The same problem… for android devices as nexus 6P on android 8 and xiaomi mi4 on android 6.0.1. It works just on the splashscreen. But when i try to capture on the main grid - java.lang.NullPointerException

So I think this is a different issue. Can you set Appium level to Debug (Preferences -> Mobile -> Appium log level) and post the whole content of .appium file in your project folder?

Hi there,

I’ve faced the same issue as well. Do you know which technologies behind this application? I’ve tried with some of my applications and don’t observe this issue.

Regards

This is an error related to this object can’t be found, not related to any of Katalon Studio execution yet. Can you see if ‘android.widget.Button0 - continue’ object is available from your Test Explorers?

Hi,
Yes, it is available from Test Explorers, also as I mentioned same code works on devices with android version 5, 6.
So, maybe it is an issue with android version 7.0nrd90m with Redmi Note 4 devices.
