You can save images from Safari.

I don't think there is a different (easier) way.

Maybe you could type in a "file://localhost/..." URL into Safari on the simulator to load a photo from somewhere on your Mac? – progrmr Jun 23 '10 at 04:03
Not localhost, but I suppose file://Users/username/... should work – Pieter Jongsma Jun 23 '10 at 09:16

Just drag-and-drop from Mac to Simulator screen will work. No need of URL writing. Click-and-hold the opened image in safari and save to camera roll. – ravinsp Aug 13 '11 at 15:25

if you drag and drop from the OS onto the simulator, it will load the image into safari, where you can then save to your camera roll

I've done this by writing a little throwaway app that contains the images I want, then use the UIImageWriteToSavedPhotosAlbum API call to save them from my bundle.
