Hi,
I am using Appium for Native App and the appium server closes the app and closes the session when trying to finding multiple elements for count or something else from the device. I have updated to version 1.2.4 in which UiSelector has updated successfully to find the appropriate elements. Even though I am having this App closing issue. My server log looks like:

Here, it should get the list of elements and select a random element from that and it fails there frequently.
Is anyone facing this kind of issue? Kindly help to resolve it.
