Do you mean you compared this result with both environments for iOS 14? Then, could you share the full page source with us on the page?
I am also facing issue with Appium V1.18.3, Electron 7.2.4, Node.js 12.8.1 on Mac OS Catalina 10.15.7 I cannot see many attributes to identify the objects, so used Xpath but Appium is unable to identify objects in simulator for iphone 8 with 14.1 IOS.
Then, how about to use predicate or class chain? https://appiumpro.com/editions/8-how-to-find-elements-in-ios-not-by-xpath
Basically, XPath in iOS is not so reliable while we've tried to support it as possible for backward compatibility with tricks. They could be break in newer versions. But we do not recommend using it as possible.
Search the app XML source using xpath (not recommended, has performance issues) http://appium.io/docs/en/commands/element/find-elements/
Or you can try out the latest appium beta via npm as https://github.com/appium/appium-desktop#connect-to-local-appium-server
