TouchAction to swipe not working iOS Simulator - Appium Java

Question

I am trying to do some UITests with Appium 1.11.1 on iOS Simulator and Swipe is not working

driver connexion looks fine.. I can test driver.reloadApp() and it's working

I have tried some examples found in stack overflow about TouchActions

public static void swipeHorizontal(MobileDriver driver, double startPercentage, double finalPercentage, int duration) throws Exception {
      Dimension size = driver.manage().window().getSize();
      int height =  (int) (size.height/2);
      int startPoint =  (int) (size.getWidth() * startPercentage);
      int endPoint =  (int) (size.getWidth() * finalPercentage);
      new TouchAction(driver).press(new PointOption().point(height, startPoint)).waitAction(new WaitOptions().waitOptions(Duration.ofMillis(duration))).moveTo(new PointOption().point(height, endPoint)).release().perform();
    }

@Test.....{
      swipeHorizontal(driver, 0.80, 0.20, 5);
}

and the test is passed but nothing happens in the screen

I tried this solution also https://stackoverflow.com/a/50388361/7406696 and it's not working with my simulator

My pom.xml is this one

Finally worked removing waitOptions and changing from press() to longPress()

public static void swipeHorizontal(AppiumDriver driver, double startPercentage, double finalPercentage) throws Exception {
      Dimension size = driver.manage().window().getSize();
      int anchor =  (int) (size.height/2);
      int startPoint =  (int) (size.width * startPercentage);
      int endPoint =  (int) (size.width * finalPercentage);
      new TouchAction(driver).longPress(new PointOption().point(startPoint, anchor)).moveTo(new PointOption().point(endPoint, anchor)).release().perform();
  }


@Test..... {
      swipeHorizontal(driver, 0.80, 0.20);  
}
