"WaitForControlWithText" only works in Legacy Mode

Question

Hi all!I usually test an Android mobile app that displays several Toasts messages. I am fine connecting my phone to the laptop and using the function WaitForControlWithText in Legacy Mode.&nbsp;My question is: if I want to test this app by using BitBar instead, I'll need to change the Mobile Support type configuration from&nbsp;Legacy Mode to Mobile device cloud (BitBar and local Appium)... and therefore I will not be able to use the WaitForControlWithText function anymore... which is only supported in Legacy Mode.&nbsp;How can I check for Android-Toast values when using the Mobile Support type "Mobile device cloud (BitBar and local Appium)"?Is there any workaround?&nbsp;Tks in advance!BR,Damian.-

Hey AlexKaras thank you for your suggestion... I can't seem to be able to hit the element "android.widget.Toast" from within the TestComplete Script, though.

But I guess the only way I haven't still tried is by executing a python script (Selenium) from the TestComplete Script...

I will post the result if I am successful.

Tks again.

BR!

Hi ! Tks for your answer, but I don't understand it.On Android Studio (Java), I am actually using the Toast.makeText() method.&nbsp;What I'm asking is if there is a workaround on the TestComplete side.- I am currently testing by using Legacy Mode and function WaitForControlWithText.- I would like to use Mobile device cloud (BitBar and local Appium) instead of Legacy Mode; in this scenario,the function WaitForControlWithText does not work.- Is there a workaround to detect Android Toasts when using e Mobile device cloud (BitBar and local Appium) mode?&nbsp;Any comments are welcome.Thanks!

No BIOS settings should be changed. This answer does not make any sense... Are there some kind of automtated answers on the forum?&nbsp;BR&nbsp;

Hi,
&nbsp;
I found but did not try this post:&nbsp;https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30458931/how-to-test-android-toast-messages-in-appium-selenium-java
Can you check if suggested&nbsp;"/hierarchy/android.widget.Toast" works with .FindElementByXPath() method and if the mentioned&nbsp;.getText() method exists for the found object?
