menu)
3. Click on Show Device Bezels (which should have a checkmark on it)

The simulator will now have the same look as the one in Xcode 8.

What is it about the bezels you don't like? – Captious

@russbishop, late reply but I like when the UI is minimized. – Envious

@Captious Bezel takes up entirely too much space on the screen. – Reamer
