Hey guys, I'm trying to emulate an iPhone 12 Pro to browse instagram. I've tried this method and it works partially!
When I hit the users follower page the lazy scroll starts loading all of the users super fast which cause IG to think a bot. I get a similar behavior when emulating an Iphone 12 directly from the chrome developers tab.
This other method below with appium webdriver doesn't work because the desired_capabilities has been deprecated.
Code:
mobile_emulation = {
"deviceName": "iPhone 12 Pro"
}
user_agent = "Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 14_1 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/14.0 Mobile/15E148 Safari/604.1"
chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
chrome_options.add_experimental_option("mobileEmulation", mobile_emulation)
chrome_options.add_argument(f'--user-agent={user_agent}')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=chrome_options)
driver.get('https://instagram.com')
time.sleep(222)When I hit the users follower page the lazy scroll starts loading all of the users super fast which cause IG to think a bot. I get a similar behavior when emulating an Iphone 12 directly from the chrome developers tab.
This other method below with appium webdriver doesn't work because the desired_capabilities has been deprecated.
Code:
from appium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.desired_capabilities import DesiredCapabilities
# Create a capabilities object
caps = DesiredCapabilities.SAFARI.copy()
# Update the object with the desired capabilities for iPhone 12 Pro
caps.update({
"platformName": "iOS",
"platformVersion": "14.1", # Adjust this based on your Xcode version
"deviceName": "iPhone 12 Pro",
"automationName": "XCUITest"
})
# Start the Appium session
driver = webdriver.Remote(command_executor="http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub", desired_capabilities=caps)
# Navigate to Instagram
driver.get("https://instagram.com")
# End the session
driver.quit()
