you need switch to:
new TouchAction(this).press(startx, starty).waitAction(duration).moveTo(endx, endy).release().perform();

some other example may look here - https://github.com/appium/java-client/blob/master/src/test/java/io/appium/java_client/android/AndroidTouchTest.java458

Those coordinates depend on the size of your android. If you want to continue to use percentage you can use the following method:

public static void swipeHorizontal(AppiumDriver driver, double startPercentage, double finalPercentage, double anchorPercentage, int duration) throws Exception {
    Dimension size = driver.manage().window().getSize();
    int anchor = (int) (size.height * anchorPercentage);
    int startPoint = (int) (size.width * startPercentage);
    int endPoint = (int) (size.width * finalPercentage);
    new TouchAction(driver).press(startPoint, anchor).waitAction(duration).moveTo(endPoint, anchor).release().perform();

    //In documentation they mention moveTo coordinates are relative to initial ones, but thats not happening. When it does we need to use the function below
    //new TouchAction(driver).press(startPoint, anchor).waitAction(duration).moveTo(endPoint-startPoint,0).release().perform();
}

And calling it with the value from your topic would be:

swipeHorizontal(driver,0.9,0.01,0.5,3000);

Notice the comments about absolute/relative values

and i suggest to get coordinates directly from element you trying to scroll. not the whole screen.

As you said, it is the same format... You just exchange height for width

public static void swipeVertical(AppiumDriver driver, double startPercentage, double finalPercentage, double anchorPercentage, int duration) throws Exception {
    Dimension size = driver.manage().window().getSize();
    int anchor = (int) (size.width * anchorPercentage);
    int startPoint = (int) (size.height * startPercentage);
    int endPoint = (int) (size.height * finalPercentage);
    new TouchAction(driver).press(anchor, startPoint).waitAction(duration).moveTo(anchor, endPoint).release().perform();

    //In documentation they mention moveTo coordinates are relative to initial ones, but thats not happening. When it does we need to use the function below
    //new TouchAction(driver).press(anchor, startPoint).waitAction(duration).moveTo(0,endPoint-startPoint).release().perform();
}

swipeVertical(driver,0.9,0.1,0.5,3000);

Never tried. I think it works only with automator2. But check this test testToastMSGIsDisplayed() in

New "issues" should be open in new topics. What happens when you run driver.hideKeyboard() ? Post the logs in a new topic. Thanks

Looping @Al_Imran for this… How did you fixed yours? Thanks

Here’s how I placed it. I just copied the code above.

I called the method to my test.java class:

with Regards to Settings, I don’t have also the 'Enable Pointer location and Show touches ’ option. I’m currently using Samsung Galaxy S8. Thank you. @Al_Imran

Hi,

Here is detailed video on how you can swipe from left to right, right to left, from top to bottom and from bottom to top using Appium.

Thanks,

Hi

I am new to Appium and struggling on calling a swipe method from left to right.

As per you video, driver is not having method called swipe in its intelligence.

I have tried using calling TouchAction class as well but while giving driver as argument it is
throwing the below error all the time. I am Struck and not able to move further.

Please help here

try casting driver to AppiumDriver:

 new TouchAction((AppiumDriver) driver)

Still No progress. I am getting below error.

Below is my Capability SetUp. Please let me know If any where am doing wrong.

public class ExampleHorizontalSwipe {
//AndroidDriver driver;
WebDriver driver;

@Test(priority=0)
public void setUp() throws MalformedURLException
{
	
	
	DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
	
	capabilities.setCapability("deviceName", "NexusTest");
	capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.BROWSER_NAME, "Android");
	capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.VERSION, "5.0.1");
	capabilities.setCapability("platformName", "Android");
	capabilities.setCapability("...");
	capabilities.setCapability("appActivity", "...");
	driver = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub"), capabilities);
	driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(15, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

// driver = new AndroidDriver(new URL(“http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub”), capabilities);
// driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(15, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
}

Issue Resolved Closing… Thank You

Hi @praveen0314 can you please post your code, after making which changes this swipe started working to you

Hi All, Finally I could able to resolve the issue of swiping for

Android
Hybrid App
Samsung 8 Device

before start of swiping use the switching to the Native context, after doing the swipe action

         //Find swipe start and end point from screen's.

	//Find startx point which is at right side of screen.
	int startx = (int) (size.width * 0.70);

	//Find endx point which is at left side of screen.
	int endx = (int) (size.width * 0.30);

	//Find vertical point where you wants to swipe. It is in middle of screen height.
	int starty = size.height / 2;

	System.out.println("startx = " + startx + " ,endx = " + endx + " , starty = " + starty);

	//Swipe from Right to Left.
	if(swipingDirection == Swipe.Left)
	((AndroidDriver<WebElement>)getInstance()).swipe(startx, starty, endx, starty, 2000);

	//Swipe from Left to Right.
	if(swipingDirection == Swipe.Right)
	((AndroidDriver<WebElement>)getInstance()).swipe(endx, starty, startx, starty, 2000);

switch back to WebContext to continue working with elements. Hope this solution helps

Watch it https://youtu.be/BkFQgtfzkMI22

I’ve consolidated my findings in https://discuss.appium.io/t/swipe-scroll-best-practice-with-java-client-5/18589/1722

That was for an old client… in 5.0.4 I use:

Duration.ofMillis(duration)  

with duration being in miliseconds (2000, for instance).

If you using latest java client v6 beta then it has changed again.
