How to uninstall and re-install Appium

There are some cases we cannot define the rootcauses for iOS devices' issues. The best practice is to re-install Appium.

  1. To know how the Appium was installed, run the command which appium.
which appium

Alternatively, you can navigate to Katalon Studio > Preferences > Preferences > Mobile > Appium Directory to check the current Appium path.

  1. Depending on the Appium installation path, you can determine whether Appium was installed with Homebrew or NPM. From NPM:

    npm uninstall -g appium

    From Home Brew:

    brew uninstall appium
  2. Reinstall Appium 3 by running these commands:

npm i --location=global appium@3.0.0
appium driver install xcuitest@7.21.1
