Error "Failed to dispatch gesture"

[sevadro]

Hi,

my floating button is set up to dispatch a gesture over Wikipedia application. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. If it doesn't work, the system log usually contains the error "ERROR failed to dispatch gesture". The MD is listed as having access to accessibility permission. Android 7, device Meizu M6 Note. I'm not sure the answer to this can be straightforward, but maybe MD in the future might be more specific about the reasons why it failed (numberical codes or something)

Thanks

Hola,

mi botón flotante está configurado para enviar un gesto a través de la aplicación Wikipedia. A veces funciona, a veces no. Si no funciona, el registro del sistema generalmente contiene el error "ERROR no pudo enviar el gesto". El médico figura en la lista con acceso al permiso de accesibilidad. Android 7, dispositivo Meizu M6 Note. No estoy seguro de que la respuesta a esto pueda ser sencilla, pero tal vez MD en el futuro podría ser más específico sobre las razones por las que falló (códigos numéricos o algo así)

Gracias

disable and re-enable accessibility services, you can also try rebooting your device.

Thanks, I tried to reenable (toggle to off then on) [MacroDroid UI Interaction] option in the setting's accessibility option. It helped so probably flyme version of this service is buggy or it was in a sleep state until I touched a sensitive setting.

Accessibility services are notoriously unstable on some devices, especially the more obscure device manufacturers. Essentially the toggling on/off of accessibility service or rebooting seems to be the only way to fix it. There is no way an app can detect this and restart the service because it's all controlled at a system level.
