Same issue for me when using Indexed XPATH.
i.e. (//XCUIElementTypeButton[@name="CowDetailCell_SaveButton"])[8]

robotframework-appiumlibrary 2.0.0
Appium-Python-Client==2.7.1

[mit4ever]

u can try xpath=(//XCUIElementTypeButton[@name="CowDetailCell_SaveButton"])[8]

You mean prefix the xpath=?

Hello,
Im dealing with the same problem in my project. This type of locator is working only with the xpath= prefix.
I would like to kindly ask you if you plan to solve this issue in any of te upcoming releases?

Thank you,
Michal

As we are reviewing tickets I want to ask if you all are still having issue with this?

Hi, yes, we need to add the xpath= prefix for elements with multiple occurrences.
