I am working on automating testcases for a mobile application in Python and I have recently started facing an issue. Thing were working completely fine earlier but now for some reason the following error pops up. Any idea on how to solve this issue?

Solution: What you need to do is to uninstall uiautomator apps. Go to Android settings → Apps. Then search for uiautomator, 2 apps will pop up. Uninstall those and you’ll be good to go. This error occurs when the sessions crash over and over again so change your code in such a way that if it causes some error, it automatically quits the driver.
Hi, it happened to me now for the second time.
I am testing both android and ios using mac. As well I am using one appium port.
I quit all the emulators/simulators I had open and any appium server as well.
Then, I relaunched the only simulator I wanted to use and an appium server and all worked fine again.
Hope it helps.
Additionally, I think it is an appium related issue since I saw somewhere in appium logs that it is
intentionally
switching sessions ids…
As well, maybe it is worth to try upload an issue in appium github repo and see there, or here as well.
Which appium version do you use? I updated lately and it didn’t happen to me before.

Could you please confirm how the issue got resolved? I’m seeing the same issue now
"Encountered internal error running command: io.appium.uiautomator2.common.exceptions.NoSuchDriverException: The session identified by 368fb888-8cf7-4701-927c-a1b9f2768cd7 is not known "

Thanks
@Umer_Saeed
, your suggestion solve the issue.
To be specific, I uninstalled these two apps
io.appium.uiautomator2.server
io.appium.uiautomator2.server.test
I use these commands to uninstall in such situations:
adb uninstall io.appium.uiautomator2.server
adb uninstall io.appium.uiautomator2.server.test
adb uninstall io.appium.unlock
adb uninstall io.appium.settings
hey
@Umer_Saeed
lately I am working on automation scripts using YAML, R2
While starting session in appium- I am getting this error-

I can’t find uiautomator in Android settings -> Apps
