Description

Sauce Labs have updated their Android emulators, so they now have pre-existing images in the gallery as well as a native cling in the "Apps" section of the Launcher.

This cling interferes with the Camera Appium tests, when they are trying to delete an image from the gallery. (Post-run cleanup).

This cling should be handled by the tests properly.
