I don’t this there is much we could do there. We are just calling the corresponding XCTest APIs there. If these are not working then only Apple is capable of changing that behaviour. Also Appium 1.18 is out of date. Consider updating to the most recent version
Wow, amazing. You are 100% right here. I am indeed partially using Hebrew keyboard.
Thanks!
