Hi beloved people,

I’m currently facing an issue when I try the Mobile Recorder feature. I cannot perform the “Scroll To Text” action on my iOS Simulator (iPhone 6s, iOS 15.5).

I always got this error alert.

I tried to search across this forum and also others. But seems not able to find the answer.

Note: This same action is working find on Android Emulator though.

Hi,

I found this similar issue [Failed to find scrollable visible parent with 2 visible children - Issues/Bugs - Appium Discuss](https://discuss.appium.io/t/failed-to-find-scrollable-visible-parent-with-2-visible-children/14716/3) and seems like you should add some waits to make sure the parent is loaded. iOS and Android might have different loading process.
