@Dave_Evers

Katalon Studio supports Appium 1.12.1 and later versions so you can install the Appium version from 1.12.1 to 1.22.2 (the current latest version)

Hi @duyluong which version Appium is support to identify element on katalon studio with Android 13?

Hi @duyluong or @Elly_Tran,
Regarding @cyntiaverolita’s question…
Will Katalon Studio be supporting Appium v2.0.0 or does it only still support 1.12.1 to 1.22.2?
Thanks Dave

@cyntiaverolita Some of it depends on what technology the app is built with. If it is with jetpack compose there are likely things you will either have to do app side to expose test tags or to use appium 2.0 but if not then you should be able to use appium 1.22.3 which is the latest appium version supported by Katalon Studio. You can use appium 2.0 if you use remote execution instead of android execution with a few workarounds

so we can’t use appium 2.0 for android testing?

@cyntiaverolita It is not fully supported yet. You can use appium 2.0 with android testing if you use this proof of concept version or if you use remote execution and start the appium server manually.

So which version is supported to do mobile automation with Android 12?

Anything below appium 2.0. The most recent version is appium 1.22.3 which should work for all versions of Android. I use it regularly with android versions 9-13.
