Hello,

When will be GUI for Appium 1.6.x released? I am facing issues while identifying locators on iOS as well as on Android.

Please let us know the expected release date.

Yes, please let us know the release date of the 1.6 GUI! I need it in order to be able to identify locators!

Until then, what is the best alternative for getting iOS locators?

There are some workarounds for your reference. https://medium.com/@chenchaoyi/the-options-of-inspecting-ios-10-app-with-appium-1-6-534ba166b958#.kde7oj94g

The easiest way I’ve found to identify things is to just perform an AppiumDriver.getPageSource() in your test code for the pages you want to inspect and have it copied to the clipboard, and then paste it into your favorite XML viewer.

I’ve ended up doing this even on Appium 1.5.3, as I’ve found the locator to be inaccurate much of the time for the app I’m testing on iOS and Android.
