Access iOS Control Center using appium

I am trying to open the Control Center using appium and the following code:

    int halfWidth = driver.manage().window().getSize().width / 2;
    int screenHeight = driver.manage().window().getSize().height;
    driver.swipe(halfWidth, screenHeight-5, halfWidth, screenHeight-300, 500);  // driver is instance of IOSDriver

Instead of opening control centre the app simply draws on the screen upwards from the bottom (using coordinates input). Anyone know how to open Control Center using appium and swipe (or any other way)?

Thanks, Charlie

  • Ok so after a fair amount of investigation it seems to me that this is not possible. If you really need this functionality then I think a tool like eggplant might be appropriate.
