Describe the bug Objection is not attaching to a running process when using the identifier, but it's working when using the name only. When using the identifier objection always spawns the process (App re-opens on device) instead of attaching.
To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Run command
objection -d -g com.apple.mobilesafari explore

Expected behavior objection should attach when using the identifier of an app
