Mobile MCP is a Model Context Protocol server that provides a platform-agnostic interface for automating iOS and Android applications.
It allows AI agents and LLMs to interact with emulators, simulators, and real devices using accessibility trees and screenshot-based coordinate controls.
- 01
Accessibility-first interaction for fast, reliable UI element identification
- 02
Unified API for iOS and Android across simulators, emulators, and real devices
- 03
Full device control including gestures, app lifecycle management, and screen recording
- 04
Structured, deterministic output for UI element data extraction
- 05
Integration with Mobile Next Cloud for on-demand access to physical devices
Open Source
The software is open-source under the Apache License 2.0. While the server is free to use, Mobile Next offers a paid cloud service (Mobile Next Cloud) for accessing remote physical devices.
Best for
Automating multi-step user journeys, native app testing, data extraction, and scripted form interactions driven by LLMs.
Not ideal for
Tasks requiring pixel-perfect coordinate accuracy on complex UIs where accessibility trees are unavailable, as LLMs may struggle with screenshot-based coordinate estimation.
A powerful, highly capable tool for developers and agents needing to bridge the gap between LLMs and mobile environments, though users should prioritize accessibility-based interaction over coordinate-based tapping for better reliability.
Recent versions have improved accessibility element detection (including StaticText and Images), fixed coordinate scaling bugs, and transitioned to Streamable HTTP for server communication.
