If you're talking about a long touch press (not a long key press), then the only way you'll be able to solve this now is to use the Actions API and construct an actions JSON object according to the w3c spec.

we'll be working on a complex gesture editor that will allow building these kinds of things visually over the next few months

Hi,

Thanks for your reply!!

Do you have any other work around for performing longpress?

We need to Longpress the mobile application and send the different url to that application and to lunch it.

Note: need to do in Manual using appium inspector.

Thanks, Govarthan S

No, no other workaround is available in the inspector at this time.
