Appium is confusing.
Tapkit is easy.

Appium’s iPhone setup involves Xcode, code signing, and Developer Mode on every phone. With Tapkit, download the Mac app, connect your iPhone, and get started in minutes.

An Appium setup checklist: install Xcode, install XCUITest, set up signing, and enable Developer Mode.

What Appium asks you to set up.

A stack of developer tools.

Appium needs Xcode, its iPhone driver, and WebDriverAgent. Tapkit brings phone control into one Mac app.

Developer Mode on every iPhone.

Appium requires Developer Mode on each iPhone. Tapkit works without it, so there’s no need to turn it on.

Code signing and profiles.

Appium’s helper app needs a valid signing profile to run. With Tapkit, there’s nothing for you to build or sign.

Let your agent get to work.
