wdio touchPerform is deprecated. You have to use action instead. https://webdriver.io/docs/api/browser/action/
I was having the same issue with this code.

driver.touchPerform([
      {
        action: 'press',
        options: {
          x: ini_x,
          y: ini_y,
        },
      },
      {
        action: 'wait',
        options: {
          ms: 100,
        },
      },
      {
        action: 'moveTo',
        options: {
          x: ini_x,
          y: y,
        },
      },
      {
        action: 'release',
        options: {},
      },
    ]);

So I had to replace it with this:

driver.action('pointer', {
        parameters: { pointerType: 'touch' }
      })
      .move({ x: ini_x, y: ini_y })
      .down()
      .pause(100)
      .move({ duration: 500, x: ini_x, y: y })
      .up()
      .perform();

Btw I'm using wdio + appium + uiautomator2

Got the same issue. Tried with webdriver 8 and 9. @jprodriguez-sw yeah that works, but we are not doing a touchPerform action. We are doing a tap action in Codecept. At least updating the documentation that tap action is not supported anymore would save me some time...
