iOS Share Extension does not run on iOS simulator, but runs on my iPhone

Problem:

At some point I noticed my iOS app with an iOS Share Extension can't launch on iOS simulator.

The main error message was this:

Your target is built for iOS but contains embedded content built for the iOS platform (...-share.appex), which is not allowed

The full error message:

error: Your target is built for iOS but contains embedded content built for the iOS platform (instagram-downloader-share.appex), which is not allowed.

Solution:

I went to my main app target settings (not Share Extension's target settings) -> Info tab -> Removed CFBundleSupportedPlatforms key.
