yes i have added 5 sec wait before sending values.

Note : this Element text field restricted as input type number And SendKeys() or setValue() supported char sequence or string.

</div>

no anything bad in code. only use better:

```auto
driver.findElement(MobileBy.id("accNum"));

```

ok if it problem with element switch to use keyboard as it at least works for you.

to send text via keyboard use:

```auto
new Actions(driver).sendKeys(text).perform();

```

i see no ‘perform’ in your code with you try do this.

**Solution:**

1. Click() Text Aria.
2. Enter key by using : KeyEevent in pressKey function  
((AndroidDriver) new DriverConfigurator().getDriver()).pressKey(new KeyEvent(AndroidKey.DIGIT\_1));
