I want to start iOS simulator for different devices for same app. For example, I want to see my app side by side in all following devices;
Is this possible?
My question is different from Xcode6: Run two instances of the simulator because I need to start simulator for different devices. That post does not answer different device types.

Yes you can do that but there is a limitation in it, you cant debug the log of all the devices simultaneously. To do that first of all run the app on all the simulator on which you want to test your app, then in the command prompt, hit this link
cd /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Applications
After that hit the below command, this will start new simulator whenever you hit this command.
open -n iOS\ Simulator.app
Just press ok on Unable to boot device in current state: Booted Pop up. After that go to hardware>>devices select the device in which you want to test the app, then manually launch the app in each device. After this you will be able to test your app in all the simulators.
Hope this helps you.
