Stable, scalable, and detects and inspects elements faster
I rarely use Appium nowadays because I'm now at the managerial level, but the last time I used it, whenever I selected and clicked on an element, Appium was very slow. I tried to debug it, but I still couldn't find the problem, so this is an area for improvement in the solution. Another area for improvement lies with the connector and server. For example, the effort to get into the local machine sometimes causes the emulator to become slow, which then leads to failure in testing, and this is the usual issue I've encountered from Appium. An additional feature I'd like added to Appium in its next release is being able to do automation in iOS without using XPath and the name of the element. In Xcode, you can use previous UI tests for detecting elements, but in Appium, you have to use Xpath and the element name instead of being able to directly put the X-UiPath, which is what you can do in Xcode. In iOS as well, sometimes the element doesn't have a name or a path. Sometimes, there's also no element.

The OCR feature allows objects to be identified based on their characteristics. I miss proper help documentation.
A few objects on the .NET platform are not getting identified precisely among similar objects. Object identification can be improved. I have a .NET application which has many grids. In one of the grids, there is ABCD High and next to that is ABCD. Even after I passed ABCD High as a text property, it is selecting ABCD. I have a table which is colored, where it doesn't even identify all the rows in the table. The other thing I really miss is proper help documentation. Whenever u click on Help it redirects it to videos, which are not extensive. Any documentation which will contain all the methods or step by step implementation of the unique feature in ZAPTEST, would really help.
