I think you need to update your appium, since new appium version support XCUITest you might be ended to some changes in locators and other setup. This is my suggestion because you need to automate your cases on iOS 10, so in that cases you forced to upgrade the appium.

Coming to your question, if you are not able to access the appium inspector there is workaround.

Are you using Windows or Mac machine? I would suggest to use ~/android-sdk/tools/uiautomatorviewer. This will open one window, you can take screenshot of current screen from connected device and from left pane elements can be inspected.
