I have some issues working with one of android apps. The application is just for myself at the moment.
I am not familiar with kotlin as good as with Js and Python but it seems to me that everything is close to be similar. I have a task and I need your recommendations before to get started. I have an android app. I need to open that app in the background, parse page and get data (geo location, name etc) then I will apply alghoritm that I need.
Questions:
- Which libraries/tools can I use to open an app in the background, click on some buttons to autentificate myself and then click on each element I need to get data? On other words I need to mimic users behaviour. Important: I need to write a logic and after my program will do identification, recognition and scrapping data w/o asking my permission.
- How to find on a screen an element I need?
- How open and run app in the background?
- How to parse an information on android? I assume that I need to scan a screen and identify some patterns? Or I can get a text data? What If a page is very long and I need to scroll down in order to get all the data? So, I need your recommendations.
thanks.
I am just started and I in the middle of my own research. But there are so many possible options that can work out but I am not sure.
