I have an Android phone that has a feature where pressing and holding the Overview button will close all open apps and pressing and holding the Home button will open up the Google Assistant. Mobile keyword includes Press Home but not press and hold. I have tried Tap and Hold and Tap and Hold at Position. Tap and Hold does not work as the Home, Back and Overview buttons are not being picked up by the Mobile Spy/Recorder so I can’t define the objects to Tap and Hold. Tap and Hold at Position fails with an error stating `Coordinate [x=540.0, y=2100.0] is outside of element rect: [0,0][1080,2016]` This makes me believe Katalon is not looking below 2016 (where the Home, Back and Overview buttons are). The device full size is 1080 x 2160. Does anyone know how to press and hold on these buttons at the bottom of the screen? ---

@thongnmtran - Sorry to tag you again but your previous advice has been so useful - thank you! What are your thoughts on this query? In one of my tests I’m also trying to verify element visible on the clock, and battery icon when in battery saver mode which are both at the top of the screen above the Android notifications. In another test, I have an app that loads in full screen mode and some of the buttons are at the bottom of the screen where Katalon is unable to detect whilst running (uiautomater whilst recording/spy tool can interact with these elements fine) ---

Hi @mohammad.arif, Thanks for remembering me /=) To press and hold on some button, you could do the same as the previous post, but change the method to **driver.“longPressKey”**. ```groovy import com.kms.katalon.core.mobile.keyword.internal.MobileDriverFactory import io.appium.java_client.android.AndroidDriver import io.appium.java_client.MobileElement import io.appium.java_client.android.nativekey.AndroidKey import io.appium.java_client.android.nativekey.KeyEvent AndroidDriver driver = MobileDriverFactory.getDriver() driver.longPressKey(new KeyEvent(AndroidKey.HOME)) ``` > If this not work, It could be because of not holding long enough. In that case, you could try for some other keys like **AndroidKey.POWER** to see if this method really does something different. ---

I am also having similar issue while trying to run the test on Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL with Android 11 and API 30. But this error is not happening on Pixel 3a or Pixel 3 simulator. Same error is observed on real device Samsung Galaxy S20FE. When I tried to device width and height the Kalaton is showing different size than the actual device size. Please let me know if anyone have a solution or workaround for this.

Hi @ngeorge, It’s because your element is not in the current viewport. You can add [Scroll To Text](https://docs.katalon.com/katalon-studio/docs/mobile-scroll-to-text.html#example) keyword before clicking on the object. ```auto Mobile.scrollToText('Text of element') Mobile.tap(findTestObject(“Object Repository/PetSafe PageObjects/User Home Page/Scoop Free/Scoop Free - SETTINGS”), 3, CONTINUE_ON_FAILURE) ``` ---

@ngeorge, @we.ayt You guys can try this script as a workaround: ```auto import static com.kms.katalon.core.testobject.ObjectRepository.findTestObject import com.kms.katalon.core.mobile.helper.MobileElementCommonHelper import io.appium.java_client.MobileElement MobileElement element = MobileElementCommonHelper.findElement(findTestObject('element id'), 10) element.click() ``` ---
