Hello,
I am not able to automate Safari on iPad 2 and iPhone 4 having iOS 7.*. It starts safari launcher but failing with below error message :
Instruments crashed on startup
info: [debug] [INST] 2015-02-27 12:11:26 +0000 Fail: Could not start script, target application is not frontmost.

Are there any possibilities to automate Safari on iPad 2 and iPhone 4 real devices?
I am using latest version of Appium (1.3.5). I can automate Safari on other real iOS devices without any issues.
Thanks,
Paresh
