 *Note: Building for this target requires the corresponding iOS SDK, as provided by Xcode 12+.*
 
-If `rustc` has support for that target and the library artifacts are available,
-then Rust programs can be built for that target:
+From Rust Nightly 1.56.0 (2021-08-03) on the artifacts are shipped pre-compiled:
 
 ```text
-rustc --target aarch64-apple-ios-sim your-code.rs

-On Rust Nightly it is possible to build without the target artifacts available:

 There is no easy way to run simple programs in the iOS simulator.
