Hi Team,
These days more and more applications are providing toast messages instead of an alert just because of very obvious reason of saving a tap on the alert button.
Is the support of toast anywhere in your near future backlog?

I am kind of stuck without it. I don't want to go the OCR way.

Thanks,
Nishant Shah

i suggest to ask DEV increase toast message time to 5-10sec.
this should be enough to see it with appium. with 2-3sec it can be easily missed to detect.

Hi Aleksei,

I don't think its related to increasing the time of toast message.
Its some constraint of UIAutomator itself to identify the toast control.
The reason I am saying is I tried spying the UI of my app (having toast on it) using the UIAutomatorviewer object spy but it failed to recognize the toast.

If you have succeeded in doing so then please share the code. It would be a great help

Thanks in advance,
Nishant Shah

I tried to automate the toast message on Android but UIAutomator can't detect it hence Appium can't either.

@ Aleksei : Please share the approach if you have done it successfully
