Flutter - iOS Simulator "not supported devices connected"

For some reason, iOS Simulator stopped working. I can open iOS Simulator, but Android Studio not recognizes it. I've already tried to run via terminal, but it says not supported devices connected.

When I run flutter doctor it returns:

Doctor summary (to see all details, run flutter doctor -v):
[✓] Flutter (Channel stable, v1.12.13+hotfix.8, on Mac OS X 10.12.6 16G2136, locale pt-US)

[✓] Android toolchain - develop for Android devices (Android SDK version 28.0.3)
[!] Xcode - develop for iOS and macOS (Xcode 9.2)
    ✗ Flutter requires a minimum Xcode version of 11.0.0.
      Download the latest version or update via the Mac App Store.
[✓] Android Studio (version 3.4)
[✓] VS Code (version 1.43.2)
[!] Connected device
    ! No devices available

! Doctor found issues in 2 categories.

Since I'm on a Macbook 2011, I won't be able to upgrade Xcode. Is it possible to downgrade Flutter and Xcode to an older stable version? Would this solve the problem?

Thanks

If Android Studio does not recognize ios simulator even though you can separately open simulator on your Mac, you have to add command line tool on Xcode.

open Xcode then go to Xcode > preferences > select Locations tab. Then select Xcode version from the drop-down menu.

enter image description here

Open ios simulator again. Then Android Studio will recognize your device.
