FR: Add ability to change iOS Simulator version (X, XR, 6s, etc.) from Android Studio

See original GitHub issue

I am using Android Studio and I can see Open iOS Simulator option in the toolbar, when I tap on it, it always launches iPhone XR simulator.

Is there any way to change the simulator from Android Studio, I know I can open the Xcode and choose the simulator from the list and then come back to Android Studio and select it, but I was looking for a way so that I can set Simulator in Xcode and next time I tap Open iOS Simulator, I am presented with the simulator I selected in Xcode in the last run.
