Device shake command

On iOS: Triggers a virtual shake gesture on the device to activate features or modes that rely on physical shaking, such as entering development or test mode. You can also use it to trigger the React Native development menu in debuggable apps.

On Android: Only triggers the React Native development menu in debuggable apps. This feature requires enablement. To request this feature for your cloud, contact Perfecto Support.

Limitations

Shake gesture simulation is supported on Android 11 and later. On earlier versions, availability may vary depending on the device manufacturer and system configuration. On some devices, especially those running Android 9 or missing system components, the shake gesture may not function as expected.
