I'm trying to simulate my app on ios simulator with ionic. But when I run:
ionic build ios
ionic emulate ios
My app doesn't appear on the simulator. What should I do?

You need to install IOS-Sim tool. The ios-sim tool is a command-line utility that launches an iOS application on the iOS Simulator.
Apply this command on terminal window:
$ sudo npm install ios-sim -g

Make sure that you have added the iOS platform to the project and verify that you have the iOS-Sim tool. If this is the problem you should a message that you are missing any of those two in the terminal.

if you are using visual studio, you need to configure the remote ios agent. follow this documentation https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/dn757054.aspx#ios to configure and test you application

Sometimes, an ionic app can take a really long time to load on the simulator. First try waiting.
Second, if it still doesn't load, know that the simulator is a lot pickier about what it will run and not run than the browser. Check if you app works in the browser. Try a different browser (such as Firefox). If it does not, debug from there. If it does work in the browser, run your code through a linter to find that one semi-colon that your browser didn't care about.

Try start do it on xcode(in each my ionic/cordova project i have to use some native solutions to build application for iOS i use xcode for android i use android studio)
I know that different platform need some hours of adapt but this knowledge is very important

Try remove and add platform again.
ionic platform rm ios
and
ionic platform add ios
