Checked app path and chose the .ipa file location

Are you trying to test a .ipa file on a Simulator? That will never work. Here’s why:

.ipa file is compiled for ARM processor, like what is on a real device.

You need to build the .app file for x86 processor, which is what your Mac uses. Have your Developers create this for you, or here is another thread where the problem is addressed and solved:

Appium restarts application in a loop in ios simulator?

I resolved this issue and may help someone else too. To test in the simulator, the .app you will use is the one built against the simulator. You will need to use the path that points to the “Debug-iphonesimulator” folder after building in Xcode. I ran into the same issue and the line below found on the website (Appium Tutorial) helped me. “It’s important to note that this app is built for the simulator. Builds for physical iOS devices only work on physical iOS devices.”
