message

Is there anyway to handle this system and messages? It seems to be more stable than using adb connect ip:port

As i could check there are two ways to connect with ui2

Connect to a device

There are two ways to connect to the device.

1 - Through WiFi

Suppose device IP is 10.0.0.1 and your PC is in the same network.

import uiautomator2 as u2

d = u2.connect('10.0.0.1') # alias for u2.connect_wifi('10.0.0.1')
print(d.info)

2 - Through USB

Suppose the device serial is 123456f (seen from adb devices)

import uiautomator2 as u2

d = u2.connect('123456f') # alias for u2.connect_usb('123456f')
print(d.info)

3 - Through ADB WiFi

import uiautomator2 as u2

d = u2.connect_adb_wifi("10.0.0.1:5555")

Equals to

Shell: adb connect 10.0.0.1:5555
Python: u2.connect_usb("10.0.0.1:5555")

Thank you
