Guys please help me, I got stuck and I am going insane… :confused:
I am operating on hybrid app, therefore I am switching my context to WEBVIEW
I need to press and hold a button, so I do:

from appium.webdriver.common.touch_action import TouchAction
            self.pttAction = TouchAction(self.drv)
            self.pttAction.press(self.element).perform()

and I got:

info: --> POST /wd/hub/session/381f1689-ef8b-4605-bcab-122d4f9b545f/touch/perform {“sessionId”:“381f1689-ef8b-4605-bcab-122d4f9b545f”,“actions”:[{“action”:“press”,“options”:{“y”:null,“x”:null,“element”:“0.025453001260757
446-6”}}]}

I’m seeing the same thing with an Ionic hybrid app running on Android.
Any update on this issue?

You need to switch context to Native Webview and it works like a charm
