To enable a full automator (like automator or Appium ), you must grant these permissions via ADB:
However, and enable the automator directly. This is the core of the "ADB Enable Automator" technique. How to Set Up ADB on Your Computer (Prerequisite) You cannot enable the automator without ADB installed first. Here is the quick setup for Windows, Mac, and Linux.
