iOS 8.1 Simulator always uses US keyboard layout despite german hardware keyboard

ios, ios-simulator, keyboard, xcode

Solution

It's iOS 8.1 Simulator's bugs.

I could tested language by setting the "Application Language" in the used scheme.

Go to Product > Scheme > Edit Scheme... or press cmd + Y.

Problem

For some reason, I cannot enter text with my native german keyboard into iOS Simulator any more. After downloading Xcode 6.1 (which contains iOS 8.1), I was stuck with the US layout. I tried things like changing all Hardware/Keyboard settings, deleting `~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iphonesimulator.plist`, and resetting the iOS simulator. Nothing helped! Should I reinstall the complete package?
