@Kwanzoe Xcode 15 no longer supports iOS 12 as a deployment target because Apple has dropped support for older iOS versions in its latest Xcode updates. The minimum deployment target is usually updated with new Xcode releases, and Apple typically supports iOS versions that are still receiving security updates and are widely used on current devices. As of Xcode 15, the minimum iOS deployment target has been raised to iOS 13 or newer, which is why iOS 12 does not appear as an option.

If you still need to develop or maintain an app for iOS 12, you’ll need to use an older version of Xcode (such as Xcode 14) that still supports iOS 12.

But in any case, try to use iOS 12.4 support files from here just rename it to the version you need (eg. 12.5.7).

UPD:

Xcode 15 still supports iOS 12 as a deployment target, as seen on the Apple Developer support page. It is available as a deployment target for iOS versions 12 through 17. However, certain features or SDKs may not be compatible with older versions like iOS 12. If you’re unable to see iOS 12 in Xcode 15, ensure your project’s deployment settings are properly configured or consider reinstalling the required iOS 12 simulators. You can verify supported SDK versions here.
