Hi Katalon Team,

For automating an android app using Katalon Studio, I tried to add ‘automationName’ property with value - ‘Appium’ (default one) under Project Settings -\>Desired Capabilities-\>Mobile-\> Android. But on starting the “Mobile Object Spy” I can see “automationName”:“uiautomator2” capability instead of ‘Appium’.
