If you are forced to use Python 2.7 like me, the solution is to first install a compatible version of Appium-Python-Client and then install your AppiumLibrary. For this, you can run the following commands:

pip install Appium-Python-Client==0.52
pip install robotframework-appiumlibrary

You can install the specific version of the appium library which is compatible with Python 2.7 using below command:

pip install robotframework-appiumlibrary==<compatible_library_version>

where compatible_library_version is the version number compatible with Python 2.7

I would suggest making a report on the AppiumLibrary github, as Python 2.7 should still be fully supported. This is a very big issue afterall.

UPDATE: The issue lies in the appium-python-client dependency, which is no longer supported on Python2. Currently the only feasible option is to update to Python3 and tell the devs that this is an issue. Alternatively you can look to install an older version that is workable for Python2, if that is even possible.

The library you're trying to use doesn't support Python 2.7, because Python 2.7 is old, insecure, and unsupported.

Upgrade to a supported Python version.

From the look of the error message, it uses type hinting, so you will need at least Python 3.5. However, 3.5 will also be end of life in September 2020, so it's worthwhile updating to the latest release, currently 3.8.

You should also use a virtual environment for each of your projects. This will let you easily use different versions of Python and other libraries on your system.
