Is it possible to run Fastlane/Snapshot on device

问题:

Recently, I started using Fastlane's Snapshot tool. However, Snapshot seems to run only in Simulator environment and that creates a problem for me since the app I'm working on is interacting with Whatsapp and Whatsapp cannot be used on simulator. Thus, I cannot take screenshots of some of the interactive steps of my app with Snapshot.

My question is: Are there any settings in Snapfile or some other ways of having Snapshot run on an actual device and not the simulators? Or there is no such option and I would need to think of setting my UI tests differently?

Thank you!

After digging into Fastlane's issue board, found out similar question posted there. So indeed, it is not possible to run Snapshot on a real device atm, but the possibility of having such feature is currently being looked into (dev's comment posted on May 19).
