Different locators on different real devices for android hybrid application

There are multiple real devices connected to system but for same element I am getting different locators [XPath,content description] values on Appium inspector.
I've tried partial XPath matching to perform actions on child node in whole xpath but this pattern(of XPath matching strategy) also doesn't work.

Can you share the remote debugging contents for the said elements?

Do you mean debugging in Chrome Device Inspector to get element and their properties
??

In that case(WEBVIEW-locators) there's no problem but I'm not able to perform click,swipe,tap actions in same context on inspected UI.
