While inspecting iOS app with Appium, app is freezing. And also while running app with eclipse, app is freezing.
Can someone help me to resolve this issue. IT’S REALLY URGENT.
Thanks in advance
disable ALL logging in app and give a try
I tired it but still remains the same 
are you 100% checked in simulator that nothing logging when your app starting? just menu Debug -> open System log -> now start your app without appium staff.
also look into appium logs what happens… maybe helps
App is freezing after 3 to 4 taps. I dono why.
Yeah. I have commented all the NsLog in the app.
Please find the appium log for the issue

according to logs it just fails to tap - elementId 0 could not be tapped
Yeah. Its because while clicking the previous button app freezes and could not tap the further buttons
if you manually can’t reproduce try to narrow problem. only you know you application better.
try to set let say delay 1 sec between clicks and see if it helps (later need remove it after solving issue).
manually in simulator you can’t reproduce freeze is it?
set Appium server to ERROR logging.
Yes. In simulator its working fine. Only if I run in appium, app is freezing.
And how to set appium server to ERROR logging?
Even delay is not working.
Can you please help me. Its really urgent
Hi,
We’re also facing the same freezing issue with iOS app. While automating our application, App gets freezing and the device is usually hanging and turns into unresponsive state.
Has anyone workaround on this issue, please let us know.
Configuration used:
Mac osx 10.9.5v
iOS 9.3.2v
Appium 1.5.3v
Xcode 7.2.1v
Node 6.3v.
Regards,
Bhaskar.
The freezing issue is still existing even though after disabled all the logging. Hope will have more suggestions other than logging.!!
Thanks,
Bhaskar.
Please check whether it is staging build. It happens when build is in staging
Did anyone find any solution to this?
It is known issue. Disable json logging in client.
so no solution other than disabling logging in the iOS application itself?
The iOS automation goes fine on my machine with 1.5.3 on OSX 10.11.4 but it does not work with OSX 10.11.5 with 1.5.3
