@pruthvi.gowda
correct me if I’m wrong

  1. you are trying to switch from a mobile application to a web Application on your pc?
    or
  2. you are trying to switch from the mobile browser to the mobile native application?

if your case is 1
you have to use the following

  1. specify the driver
  2. change the Driver in the DriverFactory
  3. you can use the Katalon WebUI Keywords
String driverpath=System.getProperty('user.dir')+"\\WebDriver\\chromedriver.exe"

System.setProperty('webdriver.chrome.driver', driverpath)

WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver()

DriverFactory.changeWebDriver(driver)

driver.manage().window().maximize()

driver.get(GlobalVariable.appUrl)
