Android Remote Control MCP Update: AI Agents Take Over Phones Without Root
daniele_dll · reddit · 2026-07-31
Android Remote Control MCP has released v1.10.0. This MCP server runs on your phone, allowing AI agents to fully control any app just like a real human.
- Breaking Limits: Running as a first-class accessibility tool, it solves the issue of apps flagging screens as "sensitive" (like the GitHub app), which previously showed agents a black screen.
- Deployment: It now provides signed APKs with registered Google keys and introduces a GMS-free build for devices without Google Mobile Services.
- Security & Compatibility: Includes Netty HTTP/2 fixes, CORS support for browser-based MCP clients, and important security hardening.
