How to hide an «Annoying Element» with appium

Support
1

Sometimes it happens that an element in the work is very annoying and its absence is better.
In Selenium below is the code I use to hide the annoying elements.

driver.execute_script('document.querySelector("{}").style.display = "none";'.format('div.xvbhtw8.x1lq5wgf.xgqcy7u.x30kzoy.x9jhf4c.x1rj4ezl.x1n2onr6.xfr5jun.xexx8yu.x4uap5. x18d9i69.xkhd6sd'))

In fact, I manually set the «-- display --» Tag of that element in css as “none”.

But this method doesn’t work in appium!
Does anyone know a way to hide an element?

it will work with Appium if your app will be a WebView. With native apps no such functionality.
