I've submitted three versions of my app onto the App Store using the Build and Archive commands. But... Where are those archives?
I've just learnt that I just need them to be able to read crashlogs. My ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/Archives
folder is empty (in fact there is one xarchive file inside it I've just generated now to test a crashlog reading).
Spotlight does not find any .xarchive.
I never been asked to delete or clear anything else than my project builds (Product - clean) when coding next version.
Open the Organizer window in Xcode (menu Window > Organizer)
Click on the Archives icon in the top middle
Select the desired archive by app name and date
Click Show in Finder in the context menu
Archive Organizer
To open it: Xcode menu bar > Window > Organizer > Products > Archives
Path: The archives are stored in /Users/username/Library/Developer/Xcode/Archives/$DATE/Project Name Datetime.xcarchive, it's easier to just right click the archive to show path in the organizer though.

Archive location
By default location is on the same level as Derived Data
folder
<some_path>/Library/Developer/Xcode/Archives
//e.g.
/Users/alex/Library/Developer/Xcode/Archives/2021-05-08/ServiceLocator 08.05.2021, 15.35.xcarchive
To change location
xcodebuild archive -archivePath "<some_path>/<some_name>.xcarchive" <...>
//or
Xcode -> Preferences... -> Locations -> Locations -> Archives
To show Organizer
Window -> Organizer -> Archives
Just to add to this since I'm unable to edit @Codo's answer, but for my version of Xcode (12.3) there was no Archive icon in the top middle. Just a slight difference. Instead, going to Window > Organizer opened a window displaying all my Archives for the current project. Right clicking each shows a menu to delete Archive entries or you can Show in Finder
.
Show in Finder
shows mine are currently located at /Users/username/Library/Developer/Xcode/Archives
and within that directory there's a folder for each date which contains an Archive.
if you choose any ios simulator iphone 7 or iphone 8 or any simulateur you have to change this select to ( Any ios Device ) after that the archive option will display
