There's no need in acc and pass. No need in quickstart.py too.

This script simply sends touch events to your phone/tablet, where Instagram app is running. It presses buttons just like you would. So, instead of providing acc and pass just connect device to your computer.

In InstaPy you launch quickstart.py, here you launch insomniac.py. You can find detailed information on how to launch on the main page.

Running on raspberry pi 4 and getting this error:

pi@:~/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools $ ./adb devices
bash: ./adb: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

I guess Google has dropped support for the 32-bit version of the Android SDK....
Any suggestions?

@alexal1

I created tmp.py

from uiautomator import device as d

d.screen.on()
d(text="Clock").click()

And then
python tmp.py and that opens the Clock application.
So uiautomator is working fine

I changed this
import uiautomator
with this
from uiautomator import device as d

Then commented line #33
#device = uiautomator.device
and renamed device to d in your script.

Now I have a progress but still getting errors:

Pls check python --version
My output is Python 2.7.16. For now the script works on Python 2.
I think you've installed uiautomator for Python 3 only.

Oh, my pip was pointing to python 3 instead of python 2 so I had to use specifically pip2 install uiautomator

@xerZV since of v1.2.3 the script works on Python 3. I did the migration today for everybody's convenience.

@alexal1 Nice. I tried it today and it works like a charm! I'm not a python dev but looking forward to learn it so maybe I will fork it and try to improve it somehow.
