- If the size of the displayed screen is not correct, check whether the screen sizes have been changed (some devices such as Samsung-s7, provide the ability to change the resolution of the screen in the settings). To fix it just return screen sizes to original.
- Text input is available only for English letters.
- Xiaomi devices by default blocked input simulation. To use MonkeyRunner, you must enable this option in the developer settings.
- Multiple connection working but after start connection with first device you should wait until the Android screen appears. After that you can connect with another.
